Hockey, Spin, Hockey, Hockey, Hockey and more Hockey.

Can you spot the raven?

Last week's time on the bike was limited to Jeff's spin class. It felt great to get the pedals moving again, even if I was going nowhere while I was doing it.


The weekend was a tournament weekend with the hockey girls. Suz piece-mealed a team together and we all went out to Golden to enjoy the mountains and some ice time. To keep the biking theme going, we roped Sarah into dusting off her skates for the first time in 7 years. So we had three Spin Sisters on the ice all weekend. Woo!

On Saturday, we took the first game easily then lost the second game 2-1. Sunday morning, with some ass-dragging, we won the next game and earned the chance to play for second place. After a nasty barfy breakfast (who deep-fries french toast?!) at a local spot, we won our fourth game and took home the gold-painted hockey stick and bottle of schnapps. That's right!

Sunday morning coffee.

All in all a great weekend spent on the ice and inside the clouds shrouding Kicking Horse resort. Thanks to Sarah for letting Sante and I bunk at her place on the mountain for the weekend!

This morning ... Monday ... brought a wake-up temperature of +9C. That meant a ride downtown instead of sitting in traffic! I was a little nervous on the path but I only saw one patch of wet that had a little white in it. :) Clear riding in and a glorious sunny ride home at the end of my workday. Ah, I haven't seen the sun in a couple of weeks!
