I had a great race this year at the Chile Challenge Cat 1 Women's XC race in Angel Fire, NM on June 5, 2010. The temperatures were hotter than average for the time of year, which was just another added aspect to an already infamous course. I was glad that I had my Rudy Project helmet, because the large vents let the sweat evaporate quickly and kept me cool. This being the first “climbing” race of the season, I was surprised to learn how well my SRAM XX drivetrain worked with my SCOTT Spark frame. The power transfer was so efficient I seemed to reach the summit at almost an effortless pace. The real key to doing well that day was my PowerBar Endurance. It has such a light taste that I was able to drink as much as I needed even though it was oppressively hot.
I can't wait to go back next year!
