12 days left til vegas

i head out west on april 9th, and i'll get a few days to hang in las vegas before the crew arrives on the 12th. i figure i'll probably rent a car and check out the grand canyon for a day, and also head up to red rock canyon and do a ride up there. everybody raved about that loop last year, i distinctly remember stories of mark bombing the downhills at 50mph racing trucks or something....probably with no shirt on...

training wise, i actually haven't got a lot of riding in at all. looking back at last year i really didn't ride much before i hit san diego either.....last year at this point i had only gotten 15 rides in since jan 1, and as it turns out i've done the same amount this year. i have got 33 runs in and 19 days of XC skiing, so hopefully that fitness will carry over.

i just finished up my radiology block so i'll have the next week off and will get some definite saddle time in (if this rain lets up!)
heres a screenshot of my garmin/sporttracks file the ride i did up wachusett mtn this week (more of just a test to see how the these pics post)
