Return to MOAB!

What to do when you are three weeks out of an Ironman race and heading into your most challenging week of training? GO TO MOAB!!! What else???

Yes, this was already planned, months ago...and we headed out of town (just Corey and I) to Corey's favorite place on earth. We loaded up four bikes (One massive down-hill, one single speed Mountain Bike, one full suspension and one Road Bike...OF COURSE!)

We headed out of Post Falls at 10:00 pm...and at 3:00 am we found ourselves safely snuggled up next to a 1940's fuel pump at Melrose Montana. We were DARN close to running out of gas. We get 335 miles to a tank...we were at 334. The bar with the fuel pump was not open and so we slept until someone arrived. Lucky for us a "local" arrived at the pump at 6 am and was fueling and we were able to get some gas ourselves!!! YES...

We rolled into Moab on Sunday at 5:00 pm...met up with our friends from Sacramento {The Brandts (Jon and Jenn), the Upchurches (Mike and Erin), the Conwells (Chris and Allyson), Joe Carpenter and James Donely}. AT Last...with our friends in Moab...let the fun begin!!
