KCCX Nats 2008 Day 6&7

Nationals took such a toll on me that I'm finally getting to the last update. I had to get my life back to normal. I also realized Christmas is next Thursday and I had to buy gifts....So, here you are the final post of KCCX Nats 2008

Thru out week the announcers made references to Jeb and Katie b/c they came out of the same cycling club First State Velo Sport/DCCofD (Delaware Cross Coalition of Delaware) . Tom got a shout out during Katie's races for being one of the greatest supporters of Delaware CycloCross Racing.

Elite Woman Podium

This is what the venue looked like during the race week

Here's what it looked like an hour after the Elite podium

We were on the way home and we had talked to Jeb, who was waiting for a flight that got delayed. He hinted to pick him up, but we didn't pick up on it. Jeb's mom, La La, called a few minutes later asking where we were. I said 5 minutes from the Air port (we were really 30 minutes past the air port) She told us we could pick him up in the Crafter + Drafter and drive him back to DE. We made a U-turn at the next exit.

The entire drive was in snow/sleet/rain, until we him dry West Virginia.
