Adversity
Adversity was the name of the game on our ride up to Mabel Lake.
The ride started off early Thursday morning with a positive vibe felt throughout the group. The team ripped it up along Lougheed in a pace line with solid pulls put in by all. The trip saw a few flat tires and a mechanical that put our ride on the burners for a stop in Hope. Once we had everything back in running order the Coquihalla was ready for us to conquer. The climb was long but everyone threw down a huge effort to crest the summit. The Argon 18 bikes performed better than any bikes we had ridden.
Day 2 started us off in Kamloops under sunny skies and a fresh team. The ride out of Kamloops was all downhill, which would have been a relief if it wasn't for Richard pushing the pace. Great team work pulled us along the undulating hills into Enderby. A quick 30km brought us to Mabel Lake and the end of our epic journey.
Carbo-Pro 1200 fueled all the riders up the way and Elete kept the cramps at bay. Not one cramp was experienced by the riders. Our Polar cycling computers were amazing as they constantly read out the altitude, incline of hills, temperature, heart rate and speed. The full carbon frames and components provided by Argon 18, FSA, and Sram, and Specialized kept all of our backsides comfortable throughout the km's.
Solid work team!
