With my lust for cycling never waining here is the new Ritchey cross bike that I am absolutely lusting over. Perhaps soon this bike will be within my reach. Fingers Crossed. No pun intended.

Generally I would say that I think the whole TT/Triathlon bike scene is well.....gay. But I must say, that looks like a hell of a lot of fun. Scott, you nailed it, that bike is hott.

LEGO party!
One of the last things we needed to do before summer holidays are over was to have a LEGO party. I have to admit, I still LOVE Lego and had a fantastic time.
This is Amelia's Ice Cream shop. The owners were very nice and gave us free ice cream and pancakes. Mmmm.
A Huge Bionicle Julian and a friend built last week.
Julian's driving cannon.
The Pigeon Assault Ship built by Julian.
My contribution was a WASP speeder.

Lake Louise to Jasper Road Trip
Here are a few pics from our LL to Jasper trip last month. Sorry for the delay. 11 of us ended up riding this great two day tour with 136 km of riding on Day 1 and 96 on Day 2. Next weekend we are planning a ride from Revelstoke to Nakusp to Kaslo. Pics will be available from that ride as well.
Michael leading us up the approach to the big climb of Day 1, Sunwapta Pass.
Will loading up the bikes at the end of our trip.
Cathy dropping us on the big climb.
The group about 12km from the finish. All quite cold and ready for pizza and beer by this point. A big 27km stage inflicted some mental damage as those hills just kept coming during the monsoon rains.
Chris leads out on stage 4 on the first day.
Luke shows that Pop Tart who's boss in our camp at the Columbia Icefields.
Cole looks cool as a cucumber after the big Sunwapta climb. He rode every km of that trip. He made his ski coach happy!
Cathy looks way too relaxed. We need bigger climbs on the next ride.
A short break before taking the last stage of Day 1 up Sunwapta Pass which is visible in the background. Me, Michael, Cole, Cathy, Luke, Chris and Will.

As always Meems is a great sister and lets J use her bike. She selected the scooter as her tool of choice.
Getting more comfortable in the park.
