Kern Stage Race rehash.....

Four races in three days......I have never raced so much, eaten so much and never had so much fun. This team is incredible! Velo Bella was the largest in numbers of all the teams, in all categories and it was a Bella podium sweep, too!

Miss Mary and Tyler setting up Bella camp at Stage #1, the 10-mile time trial. Tons o'fun!

Michael, Jeff, Tyler and Miss Mary took great care of us.....no detail was left out. We are so fortunate to have this type of suppport. I know the other teams were green with envy.

The team dinner-not only did we have a terrific pasta meal and great conversation, we had some fun strategy talk going on.

This was the view down towards Lake Isabella.

We just finished Stage #4, the hilly road race. All of these races were pretty high up and driving the RV, proved to be a challenge in some spots....low trees, banked pavement and cows in the road.

After each race, we would gather to talk about what happened....eating and drinking the entire time, of course! This was taken at Stage #4, the hilly road race.

Sabine and Michael's kitty had free reign of the RV. Here she is peering out of the screen door. Cute!
