Day Zero



Blue Star and AV are busy working on their bikes, packing up the Camelbaks and dialing in all the gear for the official start of the BC Bike Race tomorrow. So, today's update comes from me, SLR, official support team member for Mafia Racing.

I guess you could call Day Zero the official start of the race. A full day of travel and logistics to get us started and ready for the next 7 days. Day Zero brought us first by Ferry to Vancouver Island, not far from Victoria and then to Shawnigan Lake School for check in and pre-race meeting.

BC Ferries rock!


Grande Americanos and Mafia Racing with support ladies on the ferry


I think these two teams will go 1 & 2, don't you?


A little time to spin the legs out before dinner.


Pre-race meeting at Hogwarts, I mean Shawnigan Lake School


Off now for some rest and an early morning tomorrow. Breakfast at 7 and the gun goes off at 9. More stories and photos to come. Thanks for reading.

Go Blue Star !!! Are you feeling better ? 100% ? We are making the same pre-ride preparations for the LiveSTRONG in Portland, tomorrow. It is hot like an oven here today, 91 degrees predicted for the ride tomorrow. Pictures to follow.
Love,
In Law Star and Auntie M.
