Hangin' in the Hood!

Wednesday night after Todd and Chris finished their dayshift in Red Deer, they drove out to Canmore and picked me up, and we headed off to Hood River, Oregon.


We arrived at about 8am Thursday morning, somewhat tired, but we had breakfast, set up camp, and the two diehards (that would be Todd and Chris!) spent the afternoon kiting at the Sand Bar. The winds were epic and had we not all been sleep-deprived, I'm sure they would have ridden for much more than three hours!

Yesterday (Friday) was just as windy, so the boys rode for several hours again in 9 metre conditions. Chris even experienced his first barge!! And I stealthed around where some young punks were hucking tricks and snapped a few photos of the action.



The weather is a bit different this morning, but as long as there is even a breath of wind, Todd and Chris will be in their glory. So I guess I better finish my post and my chai tea latte and get these guys to the sand bar!!


Cheers!
