Stuart was eating a turkey sandwich. Now you know why the two weims are so focused.

Observation post........

Rose standing on the right on top of a bike jump with Winston beside her. Both had previously run up the jump onto the other side of the trial. Elevation gain with this trail. I still had to climb up and over those logs which were very slippery with the snow. The weims are always waiting for me, just not fast enough!

Rose on the left side with Cervelo and then with Lily.
