Race #2

Cory's 2nd race of the season took place on Mount Washington near Courtenay, BC on February 21 & 22, 2009. It was our first visit to Mount Washington so something new this time around.


First, there was a training day, with new drills and guest coach Paul. Getting started 8am, with
fellow Blue Streaks: (Cory is on the right)
