For those interested there is going to be a National showing of the documentary about this year's Leadville 100 race at theaters nationwide this Thursday and ONLY this Thursday. You will have to check your local theaters to see who is showing it. It is called

RACE AGAINST THE SKY

Thanks for the reminder!

Heck, even if you're not a mountain biker I think you'd enjoy watching this. The Leadville 100 is amazing.

Made my first visit to Leadville this Summer, saw the preview for this in the theatre last weekend, looking forward to seeing it.

Many thanks for the heads up. I had not heard a thing about it but will be there on Thursday.

It would be quite an accomplishment to earn a belt buckle at Leadville let alone win it the way Lance did this year!

My wife has just missed the buckle a couple of times and I'm hoping she gets it next year so I don't have to hear about it anymore

She must be a pretty solid rider and I hope she does get that buckle! Colorado has some great riding and I hope to get down there again soon.

I rarely ride with her anymore... b/c I spend most of the time bleeding or cussing or both

She loves the really technical crap and she nearly kills me all the time. Last year at MOAB after Slickrock I spent over an hour in the medic tent with 6 paramedics trying to get all the cactus needles out of my shoulder and back. When I wrecked my skin was stretched... cactus spines went in deep muscle and most broke off and then the skin stretched back over them and the paramedics were trying to stretch my skin to match the holes with the lumps under the skin to extract them

Anyhoo, I can't keep up with her

Just noticed the moose, well done! I had my dogs pointing moose in Saskatchewan the other day. The photo is pretty bizarre to see a GSP pointing a moose on rolling yellow plains. Have you seen the photos of the twin albino moose in Michigan? Amazingly beautiful!
