Carena Dean: Yak Attack Photo's #3
http://carenadean.blogspot.com/2012/04/yak-attack-photos-3.html
Tuesday, April 10, 2012. Yak Attack Photo's #3. I had to add this picture as a lot of time went into it. Jeremy and Jon set up in hopes to capture the last rider coming through. They waited and waited and waited until this local passed by and called it good. After a long 12hr day they made it to Mananag only to find out that our last rider turned back this morning. Entering the higher elevations and snow. From heat, wind, snow, mud, and dirt we passed through every condition imaginable in a bike race.

Carena Dean: Yak Attack Photo's #1
http://carenadean.blogspot.com/2012/04/yak-attack-photos-1.html
Tuesday, April 10, 2012. Yak Attack Photo's #1. Yak Attack 10 day stage race. One of the hardest events I've ever done! Day 1 accommodation. Nepali farm house full of character. Jeremy in bed with a fever recovering from his spell of food poisoning prior to the race. Tough start to the event for him. The first few days we're a neutral starts getting us safely out of the towns and villages to the actual start. The warm up was welcomed as pretty much everyday started on an up hill. A New Challenge Awaits.

Carena Dean: March 2012
http://carenadean.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 15, 2012. One Hell Of A Race. We arrived back in Kathmandu yesterday afternoon on a 30min turbulent. Others took the 6-8hr bus ride back which I was grateful. To skip out on this time around. It's been quite the journey and race that I think tops out as one of the coolest things I've ever done. Nothing is quite like it really. It was raw racing the. Felt like a crazy combination. Mountain climb, mountain bike stage race, adventure race, cultural. And pasion in mnt. Look so easy. It's.

Carena Dean: Lake Lovely Water, Mtn. Alpha
http://carenadean.blogspot.com/2011/08/lake-lovely-water-mtn-alpha.html
Tuesday, August 30, 2011. Lake Lovely Water, Mtn. Alpha. After a check over of myself I knew it wasn't broken thankfully but defiantly a good sprain or roll. Good thing for first aid kits I had packed a tenser bandage. Lake lovely water is the perfect water for icing a ankle in too. We celebrated our anniversary with some wine we trekked up at one of the most beautiful camping spots I've ever been to. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Where's Jeremy and Carena?

Carena Dean: Solo 24 HOA Nationals
http://carenadean.blogspot.com/2010/07/solo-24-hoa-nationals.html
Wednesday, July 28, 2010. Solo 24 HOA Nationals. I came in to the pit and force feed some real solid food and soup. I didn’t even want to know where 2nd was, I needed to do my own thing and that was stay on top of the fueling and keep my head clear. Jeremy looked at me questioning if I was going to make it. I was looking tired and motivation was looking low! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Where's Jeremy and Carena? Lake Lovely Water, Mtn. Alpha. Bags are packed I'm ready to go. A New Challenge Awaits.

Tuesday, April 10, 2012. Yak Attack Photo's #5. Tea houses along the way. Stage 8. Jeremy and his long days. What we rode he had to hike. Long days but an experience and accomplishment all on its own. One of the many bridges we crossed. One bridge in particular I was hauling ass on I nearly clipped my handle bar on the narrow sides and scared myself in the could be reality of flying over the handle bars and landing way way way down there. I played it really safe and conservative after that. Check out the...

Sunday, February 26, 2012. My senses are filled again with the sounds of dogs ruling the streets at night, crows and pigeons alearting us of first light, smells of inscence, sewer,curries. And the constant sound of horns honking as you walk through the caoticness of the streets. Ahh Nepal, it is good to be back. Wednesday, February 22, 2012. Bags are packed I'm ready to go. Here we go. Catching the red eye to Hong Kong. And some D ewalt. Tool belt pads and I think this rig is a winner. The adventure does...
