end of season surprises

I had two nice surprises recently, both from good consistent performances last year.

Loving the oxymoron of "Elite Sport", but it's nice to get something for a solid mountain bike season.

A plaque of my own to hang on the wall! I was somewhat disappointed with my race at Nationals last year, so this was a sweet reminder that I was still consistent over a lot more races.

Some excellent motivation as I try to balance the day job with training and those early season races!
