Happy July 4th everyone! The 4th day in July is less of a holiday in Switzerland . . . although we did get invited to an "American" party held by some Swiss people. Based on my reading of the invitation (again the language barrier is substantial!), everyone is supposed to drive their car and show up fashionably late (seriously . . . I guess that is the Swiss stereotype of Americans). I think I'm going to go for a long bike ride and probably pass on the party.
In news more relevant to adventure racing, we've got the race report from the 2008 Tidewater Traverse up on the Untamed Adventure team page. There's a couple photos in there etc. It's something to read while you're waiting for your BBQ grill to heat up . . . enjoy the holiday everyone!
