re:Pirin Run Bansko 9th June 2013
Hi Wen, good one for Steve has he recovered yet? Bet he needed a few of these
after the ride.
What a ride from the Captain eh?
It was also for runners I believe, do you know their times?
Yeah Steve did well with little XC and climbing training this year. Captain is awesome and winning many medals from races all over BG and Greece.
Steves legs were a little sore today but he still went riding with a bunch of locals and newcomers trail busting in the Pirin I was at the airport again
Looks like we will not be over until the race weekend as it is Pamporovo opening this weekend then their open cup and then Boro!! See you then. Oh and if you need more ...

May use the apartment if thats ok with you n Sandra for that weekend as will benefit us being in resort ensuring we get in as many practice runs as possible.
Think its this weekend Gary arrives back in BG so you may see him at some point too.

Hi Wen, no problem for the apartment and you know sauasages and bacon are always welcome, we have finished the last of the sausages and the bacon is nearly gone.
See you soon. x
