I’m a bit behind in my blogging this week, but for a good reason – I’m in Arizona!!
That’s the Cactus pool in Scottsdale where I’ve been swimming with the SunDevil Masters team. Outdoor swimming is always a treat, even when it’s dark outside!
This week I’m staying north of Scottsdale with my friend Drew. We’re making the most of our close escape of the Atlanta snow by enjoying the Arizona sunshine to the fullest – on two wheels!
Yesterday we rode out past the Ironman Arizona bike course turn-around and enjoyed some GORGEOUS views and fun climbs and descents.
And I get to do all this riding on my BRAND NEW BIKE!
The Illicito is riding like a dream! I couldn’t be happier with the bike, complete with SRAM Red components and a Quarq power meter. My Reynolds wheels got caught up in the ATL snow shipping halt, but that just means the bike will get even better!! Major thank you to ATL bike guru Allen Heaton for completing the AMAZING build and thanks to Brent at all3sports for helping me out with some of the final pieces!
Many more warm, sunny, dry rides to come!

So jealous you got to escape the winter weather here in Atlanta! I like the beauty of the snow but I’m ready to be free to roam outside.
Yay, Haley! Enjoy your train-cation!
Hope you enjoyed your time in Arizona!
Being able to help get your new 2014 QR race bike done and dialed into your proper bike fit was my pleasure. I’m happy your training block in AZ has gone so well!
