Email from Editor

I just got this email a few days ago from the editor of Adventure Sports Weekly. Her name is Wina and she was up at the Jeep KOM reporting on the race. She sent me this email and I thought it was super cool so I figured I'd post it...

Hi Tara,

I'm the red haired Utah old lady journalist from the JKOM, didn't talk much to you there and didn't see the spelling of your last name so didn't even realize it was you! Wanted to gi'yaprops for coming back after that naaasty crash, but more importantly, as soon as I saw "Llanes," just had to email you what an impression you made on me (and my bank acct) some years ago at the Deer Valley NORBA race, I interviewed you, you offered to let me try out your bike, my first time on full suspension, I went nuts, right away bought a great bike with everything; have to thank ya for that! I'll never have the guts (or talent) you do, but I can ride down hills on that bike like I always dreamed of riding! Yee-haw! But the big ones you showed by coming back after Saturday's Canyons crash was awesome. I hope you aren't too sore today; and I'm saying a little prayer that you qualify over in China. Good, good, good luck!

Thanks Wina and it's great to know that you're out there charging the mountain on your bike!
Cheers,
Tara
