I'm having a hard enough time getting to Wisconsin this weekend (and that's next door), so I can't even imagine the financial nightmare of getting to Germany. Krista has to pay $250 just to get her race kit from USA Cycling. Good grief!
Krista is an amazing athlete and just a really good person. I can't imagine anyone better to represent the USA. So what can we do? There is a raffle going on right now to help Krista out. For $5 you get entered into a drawing to win some really, really sweet prizes. Mtbracenews has the entire list of what you could win. Lots of good stuff being raffled off!!!
Here is the link to purchase a raffle ticket!!! Good luck!!! Personally I'm crossing my fingers that I win the Stan's No Tubes wheelset or my coach :-)
PS. I finally updated our food blog! Yum!

I just picked up a half doz.. and I'm going to have to resist buying more...hehe
Every year I am floored by USA Cycling's lack of support for their athletes. $250 for a kit? Eph that.
I picked up a few tickets as well, good cause and great prizes will always get my money!!! :) The lack of support has always been apparent, however, I have no doubt the "real" cycling community will pull together to help out!
