This past weekend had been circled on my calendar for quite some time. One year to be exact! Down at Mt. Bachelor in Bend...they held the 5th Annual Race & Ace--a team event that is considered the best in all of North America. This year there were 20 four-person teams....and 7 two-person teams. It was the second year I competed--and I use that word loosely! I teammed up with KVAL Sports Director, and good friend, Tom Ward. We finished 7th out of 7 teams....yikes!! Tom and I were on snowboards....and frankly, that killed any chance we may have had. Let me put it to you mildly....Tom and I go snowboarding once a year. So, when you have to go down a fairly steep slope....it can get rather interesting--AND IT DID! It's a slalom course, with quick turns. I took out the 3rd gate on the way down. We fared better on the golf aspect.....shot a 78 in best-ball format. But I digress.

Let me send out a sincere plug to Doug Fish of Fish Marketing in Lake Oswego. He's the Race Director, who again, put on a fantastic event. Not to be outdone....his right-hand man, Nate Parr. These two put their blood, sweat, and tears into making this event a major success. If your interested in checking it out, or participating in it next year.....visit www.raceandace.com

There's no shortage of celebs on hand either.....here's a shot of myself and former NFL QB Drew Bledsoe.
