Last night was the ACA Year end awards party. It was held at Great Divide Brewery in Denver. We pictured a brewery type restaurant/bar with seating and food-right?? NO, it was literally a brewery where they make the beer. We walked in and it was like a huge garage, with the distilleries and it smelled bad-like a beer brewery would...Interesting, but we still had a good time. There were lots of people and free beer. The winners of each category were announced in a rather fast manner. Nobody was really paying attention to anything the announcers were saying. Did I mention that Doug was one of the announcers??? Needless to say, we picked up our awards, took some photo's, said hi to lots of our friends and headed off to dinner with some teammates. It was a fun evening all in all. However, I'm still trying to figure out why anyone would actually try to achieve any of these awards, they don't seem to mean much! Doug's team won the BAT or Best All Around Team and my ladies won the BAT for SW 1-2's. I took home the honor of Best All Around Rider for 2008 in the SW 1-2. Rachel was 2nd in the Best All Around CX Rider for the 35+ ladies! We had a good year over all, hopefully we can have another good one in 2009.
