KENDA CUP WEST SERIES - SANTA YNEZ VALLEY CLASSIC

Justin, Landon, Bryan, and I made the short haul to the Solvang/ Los Olivos area this past weekend to race the Santa Ynez Valley Classic.  Bryan thought about racing the Cat 2 or 3 race, but the weather turned bad and he decided to call it off.  I hadn't been to the area before, but was very impressed.  Beautiful landcsape with lusch foilage and nice rolling hills!  The most unfortunate thing was that the course serves as a grazing ground for cattle (the real Californian happy cow) part of the year.  The hoof potholes made for an extremely bumpy course on a hardtail.

KENDA CUP WEST SERIES - FONTANA CITY NATIONAL PRO XCT

The third installment of the Kenda Cup West Series took place this past weekend in Fontana, CA.  I was the only member of the team to race in the XC event, since the others had just returned from a week of surfing and relaxing on the beach in Nicaragua.  The rest of us had to maintain life as we knew it, working and playing a little on the side.  Here are the results for Cat 1 and Super D.

12 Hours of Temecula - Persepectives

The race season is now upon us.  People are checking their calendars and see what races they can fit into their busy lives.  This past weekend I decided to travel with the team down to the 12 Hours of Temecula which runs out of the Vail Lake Resort.  The Libby Brothers and Andrew/Ben would be making a set of 2-man teams.  Since most of the other guys did the 8 Hours of Adrenaline solo last September, I decided I would make a solo effort for this race.

24 Hours of Moab: Lessons in Humility

Have you ever wondered what your special talent is? At the most inauspicious times we seem to come across those that are just more naturally gifted in certain areas than we are. Sometimes I wonder if I have what it would take to be a great cyclist. Of course you never really know until you put in the time and then test yourself.

8 Hours of Adrenaline

This past weekend the team traveled, with the 24 Hours of Adrenaline crew, up to Hurkey Creek for this year's second installment of their 24 Hour mt. bike race.

Announcement: 8 Hours of Adrenaline

We will be racing the 24 Hour of Adrenaline this weekend up in Hurkey Creek, Ca. We have decided to split up the team and all race the 8 hour solo event. This will allow us an early escape for our migration North for our annual return to "Mecca" (Whistler, B.C.) More to follow....
