#payitforward, feels good.

The bike rodeo we did a couple of months ago was still on the minds of the scout troop enough that they sent me a thank you photo and a nice arrangement of signatures from everyone.

I've since run into one of the den mothers this week while out and about and she enthusiastically updated me that the boys are still amazed we came out and did the event for them. To us, the team, it's seems natural to Pay It Forward and I hope they keep that image with them through their lives and do the same for others some day.

Here's a recap of that rad day....more!

2012 Race Avenue crit is here already!?

Hello, is there anybody out there, just nod if you can hear me....


Well not really but it's been made aware to me that this site has become dusty over the past 2 weeks. Truth be known that we're out riding and getting our race legs back.

This Sunday is the Race Avenue crit. We have Will, Kirk, and Craig heading out to have a go at it on Father's Day. Last year's course proved to be speedy with an average pace of 24mph for the 4/5s. A 3 block long by one block wide, 4 corner course with a false flat uphill finish in front of F&M College, will test the riders ability to make sound decisions while in oxygen debt. 


From what I remember from last year's stint, tire pressure was key if you wanted to keep your speed in the corners. It seemed like I was constantly jumping out of every corner, chasing to hold that wheel in front of me. 


My goal for this Sunday is to apply a large effort of patience and I hope the goal for the rest of the field is to hold their line and no half wheeling. Finger crossed and hopefully we'll have some photos to post here next Monday.
