Cross is a week away. Not ready, but I don't care. I'm just ready to have fun.

NEW HELMET!

2009-09-12T21:59:00.005-05:00

Got a new helmet today. Specialzied S-Works...Thanks Conrad. WAY better than my 3 year old Atmos that decided to develop a crack in the mold even though I never crashed it. Oh well. I also have some Specialized BG Pro MTB shoes on the way. I hope they get here before I leave for Vegas or at least before Cyclocross season starts.

Heading out to Vegas for Interbike on the 21st. Then coming back to do the first round of the USGP on the 26th and 27th. Oh yeah my shop is hosting the sign in party for the USGP. All the big pro's are coming as well as Vervecken(3x world 'cross champion) will be in attendance. Pics will be posted as soon as I get back.

I have a new team that I'm riding for. Check out their link. It is the HUDZ-Subaru cyclocross team out of Boulder. Should be fun. They have a good thing going and are really trying to get new people into the sport. I'm excited.

New cross fork shipped yesterday, and should hit the shop today. THAT WAS FAST!

2009-08-19T19:20:00.001-05:00

I've been trying to keep this updated, not that anyone still reads it, but whatever. We have all moved on to Facebook or Twitter, with myspace bringing up the rear.

Cross is coming, but training isn't. Since February I have been a LAZY ASS. I haven't done all that much riding, and especially training. I ride to work about 3-4 times a week, but it isn't enough. I've put on weight...not happy about that one. I had an epiphany the other day that is requiring me to get my ass in gear. I was riding with a coworker on one of the cross courses for this year and I got worked over not even trying hard. I'm going to race a full calendar, but I don't expect to be competitive until the end of the season, and I'm ok with that. I registered for the USGP races #1 and #2 for Sun Prairie. We'll see how that turns out.

I'm working in a shop again, and I like most of it. There are always parts of jobs that you don't like, and you just have to deal with. I'm planning on going back to school in the spring for another degree(marketing or accounting) not sure on which yet. I want marketing, but accounting makes more sense with a marketing minor. Either way I'll be back in school and trying to find a career path that suits me. Whether that is the bike industry or something else I'm really not sure. We'll just have to see where the path leads.

The Planet Bike Cup

The Planet Bike Cup - September 26th and 27th, 2009

New to the USGP in 2009, The Planet Bike Cup kicks off the Series in style on September 26th and 27th at one of the most popular venues of the Wisconsin Cycling Association Series: Angell Park Speedway in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin. Sun Prairie is located 15 miles from downtown Madison, Wisconsin. Cyclocross races have been held at Angell Park Speedway since 2003 and this year the venue will get the USGP treatment - the course is challenging and features terrain change, off-camber technical riding and some short sharp climbs. It's also a perfect venue for a good time - offering great spectating, yummy yummy food and beers served right off the back of a golf cart!

Please note: there will be a $3 per car parking charge in effect each day.

Weekend Schedule

Friday, September 25th:

The course will be open from 2pm-4pm for pre-riding. Please do NOT ride the course outside of these hours.

4pm: Clif Bar Kids Clinic - FREE for juniors aged 10-16. Come ride with the Clif Bar athletes and learn the basics of cross, mounts, dismounts, bike handling. A great chance to review the course before trying the races on the weekend!

6pm: Registration opens. Stay tuned for details about Number Presentation Ceremonies and location! Fun for all!

Saturday, September 26th and Sunday, September 27th:

Racing begins at 8am for amateur categories. Pro Women race at 1:45pm and the Pro Men go at 3pm.

Come on down, race and then watch your favorite Pro!
