Sycamore Ride 06/26/10

The crew rolled out for a nice saturday ride at sycamore.

Mikes tire came off the bead while climbing some singletrack.



There was a rattlesnake on the side of the trail.


Right after we got done riding out of sycamore, a fire sprang up out of nowhere





Looking forward to the San Deguito race on july 3rd and we hope we see you all out there!

Big Bear Shootout 06/20/10

It was quite a busy weekend up at Big Bear for sure!! We rode around 20 miles on saturday, and then race day, did about the same.



Zach ran over a nail and luckily it didn't puncture his tire and it only went through a knob!

As some of you may know, we were holding down the fort for Team Duke and had quite a setup.
Two easy ups and pretty much a front and center location made us the hit of the event.



And as for the race, we did great. Zach T. placed 2nd in Cat3 19-29, while I placed 4th in Cat3 30-34. Brian busted his cog around 11 miles into the race( Cat2 Single speed), so he had to use his bike as a scooter, but still came in under 2 hrs!!

And Damian made sure no one got sun burnt or missed the opportunity for a temporary tattoo by running the show while we were racing (thanks again!!)

So, all in all, was a great experience and a great showing for the team!!
