The race season is over w/ #6 & #7, both super fun courses with sections on parts of the Winter Park/ Frasier Trail System that I’ve never rode. More climbing and some rippin’ descents at about 37 mph. In-laws, Jim and Shelly were able to capture some spectator time on #7.
Filled out the event survey (hoping to win free registration next year) and provided my two cents- bring in a less intense Single-speed class!
Launched a new Travel Bug (TB) this season named One Gear. It’s a geocache tag-along rear cog from a old cruiser bike Bendex Rear Hub. Pretty hard to part with but I could always give it an updated mission to come on home. BikeBug my first TB is in the status “location unknown” to bad as it was launched from Alaska on a mission to return to my cache. It had made it to within 3 mile from my house on it’s way to the Buffalo Creek area, but was lost on the way. Muggle cache-robbers more than likely. Check out the link on the links page to track it’s adventure.
Missed Race #3 which looked pretty fun and missed #4 which would have been my race- as it was a DOWNHILL! Anyway, I made Race #5 which was a bunch of fun. I talked to granny a bunch, sometimes ‘cause those riders bottle necked in front were, but that’s a convenient excuse. Really, I hadn’t been on the bike for about 2 weeks and had to. She’s doing fine, hoping to prolong the next visit.
On another note, I found myself racing vs. participating again, interesting. Still coming in at the bottom of my class but not last!
