The three stooges, Randy, Hoppe and myself made it down to Manions part doux and had a great time..
The course was tough, with a good amount of climbing involved. Just the way we like it!
Hippy took 9th in the 35+ 4s.. Not bad for not being on the bike for 2 weeks.. But more importantly JP Brocket got a picture of him in all his glory, which is now my screen saver... I asked him what happened, and told me he was just resting...
Hoppe Killed the Masters 40+! Which is extra impressive after I think he walked the lemans start... When I saw him go by on the fist lap, I think he was dead last... Pulled it together to win!
Good job dude, I'm going to catch you one of these days!!!
I did was seems to be some cherry picken and got my first cross win... Took 1st in singlespeed....
The course was well planned out I thought, in a valley which was cool... Had one really good climb in it which made everyone racing heart rate spike every lap... Here is a good pick of the backside of the course...
Although it looks downhill, its a bit deceiving.. You even had to work to go downhill on this course!! MANION II RESULTS
Here is a cool video JP Brocket put together... I see the hippy in there in the 4's... also myself in a couple in the singlespeed race... We went before the 4's...
Big thank you to all of those that made this race happen.. And a huge good luck to everyone racing Jingle Cross this weekend... Wish I was coming with you a-holes!!
Great day for Racing!! I can't say enough about the courses they put together out there. I am quite fond of them.. Always have a bit of everything...
Got the gear ready and headed down there with Hoppe.. Brad Bob, Spenser, Derek and JP were all in attendance...
Its been a little since I raced last and felt it a bit... Thought everyone did pretty well, JP has been doing a ton of racing lately... Hoppe did have to DNF because he uses crap pedals... Guess you can't teach an old dog new tricks...
We even had the Bob's (Fitz & Baily) came out and show their support.... By support I mean drink Blue Moons!!! Thanks for coming out fellas....
I'm going to post my race report on my blog, so you wont be forced to read it....JDoug's OCD.
Let me know if you want any links to other race reports....
More info for your reading/viewing pleasure! Also, I saw a ton of video cam's out there.. I will post them as I find them..
