Some 3rds and a couple of 4ths

The team was on the bikes this weekend, some longer than others… For those of use who think riding our bikes for an hour is painful, we have nothing compared to our Mountain bike brothers and sisters.. 

The Mountain bike folks raced 18 hours, yes… 18 hours…  Amy and Frank road their legs off and both finished on the podium with 3rd place finishes.  Paula had  little night vision problem and need to take a short break,  but amazingly still ended up just off the podium with a 4th place finish. 

Pam and Sharon were at the State Senior Time Trial event, along with the rest of the team “working” the event since the team promotes this race.  Pam and Sharon both PRd the course.  Pam finished the 40km in 1:05:04 and placed 4th in the women’s CAT 4.  Sharon finished with a 1:06:14 and took 3rd in the Women’s 40+.

Mark Pye is the officially the Team Engineer, for all the great work he did on making the course safe.  Julia can really WHIP folks to the starting line, even if it means yelling at her own teammate to get to the start line.  Ted, Hugh, Gregg, Steve, H.,  Brad, T.,  packedt the cars in the parking area like sardines in a can.  Other were keeping folks safe at the turn around, helping with registration, holding at the start.  It was really a great TEAM effort.

Of course we could not have held the race without the great support of our sponsors.

Last but not least… a shout out to Dave Luscan, I’ve checked as far back as 2006; and I’ll keep checking but I cannot find a time faster than what he laid down on Sunday… a blistering   00:51:29.263   Not sure what the current State / course record is but that is pretty dang fast in my book…
