    2013 Surf City Cyclo-X Series Race 4 – M45A

    This was the final race of the 2013 Surf City Cyclo-X series. Once again the series returned to Aptos High School and a Ben J-M designed course. He turned out a tough, technical, but extremely fun course. Watch the Masters 45+ A Men test out their legs for the first lap of their race. Cheers!…

  • Blast From The Past – NORBA Nationals Downhill at Mount Snow VT

    Blast From The Past – NORBA Nationals Downhill at Mount Snow VT

    Just found this photo of me from 1997? during the NORBA Nationals downhill race at Mount Snow Vermont.  That’s my Intense M1 and one of the first inexpensive long travel forks (6″!) from Zzyzx.  That was a tricky fun section of the course where we dropped down a fire road and then cut off right over…

    2013 Bay Area Super Prestige Series Race 4 – M45A

    One more from the 4th race of the Bay Area Super Prestige Series. This one is the old farts that ride faster than you (and me). I’m not sure what’s in the water around NorCal, but the masters racers and now the new round of junior racers are faster than most of the cycling population.…

    2013 Bay Area Super Prestige Series Race 4 – Singlespeed A

    Here’s the single-speed A category at the fourth race of the Bay Area Super Prestige Series at Candlestick Park. The course was the best yet after a mid-week shower prepped the conditions for the weekend. No dust, tacky corners, and clear weather made for a great combination. Cheers!

    2013 Bay Area Super Prestige Series Race 4 – Killer Bs

    A short clip from the start of the Men’s B race at the 4th Bay Area Super Prestige cyclocross series. The “Killer B’s” are always a crowd favorite. Although yours truly made a weak attempt at heckling. Still fun though! 😉 More info here: bayareacx.com/

    2013 Santa Rosa CX Cup Race 2 – Singlespeed A

    The second race of the Santa Rosa CX Cup series was held at a new venue, the First Baptist Church of Windsor. Thanks goes out to Pastor Lance, also a fellow cx racer, for helping provide a needed space to race. The course was a twisty mix of grass, gravel, pavement, and wood chips. The…

    2013 Surf City Cyclo-X Race 3 – Singlespeed A Video

    The Surf City crew wrangled up a new venue way up in the hills above Santa Cruz. There they found the CAL FIRE Training Facility along Empire Grade Road. The course wound its way in and around the facility on gravel roads, dirt roads, single-track, and freshly graded field. Those freshly graded sections turned into…
