The leaves are starting to change their color. It's the sign that winter is on its way. With that comes our much anticipated cyclo cross series. I have been back at the weights and have been running a few miles at a time. It's been a welcomed change to my cycling season.
The Durango Wheel Club Championships are this week. The MTB TT was Tuesday. It's during weight lifting-running week so I have been helping as a course marshall and will help get gift donations in town for the winners. It's nice to be a spectator sometimes.
Last night was our last short track. They have been a blast. Once you get in the rythm of that kind of discomfort and breathing it's not so bad. It's been great for improving my starts and sprints .Matt Shriver..who was Lances point man at Leadville showed up as well as Joey Thompson and other extremely fast guys. Rotom, who is a Phenom at Fort Lewis, took the win. This kid is incredible and rides for Jamis bikes. My race was good for a training race, I felt strong and made sure I was a head of some of the college guys at the finish.
The Single Speed world Championships will be held in Durango this coming week and weekend.
There is a buzz in the air as we expect thousands to show up to race and watch. I rode part of the course...I have always thought single speeders were a special group...after riding the way so technical course I KNOW they are! It's wild.
I am hoping to race in Gallup NM on the 26th then the Road Apple Rally on Oct 3rd. After that it;s all cross baby.
