Mt Tabor

Tessa curl beat Darien Curl in the tricycle race early in the morning and set the good juju in motion. Keep an eye on that one! Chauncey gave it a go in the SS race but came up short when he had some mechanical issues. Apparently the selected gear was too big for the engine on that day. Next it was Norrene’s try in the women’s race. I think we are going to be looking for a new mechanic because Norrene had the same problem as Chauncey…. A few more hard rides like that will get them both up to speed soon enough.

There was a very good field in the pro 1-2 race this time. In attendance was overall favored Shannon Skeret, which is amazing because he just received his 10 anniversary card from AARP! Also in attendance was Doug O., Evan Elken, and The Chad + the rest of Oregon’s finest.

The race started with ANT going blocks and staying away for the first 6 or so laps. Doug ended up chasing him down and going it alone for a lap or two as well. Then it all came together for a bit and Danger
tried his hand, getting away in a small group for a few laps. With about 10 to go the stink hit the fan and Doug, Chad, Evan, Shannon, and ANT all having a go at it. In the end it was Shannon, Luke Pennington, and Kirk getting away with about 5 to go. Shannon should have had some Endurolytes from Hammer because he was suffering from the hammie cramps. With 3 to go Luke dropped off the pace some which left Kirk at the front by him self. All the heavy hitters tried and failed to bring him back. Even got away to try to bridge but with 1 to go Kirk still had a 30+ second gap.

Here are the results of the day.

Oh, and this guy was there with his funny helmet cam.

All in all, it was a good day. We sold some coffee, won some bike races, and thanks to the Tracy’s all had full bellies.


Up next Wednesday Tabor and Elk Horn
