UA Crit Volunteers

Hi clubbers,

I just wanted to post the link to the doodle sign up that Shane put together for the UA Crit. If you can volunteer please do, and please fill in your name and select at time ont he doodle! Free lunch is provided. If you want to race, you still can, no problem. As of now, it looks like we are thinnest from 2pm-6pm. So if we could get some people to donate some time there, that would be fantastic. Thanks again for contributing to the club community and helping to make the crit a fun event.

ASU Crit - February 22, 2009

So the UA Cycling Team continues to dominate the "A" catagories in the SWCCC.  We occupied the top-6 spots in the Men's A race and the top-4 spots in the Women's A race.  You can look at the results here to get an idea of the competition we were up against in those categories.

Niko Skievaski (ASU) won the Men's B event and Terrin Lane (ASU) won the Women's B event. Cedric Bosch was the first UA racer in the Men's B event in third.  Kate Van Roeckel and Kim Truitt both started the Women's B race for the UA but were forced to abandom due to an early crash.  

Altogether, we had 18 racers representing the UA.  Everybody raced in the Collegiate races and most racers doubled-up for their category races as well.

What a great start to the race season.  Next up we've got the Hillsboro Omnium, the SWCCC Road Race Championships.  UA Cycling is out to defend our SWCCC title!

Colossal Cave Stage Race

Hi Racers,

I just wanted to toss up the link to the flyer for the Colossal Cave Stage Race, March 28 & 29. The link to the flyer is: http://www.presteza.com/CCRR.html . Hope to see some of y'all out there. There is not a collegiate race category for this event, but it still promises to be a great time!

Peace,
