It's the time of Fall where midterms, bike racing, class projects, and pig flu, have finally come to pass (for me anyway). Those are my excuses for not keeping this website updated as often as it should. Especially, since the club has some exciting news! Here's the summary:
- UA Cycling takes home the 2009 MTB SWCCC Conference Title. Our club had it's largest turnout at a mountain bike race since (ever possibly). With 16 racers, we took 3 category wins, and qualified our team to race at Collegiate Mountain Bike Nationals in Truckee, CA.
- Chloe Forsman wins D1 cross-country Collegiate Mountain Bike Nationals & Kevin Clegg rides to a 10th place in the men's D1 race with a broken finger! In her last collegiate mountain bike nationals, Chloe unseated the reigning XC champion, Carla Swart, to add to her XC titles from 2006 & 2007. Matthew Jones and Michael Sencenbaugh rounded out the UA nationals team.
- Clif Bar sponsors UA Cycling. This means that UA Cycling members will have access to all the wonderful, nutritious, organic goodies that Clif Bar makes.
- Specialized sponsors UA Cycling. That's right, UA Cycling now has a bike sponsor.
- Planning begins for the 2010 UA Criterium. The race will be the 4th running of the UA Criterium. The race course is one of the best in Arizona and takes place in the heart of central Tucson on the U of A campus. The club will begin a search for event sponsors soon.
