Camp Arrowhead XC/SoGnar

While I was back home in New York, was lucky enough to hit up the Park Ave Camp Arrowhead XC.  Weeknight cross-country racing at the YMCA in support of a great cause.  I raced it 2x last year, won the first race and DNF the 2nd with a busted front derailleur.  It was nice to [...]

Hardcore 24-First Lap Re-cap

I figured since I have it, I might as well share it.  Here’s my power data from the 1st lap at the Hardcore 24 this past weekend.  I ended up winning the lap and the $100 prime in a 2 man sprint against Park Ave’s Rob Pilato.  It was an epic battle, probably one of [...]

GROC Fat Tire Fest

GROC Fat Tire Fest

  This past weekend was the GROC Fat Tire Festival.  Held at Dryer Rd Park in Victor, NY.  Originally started as a time trial race on the trails, my first race there was abysmal.  But last season I persevered and took home the XC win.  Headed back to the race this year to have some [...]

‘Back’ in Action

‘Back’ in Action

  Things have been a bit busy here these past few weeks.  Thought that maybe I’d get a few pictures up and a brief report.  Some are already aware, but a few weeks ago strained my back a bit at the Farmall #2 Spring race.  Not sure what exactly caused it, but damn if it [...]

Farmall Finale

Farmall Finale

Last night was the grand finale of the RV&E Farmall Series. Things looked to be a little hairy on the weather radar as it was downpouring here in Waterloo/Seneca Falls area, but apparently never or barely rained on the race course. I had laced up a Bontrager ACX to my spare rear wheel just in [...]

Speaking of Performance…

Speaking of Performance…

Last Night was Farmall Hill Challenge #2. I’d missed the first week as I was traveling. I had some heavy motivation to get out there and shred the trails. I’ve not raced in a bit and I’m in full on prep mode for the Shenandoah 100. Here in Seneca Falls, we’ve had massive thunderstorms early [...]

Win Some, Break Some

WTF, I just typed this all out on my iphone and saved it, and now it can’t be found. These is going to be a bit briefer…… Since I dropped out of the Hardcore 24 last weekend, I was still fairly fresh and decided to hit up the GROC Fest XC at Dryer Rd. Ripping [...]

Farmall #2/MPH

This past Tuesday, Farmall #2 went off without a hitch. I felt soo much better than I did over the weekend. Race as always is brutal, conditions though were perfect overall. I managed to tick just shy of 3 minutes time off last week’s ride for a 1:05:01. I’m pretty happy with that, and I [...]
