Pando and Workday

Well Rich and Al did Pando a few weeks ago. Rich's eleventh year doing it.
Here is what Rich had to say:
AL was 13th and Rich was 12th, 19 total in are age group, 30-49.4.2 mile laps, we both did 14 laps each....yeah I know, bunch ofpanisies....really great time though.

There is also a workday on the 11th. So again-too many frickin options.

Are you a DORC?

The DORC race is 9/11 in Naperville. We could have a good showing for this one. Its always good to support the local race. Whos in?

Kewaunee XC Adventure 9/11

This is the next WORS race. Its 3 1/2 hours or so I here there is over ten miles of sweet singletrack there. Between the venue and Riverview Park.

Alterra Coffee Classic and The Psycho Century

This was a great course. The singletrack was tons of fun. It took me an hour and a half to ge there. It was super close. I believe its open for riding pretty much except if its snowing which then it would be a ski area. But if you get a chance check it out.
A few particpated in the century. Great training for Chequamegon. I kind of wish I would've gotten in on some of that. Rick tore his shoulder up after the work day on Saturday. Heres to a speedy recovery.

Here is the Palos picnic.

PAMBA had a good turnout.

PAMBA Farmdale Frenzy

Burak placed 2nd in the sport XC. Anne did too.(Well except in the Womens category) Congratulations. Many others participated also. Rick, Roger, Tony, all had fun. The downhill and the Mountain Cross was on Sunday. I was not on hand to see it. But I think Matt did pretty well. There aren't any results up on the PAMBA site-lets just say Matt, Stan, Burak and probably others had fun doing the freeride portion of the weekend.

Alterra Coffee Classic

This race is a close one- you get free coffee, and you can be home in time for the Simpsons. There are new sections of singletrack here and group rides every Wednesday. Its just outside of Milwaukee and if your not busy everyone should try to check it out. check out www.wors.org for more info.

So many options...

Well this weekend had nothing going on-(due to no 12 hours of Palos) and next weekend has a WORS race the (Calumet Sun Run) in Hilbert , WI with dual slalom on Saturday and XC on Sunday. Next Weekend its PAMBA.

Imagination Glen Group Shot

24/9 crew

Imagination Glen !

The crew went to the Glen and then to the beach. Here are the pictures to prove it.

24/9 report

What can I say???? No Ken Benny or Benny Kenny or whatever his name was. Team reckless was there we had some fun, we suffered, we laughed, uh no crying this time sorry folks. (thanks to Tim going out for the last lap) We ended up 6th in the four man sport. The competition was a bit stiffer this year I had one crappy night lap and got stung by a hornet which I went to the doc and I'm okay but my arm swelled up pretty good on Monday. Only one flat which Tim changed and probably still had a faster lap than I pulled. But no worries it was still fun I think we'll be back next year. Rick went solo for 12 hours. I think he did pretty well. Except for the broken S.A.S.S. (Aren't you a little old to be riding a bike?) ha ha. Thanks to Marco, Beth and Cecily for hanging out with us. Oso and his buddy came too. Burak, Ed, Tim we'll conquer next time. Hey you know what-maybe we'll train for this thing next year. Yeah right, maybe we'll go for the 5 person open and add a ringer??? Roger?? Matt???? someone? anyone? Yeah you got to be crazy to go for 24 hours. Well so long.
Oh by the way-Who went to DORC and where is our race report?
Roger got 8th and Anne got 3rd at D.O.R.C. Thanks, and great job you guys..
