Tri Month

Well theTwin Lakes Tri has pasted. A few more weeks an we will be at the Dog Days Tri and the Hickory Grove Tri. Hoping to put down some faster swim and run times. The bike has been going well but there is always room for improvement.

Twin Lake Triathlon

Well today was the 2nd annual Twin Lakes Triathlon. What a great event it was. Perfect air temp in the am with a light breeze and warm bath tub water.
28th place overall. Awesome bike, average run and swim.
Looking forward to next year.

Next Stop Spring!

Well it's hard to believe Spring is not far away. But it's true! A couple more gravel rides and races and it's time to give the road racing a shot this season. It'll be good training for the triathlons.
Besides all that, we are just waiting out the weather and trying to make the best out of it.

Snow Bike #2 Feb. 16th

Well it's getting close! Snow Bike #2 is only days away and we have riders from Iowa Fall and Cedar Falls coming over to challenge the strong riders from the Des Moines and Omaha area.

This race is shaping up to be a travel gravel route due to ice on the trails. We will change up the course for this event and add a few hills. I will ride the new route Sunday.

So come on out and do some winter riding and have some fun at Amigos after the race.

We will have more prizes from Fat Tire Ale, Amigos, Brown's Shoe Fit Co. and more.

See ya there

Super Race Day

Well things went great! The cyclist were in rare form today for sure. There were some odd things going on today for sure! The photos tell all.

We had a great time. Looking forward to seeing everyone in Feb. on the 16th.

Dubuque Tripple D Race

Well we went and gave it our best shot. The conditions were extreme! And the course was not much better. But that's the Idea. Due to a frozen our broken free hub I headed back after 8 miles threw the snow that was 6-8 inches deep in some places and very rutted. I did complete 16 miles total in 2:25 along with Brian Benson who was also having some problems.
Four bad ass cyclist did complete the event in a liitle more than 8 hrs. There were 56 paid cyclist ,35 started and 4 finished. We had a good time overal.
Fix the bike for this weekend and go again!
So this coming weekend we will be hosting our own winter race and the weather looks to be great!

Race Course

Sunday was cold with a lite wind. I began the course in western Webster County riding the Lizard Creek Valley east towards Fort Dodge. Some nice little hills, some flats and a overall great ride. Approximate distance was around 22 miles minus the Loomis loop.
Hope for some decent weather!
