Well now that 2011 is over it's time to recap our race season in the Minnesota Mountain Bike Race Series. Our first race of the season was a very wet affair.
Zach and I had great race, single speeding was definitely the way to go in the sloppy conditions.
It's hard to see in this picture but it was pouring buckets!
This picture shows how deep the water was getting on the course.
When I came across the finish line Zach was there waiting for me and I didn't recognize him at first because he had changed colors.
My second race of the season was at Afton Alps ski area.
I have done this race for four years now and this was one my best.
Next up was the race at Mt. Kato, a tough course with a lot of climbing.
Always fun to show off for the camera.
Next up was Buck Hill. A very hot race.
Then after that was the Dirt Spanker race. It was the hottest (hardest) race we have ever done!
Next is one of my favorite races the Great Hawk Chase in Duluth.
My last race of the season was at Maplelag resort.
What a beautiful spot to ride.
These two pictures were taken at the same time, from different perspectives. It looks like I'm about ride into the lake! Overall it was a great season. It was my best in the last three years racing as a cat 2. I took first place in the series in the 50+ category. Once again we were riding our Vassago's throughout the season, they ROCK!
