2011 Hoo Ha

Another great race for the team.  We had 10 people racing and we had 4 podium finishes.  Thanks to everyone who came out, it was a lot of fun. Jim took advantage of the team room and we rode the course on saturday. It was great seeing Nolan pull up with four guys and four bikes inside his yukon. Mason said it looked like a clown van with all of them piling out. Then Tom & Sonya pulled in next to Nolan. Lisa and jennie followed with Matt rounding out the team. Jennie's pedals were still on her other bike, fotunately Nolan rides the same ones and raced in the morning, so a little teamwork kept Jennie from having to race on platform pedals. Matt spent the day trying to take people out while on course and was the talk of the town after the races. Damon could barely walk, much less step up on the podium after the rocks failed to properly cushion his fall. Jeff was unstoppable again and showed off his climbing/descending skills to eveyone behind him. Jim took the overall in his age group. Nolan finished 4th in his class, Sonya took a 3rd along with some nice cuts & scrapes on the ankles. Tom rocked out a solid couple of laps and looked like he wanted to go out for a thrd. I think Kylan also scored a top 5 in his class. A great showing by the team. We all took advantage of a tent that was not being used and it made a huge difference being out of the sun all day. People were coming by, hanging out and sharing in deep fried oreos...


 


Starting the day off with Damon & Nolan.

Jim just stoked to be representing DP.  Maybe it was the Qdoba burrito from the night before.


No one saw this view of Jeff all day.
