A little blood - a little carnage, but great times this past weekend in Cortez, CO - 12 hours of Mesa Verde. Jari Kirkland took first place with a smile the whole time in the Womens Solo category. Travis and Jon Brown went to defend their title in the Men's Duo, and were just 10 minutes shy taking 2nd place. Paul Pike, John Starr, and Torrey Carroll took 5th in the Men's 3/4 man, and big dog Dave Scheefer rocked out a 5th place in the Geezer Category. Scheefdog wanted to pull out 7 laps, and hot damn did he make it happen. We had stellar support from Mark O'Neill again, including a cold foot bath for Scheefdog to relieve some foot hot spots - that's some support right there!
Lots of fun with the Brick Oven/CB Builders crew just across the way, and that crew had some epic racing as well - taking out many a category with a whole bunch of different categories racing.
I broke my bike on lap 3, and was feeling stellar - but that's racing. Glad to only have a bit of a leg wound, but it's going to make a sweet scar.
It was totally awesome having one of our sponsors, Paul Pike, on board for some racing, and I'm sure he's now hooked.
It's only May - so much more racing to be had, and this was a great way to get some miles in for all. Off to Nathrop this weekend for MSC #2 or US Cup #2 for some Short Track and XC racing on a usually defeating course for us late bloomers. But I think we have some early legs coming to form this year - looking forward to having some better results than previous years.
