Cross Kick Off Camp Weekend!

Three Days of Cross Riding with Three different Groups!

Gunnar came down and car pooled with Monkey and to the  C3 cross training camp:

My left side is my best for pictures!

Moe's Bike shop= No Uniform Violation.

Andre was a rocket all day at camp. He's looking good for this season
Sunday

was the JBV /Fulcrum Camp With JEREMY POWERS:

As always working the camp is a lot of fun, and lot of work. I am honored for the opportunity to share what has been taught to me with folks at the camp. It was a good day... Mayhew and Tille are very good coaches, and I always learn something from them at camp.

Two years ago, during our corning, body position and off camber section, very serendipitously I started chasing J-Pow around our little course. He left the corner open and I dove in. He slammed the door shut on me, much the pleasure of the camp. ( a big time pro, picking on a mid pack masters guy-that's cool)

Since then each year during this part of camp it a tradition that we chase each other around the off camber section, and J-Pow shuts the door on me. He's pretty good at cross if you get a chance to see him race, you should. This 30 minute section of camp ends up being one of the highlights of my season each year.

Tille, Mayhew and J Pow lay out the plan for the day

I had the pleasure of working Rusty again this year. Great Guy.

the campers!

Monday:
DCCoD UNITE.

First Gathering of the DCCoD 2011- Why is CZ looking at my wife's boobs?

Rob Brown was like butter through the barriers

Chappy is gonna do some cross this year.
 good day we had a Labor Day Grass Track Extravaganza- Kelly J. Cline rules. Broke into small groups had some fun. When I drove by the park on Friday, I was stoked they were cutting the grass, spent an hour riding today, and 2 trying to get all the grass off the bikes....  Miss and Out races are my favorite. I chased from the back of a group the entire race, and came up short as Chappy beat me in a sprint... We followed it up with some barrier practice... A good day for all....

Damn, I miss this time of the year. You take a break for a few short months and don't recognize half the faces anymore.
Btw, is that Ethan sitting in the back row there?
