Last weekend the Wisconsin Off-Road Series was back for round 2 to be held in the beautiful north woods of Wisconsin.
This past weekend was the Matt Wittig Memorial Race held in Muskego Wisconsin. The race remembers Matt for what he loved, bike racing. With Matt’s membership on the UW Cycling club combined with many of the KS Energy Services/TW riders riding for UW, a special bond exists which those riders wanted to express.
LA CROSSE — Just seconds stood between Alex Martin and the overall omnium victory after a weekend of intense racing. His second-place finish followed racing, which included a Saturday morning road race, evening hill-climb time trial, and a criterium in downtown La Crosse Sunday.
This weekend at the Joe Martin stage race around Fayetteville, Arkansas, I came across many new race situations, and some familiar situations but in new contexts. Many scenarios are ubiquitous in cycling like chaotic feed zones with bottles skidding across the pavement or when you’re on the front with your team drilling the pace to string out the field.
The 2012 WORS Mountain Biking season kicks off each year with the Iola Bump and Jump. This year however, it was welcomed with a little Cyclocross fashion.
The first stage of the 4 day event was a nearly 3 mile time trial up the side of Devil’s Den State Park, just south of Fayetteville Arkansas, gaining around 700 vertical ft, with an average gradient of 6.8%. With the mercury pegging the temperature at around 80 degrees in shade, and the sun and moderate humidity making it feel warmer.
On a windy April morning with rain threatening to fall, the first race of the WCA calendar had a sizable group of KS/TW riders ready to race. The course is a very fast, somewhat flat 3 corner crit which twists its way through a commercial research park west of downtown Madison. Winds were gusting at 30 mph and holding steady at 20 mph, bring heavy rain later in the day.
Enzo’s Cycling products are back to support KS Energy Services/Team Wisconsin for another year. The riders are especially happy about this because the Enzo’s ButtonHole Cream was saving our butts all last year. And their Embrocation was doing wonders for our legs when the cold Midwest winter came to chill our CX spirits.
