April racing!

April was full of blooming flowers, rain storms, and many races on concrete and dirt. We are super grateful for Bob's taking over the Spring road races, and for the UpCycle, Wild Rockies, and Knobby Tire for continuing to host dirt races, including bringing back the Wednesday night short track races and the Knobby Tires series. See below for the details of all the races!

Barking Spider Dash 4/8/2017

The first MTB race of the season was blustery and [a little] windy. We had a great time, an we happy to earn a few spots on the podium to boot! Thanks to Wild Rockies for keeping this race on the calendar - it is ALWAYS tough!
