Heading to FL

Friday, August 29th, 2008

Namrita is racing in the 8 Hours of Labor down there. We are staying with some friends in Gainesville and considering they are all students and this weekend is the first UF football game, it’s going to be an interesting weekend. I may have to wear my Huskers jersey all weekend to remind [...]

Help Wanted

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

We are actively seeking sponsorship for the remainder of the year and for 09 and we are looking outside of the bike industry. That’s not say we do not need support from the bike world, just that we know they don’t have much to offer financially. Here’s were you, the fine blogisphere readers, [...]

Mulberry Gap & the Drama Queen

24 Hour Nats Report

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008

I have never been so calm before a 24 hour race. It almost worried me that I was not worried, but that passed. I knew what I needed to do, I knew I did all the right prep and all I had to do was ride my race and the rest would sort [...]
