News and Race Reports

UNH P/1/2/3 Crit.

05/10/12One of these things just doesn't belong. Timely race reports are not my thing. In some ways I think it's better that I don't immediately recall the race in writing because it would probably read something like: "OMG AND THEN I ATTACKED AND IT WAS THE BEST THING EVAR BLAHHHHH!!!!" Though, to be honest, this is one race report that will most likely end up sounding like that regardless of how much time I give myself to calm down.

I felt like this was my first race ever. I was so excited, I couldn't sleep the night before. We showed up in usual GLV fashion: Late. Well, when I say we, I mean everyone else. I couldn't wait to get going so I showed up 2 hours...

12 Hours of Great Glen

08/16/11This is a long report, but if you think of it as word count per hour of racing, its actually somewhat concise? Maybe?

So rarely has an event that could be called a "comedy of errors" ended so well.

I teamed up with Ian Schon from B2C2 as team "B2GLVC2™" for the men's 12 hour pair event at 24 Hours of Great Glen. There were 10 other...

Wayne Elliot Memorial Race - 2/3 Report

We had 7 laps, I think, which was fine because of only ~250ft. of climbing per lap. The pack got very big from day-of reg, so we toed the line with about 80 guys, maybe more. From the gun, it was very unstable, lots of braking, lots of bad bike handling and a crash on some of the worst roads we saw all day. All our guys managed to pick their way around that early crash and stay with the group. On the next lap we were neutral through the crash zone and the guys involved...

Sterling Classic Road Race

05/07/11

NON WORDY VERSION -
Full-field neutralization, then full-field sketchiness on last lap. Mike got 9th, I got ~12th, Mike has special powers that allow him to appear from nowhere to beat me by a small margin.

WORDY VERSION - 
Well that went... not horribly?

Tour of the Battenkill

04/12/11

Better late than never. Here it goes.

Race goes off and I touch wheels with some dude and barely avoid taking us both out. Then I sit in behind the field for the easy flat riding up to the first dirt section, then start to move up. Between the first and second dirt sections, no one wanted to work and I found myself unwillingly on the front swapping...
