Another race, another win....



Another stop on the Michigan Cup Endurance race Series...Cannonsburgh on June 21st.

Back to our old winning ways again! When we competed in this race last year it was hot, muggy and dry and I didn't care too much for the climbing we had to do up the ski hills. Aren't you suppose to go down ski hills anyways?


Oh well, in any rate this year it was hot, not so muggy and kinda wet with all the rain we got earlier in the day. It wasn't much rain, which I was thankful for, but just enough to keep the dust down and the trail tacky. The sun eventually came out and it got real hot especially on the ski hill climbs were it's all out in the open with no shade to cool you down.

All in all it was a decent race. I had some trouble with leg cramps that affected my last two laps. These were probably the worse leg cramps I've ever felt before in my life, honestly. It truly affected me even a week after the race. Not too sure what the specific cause was but I know my diet and riding position didn't change at all. It sucked big time. But I managed to pull in the last lap of the day.


In the end we won by over 2 laps. It was pretty decisive from the very start. We all put in hard fast laps. We're still currently in first place overall for the series title again. We just need to keep driving hard. Still a long season ahead of us.

Nate and Meagen brought there new son out to join in on the fun. What a cutey!
