Thrilla up tha Hilla from the Milla!




Last night I did my first ever bike race here in Bend, OR and it was a hoot! Webcyclery puts the race on and is part of the Thrilla Cyclocross Series. My main objective was to finish in decent time and not to crash to hard!! The first I obtained, the second goal I failed miserably with a huge crash on the first lap, that taught me to slow down right away. I busted out the ol' Lemond Poprad for this race. I love this steel framed Orange/Red bike... Go to www.webcyclery.com to see more pictures and results from the race. There were about 100 racers and it was nice to be racing with folks we have made friends with around town. There is a post race happiness pic and a pic of my leg from the crash, not sure what I hit!! I also posted a action shot from Jon Tapper at www.Sallgoodsports.com here in Bend, OR.There are two more races in the series and I fully intend to complete both races. Enjoy and to all bike enthusiasts you should try a cross race as they are a blast!!
