Chicken Crit 2009

customer appreciation at it's finest.....we'll get you as much food and drink as you'd like and then send you off on a bike that doesn't really fit any of your practical needs, nor will it fit. But you'll be happy that you did it, just maybe not the next morning......Chicken Crit 2009, Oct 30th. Come and reflect this past year's worth of cycling.

Moosecross

So, this past weekend was spent slumming around the Teton's on both sides of the pass. The hiking in the Park was great, but the cyclocross action on the Idaho side was fantastic. The fellas from Fitzgeralds Bike Shop put on a great weekend of bike racing. The weather was perfect, the courses were tough, and the fields were choked full of fast dudes. I was not in this catagory, but still rode hard and had a great time charging around in the dirt. A few photos.

This is what going anerobic and getting dropped looks like and then thinking about stopping in at the establishment in the tan building. Teton Brewery.

Day two was better for me and i ended up having a fun battle with this guy....the mayor of Victor and owner of Fitzgerald's bike shop. It came down to a sprint for 8th/9th.....Scott sprinted and i couldn't cover. Nice work Scott
