NWCC Conference Championships

The Northwest Collegiate Cycling Conference Championships is coming to U of I at the end of April. Flyer above give you all the details.

On Sunday, April 27th, during the Crit races, there will be a fixed gear crit category. This is open to all fixies as well as single speeds. Depending on number of entries they will possibly divide the event into two categories. The race is 3 laps and they will have some prizes this year for the top placers. The cost of this race is $3 which covers $2 for insurance and the extra buck funds the prize pool.

So it is that time of the year again! Spring is upon us (well not today if your in the Moscow area) and its time to do another Alley Cat race! We are still trying to figure out some dates but is looking like it will happen sometime in the middle of April, around the 18th.

We'll keep you posted in the coming weeks as we get closer to race day!

Rapha Finale

Rapha Rides the TOC - Finale from RAPHA on Vimeo.

It took everything we had to survive our tour of California. We rode with grace and grit. We took to the tour some style, and of course, our curiosity and penchant for story. But to be sure, we also took all the muscle and lung we had, and we just barely had enough. We are not pros, this isn’t what we do for a living—in fact, most of us had never put more than a few days of anywhere close to this sort of mileage together. We weren’t at any point deluded about how fast we were, we knew that even under the best of circumstances our times would be nothing less than anemic in comparison to the pros. In fact, this was part of the reason to ride it, to do our best and relish in the results.

Weekend Getaway

Decided to head south for the weekend and do some skiing in the McCall Area. Here are some shots from Brundage and Tamarack. Couldn't have asked for a better weekend of weather!
