Night Train

The Night Train was a cool race this year. New promoters did a good job. There were live bands, some good riders, and Fontana was actually in good shape!! The course was set up for a 9.2 mile loop with 2700 ft of climbing per lap (ouch).

Our team was Adam, Billy, Jim, and me. We were entering the 4 person open class. Bio-Wheels and Sycamore Cycles were there as well, and we knew we would have our work cut out.

We stayed in 2nd pretty much all day, behind Sycamore (and Wes's record laps), and held our position well. Our laps stayed consistent and we ended up about 15 min ahead of 3rd, but still a lap out of first. We had no major mechanicals, and we all held up well. We had some good support from Keith at I-9 and Jacob McGahee with neutral support from Liberty.

It was our 3rd 12 hour race and the 3rd podium for Velosports!! Thanks to the promoters and to our sponsors. Check out the pics. (Lindsay added the blurbs!)
