DINO #2 - Brown County State Park

Where to start? What a fabulous day for racing! It may have been on the warm side, but we were blessed again with perfect trail conditions. Team Bicycle Station had a great turnout including some first-timers. While I met him for the first time on Sunday, I wonder if this was Zane Wischmeier's first race after seeing the results. He dominated the Juniors. Another new face this year found success in the Cat 3 Women's race; congratulations Baylee!

From the stories following the race, it seems this was one of the more intense races with some close results. (For a complete list of results, check the DINO website.) Rivals from nearby Kentucky showed up again; if you remember, several made the long haul to Warsaw as well. A quick tally of the results netted over 300 participants throughout the categories. Yay for Indiana racing!

On a personal note, I had some bad luck again with a rear flat. (Is this karma for the trash talk I was giving Denny & Danny??) Having the SLOWEST mechanical ability, I lost quite a bit of time putting a tube in. While I finished last, I still gained 193 points for the X-wing fighters. Remember, we still have the team competitions within the series. Always Persevere! You'll be glad you did.


Thanks to Matt L. for the great pics!

What a great looking team!

#1 in action

How many men did you pass, Mer?

Mike B. assured us he was well rested after the birth of his daughter.
Congrats, Mike!

Sean takes a break from the road for some trail action.


Feske is getting ready to make his move.

Denny doesn't need to trash talk the girls;

he just shows us how it's done.

And Blake, "What lap are we on?"

Extreme perseverance!
