Hillside Road Race (Formerly Skull Valley)

We need a little more representation from the mens team for this Sundays race. Yes it will be tough but in the end worth it! Climbing and climbing - 55 miles! This will be a great race if you need a few extras in order to cat up. If interested, any one wanting a ride to the race this Sunday I will be leaving the valley @ 2:30 -3AM to arrive at the course by approx. 6-6:30. Starting times vary but this should put us there in plenty of time for any last minute preperations. I have room for an extra rider or two. Cell# 602-721-6891. Hope to see you there!

Congratulations to Matt, Steve and Jim! Skull Valley is on Sunday the 22nd

Way to go guy's this am at the Arizona Cotton Classic time trial. If you have any pictures from your camera could you either post them or send them to my email!

Team Meeting

Team Meeting Saturday, JULY 17th. We will be discussing important topics for the 2011 race season. Please let Kathy C. or I know if you are coming!!!

From Escondido, CA

I'm not trying to rub it in, but...I've been spending the week riding through the flower fields, fig, citrus and avocado groves, and the oaks and manzanita of north county San Diego. Here, 2500 feet of climbing in 20-30 miles is mandatory, but at 75 degrees it doesn't matter that much. You can do it all in zone 2. Yes, it has been hot, but only in the 80s for a couple of hours. Marine layer in the morning has kept it nice and cool. I've only been flipped off once so I figure it's a good week in Southern California. Next summer I can open it up for a few days for a team training camp if we have enough interest.

This was a super fun, awesome race and I just want to thank Trish and Travis, and everyone who came up to volunteer, for putting in so much work to make this race happen for us. It was truly an awesome TWJ team experience, if we weren't racing, we were volunteering. It really makes a difference to have support at a race. THANK YOU!

SWEEPING THE PODIUM IN FLAGSTAFF!

Flagstaff Omnium

What a great weekend of racing!! My team goal was realized this am when Two Wheel Jones Racing swept the podium at the Road Race! Shawna took 1st, Kathy Eaton took 2nd and I took 3rd!! The day couldn't have gotten any better! Trish will have pictures very soon!!

See you all at Bike the Bluff!

Flagstaff Omnium

I'm with Steve - going to Flag to race and get some more points so I can cat up to 3. So far there are only about 80 racers registered. The weather is gonna be awesome. I am not doing the Hill Climb since I am not a climber, so I am only registered for the circuit race & the Road Race. The CR is a 1.8 mile course which is flat and fast and the Road Race is similar to what we did at AZ RR champs - downhill for the 1st half - turn around and come back up. Not doing the hill climb also saves me from having to pay for 2 nights of hotel rooms, I only need a hotel for Saturday night.
If I'm willing to do this Road Race, all of you should be willing, I'm a wuss when it comes to hills, I hate them, but I'm gonna do it to get points. Everyone is gonna be in the same boat with regards to the elevation.
C'mon, come join us, so far it's just me, Shawna, Steve.... and Kathy Eaton is gonna do the RR on Sunday.

Flagstaff Omnium...Need Help

I think many racers are burned out...we are about six months into the racing season. That's a long time to maintain discipline and focus. I know I'm slipping in both areas...it's too damn hot, etc. But...everyone is in the same boat. Now is the time to get some points and results while others slack. Please consider racing in Flagstaff on June 12-13. Yes, I know the course profiles are hellish, but what, really, do we have to lose? You are going to be a year older next year, and the next, and the next...let's get out there and have some fun!

Memorial Day Ride?

Any plans for a Memorial Day ride? I'm going to do something "longish", maybe about three hours, at a very moderate pace...please respond or email me if you have something planned.

Also, don't forget about the omnium in Flagstaff on June 12-13. Great opportunity to get some high-altitude racing in before Bike the Bluff. We've got a few TWJ racers signed up but we need some more.

Volunteer Meeting

Sorry for the confusion, but the meeting is for volunteers not the riders who are racing. So if you are racing Bike the Bluff, no need to come, only if you want to.

Volunteer meeting for Bike The Bluff

We will be having our volunteer meeting for Bike the Bluff after the ride (9:00) on Saturday, June 12th. We will have it at Starbucks right by the shop. The meeting won't be long. If you can't make it, we can reschedule with you during the week. Otherwise, see you then!
Thanks!

I dedicate this one to...myself and you know who you are
