It was a long hard season but the 2009 12hrs of Temecula series is finally over. At these events, anything can happen, and trust me it does! Here's a few random facts about what "really" happened.
- Rob consumed and unknown quantity of beverages but still managed to maintain our bikes just fine
- I had two flat tires and flipped over the bars (going uphill) when I threw my chain!
- Someone gave Russell a light that failed on the last lap... (that would be me! ooops)
- Gary gave us the inside scoop of what happened at Leadville this year
- Lisa destroyed me on the climbs :)
- Chocolate chip cookies are still the food of choice, followed closely by PBJs
- The 4 Person team moved from 13th at the beginning of the season up to 3rd in last race
- Single speeds are very unforgiving at endurance events (duh)
- I drank beer between laps for first time ever
- Gary passed out on the table in the awards tent (evidence below)
Pro solo - AL
- finished 3rd, overall series winner
3 Person Open - Cy, Chris, Gary
- finished 1st, overall series winner
4 Person Open - Russell, Margaret, Lisa, Jeff
- 3rd in series
So congrats to everyone for a such a great effort this seasons.
Lastly, huge thanks to Jason Ranoa for promoting one of the best mountain bike events in SoCal! Be sure to check the list of new 12hr, endurance and fat tire events scheduled for next year.
See everyone next year!
