and here's a picture of Darryl and the Mound of Renown. The race was greasy by the time the C's raced- thawed mud atop froze ground. I biffed and concussed myself warming up for the B's. I fought the stump and the stump won!
Brian Tober of Wheelfast in Chatham IL sponsored the swag which was incredible- a Sram XO shifer and derailler set and a SID fork, at the high end, for example! Plus 5 foot tall trophies with gold milking goat figures on top. We roasted a kid goat and there wasn't much but bones left when we were done eating.
This Saturday is the finale at Weentzville MO with Momentuym cycles sponsoring the swag. |
