Vacaville, CA - The Northern CA/Nevada Sr. District Criterium Championship was this Sunday in Vacaville. This race is also part of the California Cup series. Katheryn wanted to try to check "District Crit Champ" off her list before retiring, and I wanted a taste of race intensity before the Cyclocross season starts in a few weeks, so off we went. We were successful on both counts! Read Katheryn's Race Report...

Santa Cruz, CA - The annual road series here in NorCal, the CalCup is taking place for 3 weeks in late August/early Sept.

What if Phil and Paul commentated on our daily lives?
“She’s wearing the mask of pain!” “Shut your eyes, shut your mind to the pain!”
I am back in my embrace-adversity, pick-myself-up, and get-after-it mode. During 9th of the 10 stages of the Giro d’Italia Feminine, where I was supporting the USA National team in its epic attempt to win with Mara (Abbott), I found myself in the wrong place at the wrong time … again. OH. Could it really be? No. Yes. Really? Read More...

Bend, OR - The Cascade Lakes RR is one of the classic stages of Cascade, with the finish up to Mt. Bachelor Ski resort. It was another stage for the climbers and Erinne proved again that she is one of the top climbers of the North American peloton with a strong 3rd place finish. She also extended her 3rd place GC lead by another 30 sec. over 4th place Alison Powers. Read More...Stage 4 & 5 Race Reports included...

Stage 2 of the Cascade Classic is a 16 mile TT. The course is the same as the one for US nationals without the extra "lollipop" loop at the end. It is similar to the TT at Tour of the Gila - gradual uphill all the way out and fast downhill on the way back. Erinne had a breakthrough TT at Gila, placing 2nd there, so she and the team were hoping for another good ride here and she did not disappoint us! Read More about Erinne's TT win...
