Back to Work

Well after a slight lull in the race schedule the past two weeks Team Indiebike is back in action this weekend. While we may not have been racing we have certainly been hard at work training, so watch out. I know some riders took the opportunity this weekend to join up with the local CIBA group ride. Including the ride up to Carmel and back they put in 70 hard, fast miles. A few others rode down toward Sweetwater lake to ride hills in preparation for the upcoming races which will include a little more elevation change than us flatlanders are used to. Tim and John continue their preparation for Leadville in August (wow I still cant believe they are really doing it). I rode in town this weekend but still managed to be in the saddle for more than six hours.

This weekend Indiebike returns to racing with two great events:

Saturday we will be heading over to Cincinnati, OH for the Hyde Park Blast. This is going to be a huge event with big fields, lots of spectators and a big purse. So far the roster includes Cory, Dustin, Brad and Steve. Racing starts after 4:00 pm so you don't even have to get up early.

Sunday is the return of the Morgan Monroe State Forest Road Race. This classic race was greatly missed from last year's schedule. It includes several trips up Beanblossom hill, one of the best and most notorious central Indiana climbs. Its the same climb featured in the Hilly Hundred Sunday route but without the fried chicken a few miles up the road.

Lets have a good showing this weekend. Come and put that training to the test. Save time and money. Don't forget to preregister.
