There’s been a lot of bike racing going on lately and the Alterra WORS was the most recent. After some good races out east I was excited to give it a go back on Wisconsin soil. Ty and the entire Alterra crew put on an excellent event and I had a good time out there racing around Crystal Ridge. The result left something to be desired, but coming away with 6th after bouncing around in the singletack so much, I’m happy to take it. The legs felt good and I was climbing well so next time my handling skills show up I’ll be all set. Honestly though, the Alterra singletrack is the tightest, most twisted stuff I’ve ridden probably since last racing there in ‘04. Good times and a cue for some more bike practice.

Next on the calendar is the Ore to Shore. I’m feeling good about this one and it ought to be a fun weekend kicking off the Triple Crown.  Before racing again though I’m going to throughly enjoy a weekend without zipping on a number plate. Will I be the only one racing 26″ wheels at the O2S?  -TJ
