The engine has started to hum for Team Legacy Energy Ciclismo. The Team enjoyed a great race last weekend at The Fort Collins Cycling Festival. It was nice to race on such amazing roads - our hometown roads - and be supported by our hometown community. The challenging courses are world class which makes for amazingly challenging and exciting racing. The team’s depth has grown with the entire team rising up a level and putting our riders in 4th (Dan), 5th (Ian), 10th (Jarred), and 15th (Brad) places in the Road Race and 4th (Ian), 8th (Paul), 10th (Brad), 11th (Jarred), and 13th (Dan) places in the Hill Climb. The team rides strong, communicates well, and supports each other. It’s great to see the guys truly come together like this.
This weekend the Team races at the Dead Dog SR in Laramie, WY. The road race covers 86 miles and climbs over 2 mountain passes on Saturday. On Sunday, the criterium kicks off at high noon and a 10 mile TT (at almost 9000ft) heads out later in the afternoon. We have 10 days until we leave for our next big National Racing Calendar objective – The Cascade Cycling Classic. It's a 5-day Stage Race with 6 stages. It will be our biggest challenge yet. This weekend we will put the polish on the Team’s form and raise our hum to a roar!
You can read about the Fort Collins Cycling Festival races at www.ciclismoracing.com. You can follow the Dead Dog SR on our blog this weekend and the full story will be up Tuesday. The Team will also post daily updates on the blog burning the Cascade Classic SR.
Enjoy the racing!! And if you're not too busy this weekend, come on up to Laramie!
