A buncha idiots went to a bike race…..

….and came away pretty good!

Solid team efforts all around. Rain for all! Results still trickling in, but at this count it looks like Anna Clark scored 2nd in the women’s 4′s, Brian Gerow 15th in the mens 4′s, and Crawfalini snagged a 4th place flying solo in the masters field. All other Ironclad riders finished with all bones and skin intact, with some on borrowed wheels.

Mostly early races saw us in pouring rain, then afterward, hot tubs! Things could have been worse. While good competition and flat tires bedeviled us, we still did our best and managed some to pull off some alright action. We had riders representing the black and yellow all day; some in the front, some in the middle, and some pleasuring riding well of the back. It’s really the only way to bring a well rounded racing experience to the throngs of racing fans packing the roadsides of Henry Hagg Lake.

Hazel is pretty amazed and just how dirty pops can get.

Greg and Bruce get ready for the race in style. Now if we can just get that dog on a bike…
