With the Cx Worlds out of the way it is time for
the NECS/MRC season to commence. Normally we would open the Non Race series
with Top Chef's premier event, the Chinaman 100k but with the post surgical
recovery taking a bit longer then anticipated and C-Dubs inability to translate
at this time, the event has been postponed until a warmer time of the year.
But that hasn't stopped El Obamador from his evil
ways. Yes, Saturday 4/20 (please note the correctness of the date), the Bear
Mountain Beatdown will roll. As you might recall from last year many of us were brought to our
knees sobbing like a little kid that dropped his ice cream cone after all of
the climbing was done. This year there will be even moar, some dirt roads (this
this is the latest craze in non racing), and a special extra credit summit that
rewards all that conquer with a Bear Mountain Ale from the Defiant Brewery
(maybe this will get the Mayor to finally join).
A scant 6 weeks later on Memorial Day weekend Sunday will be the Gran
Fondo, a kinder and gentle version that has no major climbs but a bunch of
rollers and some choice back road riding. Keep reading for moar updates.
