March Highlights



(thanks to Action Images for the photo above)
STL Revolution Highlights:

Rain, rain, stay away--at least for another day! We're hoping to get an unofficial Wednesday night ride in. If the roads are dry at 6pm, we are riding the "Wed Nite Ride" loop from the St. Louis Bread Co in Webster Groves.

-----------------
Sylvan Springs Crit
Carrie pulls out a win for Team Revolution! I like to think I helped a bit, but those of you who have seen Carrie race know she didn't need me there to set her up. On the other hand, my fifth place finish wasn't quite the proud finish I wanted out of my first race, but I did manage to get back on my bike after sliding out in the last turn. I'm still nursing a not-so-cleanly "shaven" leg...(rookie!)

-----------------
A quick update on the MTB race this past weekend is up on the Forum.

-----------------
There's a road race in southwest Missouri on Sunday! Looks like 4 of the 5 TeamRev girls will be representing! We encourage anyone who wants to get their feet wet (we hope that's not a literal phrase) in racing will come join us. Too far with too little notice? I know. Carrie's planning a "Race-Ready" (see clinic descriptions under "Competition") clinic soon. Interested? Let us know!

-----------------
Upcoming clinics include:
- "Roadside Repair" hosted and sponsored by Mesa Cycles: April 14 Time TBA
- I know there are more, but I'm drawing a blank right now! Check back here or on the site!

-----------------
Survey!
If you didn't receive a survey via email from us, it likely got bounced back by your spam filter. Contact Carrie

to fill out our quick cycling interest survey (it would really help us make this club better!). Please?

Kurt, with Action Images, has been busy traveling to Cali to take beautiful pictures of big races that make me drool and my hands sweat with adrenalin. Some of the images of the cornering are remarkable....and yet so reminiscent of a recent, disastrous mistake I made (Sylvan Springs Crit "crash"--lame).

-----------------
I know there's more, but I'm distracted by the work that I'm supposed to be doing...
