Qualification for the National Mountain Bike Championship


Today was a good day. Started out at 9 am with SWIMBA to pre-ride the course for the Coyote Classic - a qualifier race for the National Mountain Bike Championships this July in Sun Valley.

Went back out and raced at 3 pm. Long hard single track climb and a very fast downhill with a few shorter climbs near the end-two laps and nearly cramped to the point of not being able to walk let alone ride. did plenty of walking on the second lap. finished in about 2:05 min good enough for first place in the over 50 age group for Category 3.

I'll go to Sun Vally and see how I do with the rest of the national competitors. The Energy return Bicycle was Great !

Hi Harley I recently tried to use get in touch with the folks at ERB but bot a bounce from sales@energyreturnbicycle.com. Do you know if they are still in business? I was a long time slingshot admirer. Only from your site did I come to realize the genesis! Too cool.
