EVOL Race Report from Breeze Holicky
It was a beautiful weekend for some cx racing, although what weekend isn’t good for racing cx?!
The Feedback Cup on Saturday presented with some good off camber mountain
bike style features as well as a nice endurance hill on the back side. I got off to a decent start but faded a bit
on some of the more technical sections. I
want to give a shout out to Terri Smith who went down in the Womens 40+ race (
at the same time as our race). She broke some bones, tore some ligaments and yet
is optimistic and already talking about
getting back out there!
Sunday's Lucky Pie Race was a totally different style of
racing. It was a grassy course with lots of
sandpits (that changed each lap), some epic berms and really fun twisty
turney sections! The quicker you were
out of the corners and onto the pedals the stronger your advantage! Christa Baddick, Jess Case and I all raced the
women's open race while Grant Holicky and Chris Case were representing the men in the 40+
category. Christa brought home the win in the women's open race while Chris took the top step of the podium in the mens 40+ and Grant finished a solid fifth.
It’s a blast getting to come out and race each weekend with
the EVOL team and really fun to have Jess Case back in the game. While River and Anika mostly played in the
sandpit this weekend, they are not far from representing the next generation on
the cx course!
