Hello Crew!
Tennessee District Team Time Trial Championships and Criterium
Cumberland Cycles Crew Mates Jeff Parmelee, Jack Evans, Aaron Denney and Roger Whitlock participated in the Tennessee Time Trial District Championships as a Category V team and they won their division! As a team, the four of them worked together to cover the 25 miles in as fast a time as possible. Their time was 60:54! Over all they placed 9th out of 15 teams! This is really great, and hats off to the four of them!
Jack Evans also participated in the Individual time trial and placed 9th. Finally, Jack and Aaron Denney both participated in the Criterium event. While Aaron was off the front with three laps to go, he crashed by taking a corner to fast and too hard. Aaron did not finish the race even though he was poises to win! What a "heart breaker"!!!!!!!
Jack Evans placed 2nd in his crit, edging out a fellow who has placed 6th in the World Championships recently!!!! Jack is certain a great crit rider and he continues to place well in the Tennessee Circuit!
At present
I am on my way to Colorado for some much needed R&R with Debbie and her kids. This is my off time and I plan to take at least 6 weeks off from serious training. I will be riding during this time but only in an non-structured manner. I want to ride with younger, newer riders and bring a couple of more riders up into the racing ranks for next year. I will post a ride schedule soon; but in short, we will continue the Barnsburg rides @ 6 PM on Tuesday and Thursday - but I will not be riding aggressively until the first of November. So if you'd like to come out and spin with me, please just show up on Tuesday or Thursday at Barnsburg at 6 PM and I will ride with you and answer any questions you might have about racing and or training for 2008.
Saturday and Sunday will have rides throughout the fall - and these will be developmental/foundation rides for anybody who is considering racing for our team next year. We will post ride information on a weekly basis.
I will recap out year in more detail soon, but let me just mention that we had folks in 70 different events with 242 individual starts! Everybody out there, Gran Fondo, Texas Road House, Papa Johns, Bike Zoo, Honda/Dancing Bear, Melting Pot and other great teams know who we are now, and we are poised to have a great 2008 season.
When I am more rested, I plan to write a complete summary of our 2007 racing season!!!!!
