A day at the races.


The V. sport health crew packed up the truck and headed west this morning.  We'll let the pictures do (most of) the talking.  In a nutshell:  This was NCCX #12, put on by Pirate Race Productions.   Weather was perfect, with a cool start and a mix of sun and clouds all day.  Temps hovered in the upper 40s to low 50s.  Racers hovered by the keg in the heated party tent.


The podium awaits

Rip tackles the barriers with style

Cat 4 men, known for their excellent beards

Or their stylish 'red' tires

This was an easy race to watch
Kelly, resplendent in green

Scott Miller, doing his best Jens Voigt face

The barriers provided little hassle for the skilled

Talia Espresso was on point


Rip extended her lead as the laps counted down

The mud was slick early, but like glue by noon
    
Beautiful crumbling history


Head down

V. sport on the scene

Juniors wise-up and run the mud section

Sirena frees herself from the mud

Singlespeed glory


No one rode the off-camber run-up
The line up

Matt Canter, riding for Ken's

Everyone left the race with some take-home presents
