Alpine Valley Recap.

We decided to hit up the 2nd WORS race this weekend. It was the Alpine Valley race down in SE Wisconsin. I wasnt feeling that great but we were staying at the resort so I was looking forward to a nice weekend away. We arrived friday night and I had a nasty head and chest cold but was hoping I would feel better on Sunday. Saturday we slept in and then had breakfast at the resort, which had opened that weekend. We then drove into town for some snacks, etc. When we got back, I got ready and pre-rode a lap. This course has a ton of climbing and 3 creek crossings. The weather was a bit chilly in the AM but turned into a perfect day for racing. I felt better on Sunday but was still congested and didnt do very well in the race. Before the season ends I want to be competitive in one of these races. My next race looks to be the WORS #3 race at 9 mile forest in 2 weeks.

Here is a picture of Melissa and I after we pre-rode the kids race course.

After the 3rd creek crossing there was a nasty steep uphill which I had to run.

Ahh......downhill

Are you hitting up the Metro 12 in Milwaukee this year? That looks to be my next 12 after this one in Nebraska this weekend
