2014 - Ambition or Stupidity?

This year I'm going to try my hand at some things I've never done before. such as Gravel Grinders, Endurance Mountain bike races (4 & 6 Hour races), and maybe an Enduro. Also going to be supplementing in some local cross-country races.

So here's my proposed schedule for this year-2014.

January 12 - Winter Short Track - Race #1

January 18&19 - NCCX- Biltmore Race

January 26 - Winter Short Track - Race #2

February 9 - Winter Short Track - Race #4

February 16 - Winter Short Track - Race#5

March 2- Maxxis Southern Classic - The Knot

March 9- Tom Dula's Revenge or Maxxis Southern Classic - Shootout @ Angler's Ridge

March 22- Tour de Charlotte with Faster Mustache

April 5- 6 Hours of Warrior Creek

April - Charlotte Mountain Bike Summer series (15 races)

April 26 - 6 hour Gear Grinder - Hendersonville, NC

April 27 - Maxxis Southern Classic - Stump Jump

May 4 - Maxxis Southern Classic - Harbison Race to the River

May 18 - Maxxis Southern Classic - Riverfront Classic - USNWC

May 23 - Mountain Sports Festival - CX Race

June - Tree Shaker - 4 Hour

July 26 - Jerdon Mountain Challenge


There will also be some local Wednesday night races at the Anne Springs, Whitewater Center, Fisher, and maybe North Meck. June and July is about have fun- trips to the mountains, long road rides, and riding for fun. Then after Jerdon I'm going to be resting until CX Season - Hopefully a month or more.


September - may be bring something new from Slippery Sasquatch Racing to Charlotte

September - Asheville Cyclocross Series (4 races)

September 28 - 6 Hour Grind on the Greenway

October 5 - Wilson's Revenge CX

October - North Carolina Cyclocross Series (15 races)

November - North Meck  Cyclocross Series (4 races)

I'm expecting this year to be a very fun year! With the new team, new races, more races, killer bikes, and new friends! I'm also hoping to be at a reasonable fighting weight before CX season.
