    RIDE Cyclery had a great weekend of racing at Vail Lake!

    Saturday started off as a cold January morning, rolling the RIDE 2U van into the SoCal Endurance 8 Hours of SoCal event at 6:30 AM. The temps ramped up quick as the racers were called up to the starting line.

    When the race started, the temps were perfect and not a cloud in the sky! I was actually able to meet one cyclist I have admired for years, Tinker Juarez! Even at 54, he was out there tearing it up as usual.

    Keith Omundson, a new rider for the Purely Dental/RIDE Cyclery team this season, raced in the 4 Hour Solo/Men's Open Division and finished 2nd! He has been a great addition to the team, also winning at the Dirty 30!

    As the day wore on, the conditions got dustier and dustier. I was working a lot with one of the Purely Dental/RIDE Cyclery riders, Michael Sowinski, as he was racing Solo in the 8 Hour, Masters 50-59 category. Handing off water bottles and keeping them full. Mike ended up finishing 2nd! Congrats Mike!

    Jim Salazar, the manager of the Purely Dental/RIDE Cyclery team was racing the 8 Hour with his 9 year old son, Mason! They did great, completing 8 laps. Juniors better look out, Mason is going to be a force to be reckoned with on the bike.

    Teammate, Eric Wilson, finished a hard fought day just off the podium in 7th in the 8 Hour Solo/Men's Open Division. Great job Eric!

    To close out the day, the Purely Dental/RIDE Cyclery 2-Man Team needed a sub 52 minute lap from Seth Watson to shore up a 4th Place finish, Seth had been working hard all day, but his times had been tailing off on his last couple of laps. As the announcer was calling off the remaining minutes in the 8 Hour race, Seth appeared! He finished with a 50:09! Way to push through Seth!

    All in all, it was a very successful outing and I look forward to a great race season from the Purely Dental/RIDE Cyclery mountain bike team!

     

    Purely Dental/RIDE Cyclery MTB Team is heading to Vail Lake!

    Tomorrow morning, the Purely Dental/RIDE Cyclery mountain bike team is headed up to Vail Lake for the SoCal Endurance Series 8 Hours of SoCal #1!

    The RIDE 2U van is following the team up to Vail Lake to give our guys some support during the race. We are looking forward to a long day of racing and continuing the successes of last season into 2017. We hope to see you out there!

    Spending time at the Las Pulgas Entrance at Camp Pendleton today

    Today started off calm with a few drops of rain, then cleared. When I first set up, there was a light breeze and it was warming up. This is our first weekend at the Las Pulgas Entrance to Camp Pendleton.

    It has been great to see so many riders swing through and say Hi!

    It has cooled off quite a bit from this morning after the wind started to pick up. As I pack up here, I am going to spend the second half of the day at Calavera in Carlsbad.

    Wrenching in the rain with RIDE 2U

    Wow, what a difference a day makes. Yesterday, I was on the East side of Mira Mesa, near I-15 when it was beautiful and sunny, then today, I was in Clairmont/Pacific Beach area and had rain the entire way down I-5.

    I love the ease for our customers RIDE 2U provides. Getting into the shop can be difficult enough, it is exponentially more difficult when it is raining. My customers today were able to stay dry while we chatted and I worked on their bikes.

    Hopefully it will clear up when I drive over to Scripps Ranch and Poway this afternoon.
