CU Crit

This past weekend the team was greeted with very nice weather for a home town race at the CU Research Park on Saturday. The same could not be said for Sunday, with a 20 degree temperature drop, a mix of rain and snow and 2 races getting cancelled. Jim, Josh, CJ and Matt S. lined up with the Pro/1/2 field as there was no maters races this weekend. New 45 Plus rider Jeff also raced with the cat. 3's. The pro/1/2 event went well, with all riders comfortably finishing in the field, happy to get some quality training under their belts.

Matt Segur rode a strong race for Mix1 as well. It was Matt's first race of the season and he made the main breakaway of the day. Unfortunately that breakaway was caught, but Matt was happy with the effort.



















Josh making his Mix1 Masters Cycling team debut and this race severed as his return to racing after a several year break. Josh will never tell anyone this, but Josh is a past winner of the CU Research Park Crit in the pro/1/2 category. He won the race in the early 2000's from a very strong breakaway. Josh looks solid in his new kit, his new Velo Vie team frame and new Mavic Cosmic Carbon wheels.

CJ riding in the field with a look on his face that says, "man I am having a lot of fun". Luckily is new Mavic wheels kept him moving along at a fast pace!
