Championship Weekend
Wow, it looks like the medals are still rolling in. Colby started the weekend off with a gold medal in the Jr. 15-16 OBRA championship road race. I haven’t heard how it went down, but I can imagine that he rode away from the pack on the first sustained climb and no one ever saw him again…… Way to go Colby!! Your jersey drawer has to be getting full with all these OBRA Champion jersey’s you’re collecting..
Sunday saw the NRR squads out again in the OBRA championship TTT. Colby was part of the cat 4/5 Bronze medal team along with Gary, Justin, and Dave Lofstead. In the cat 3 race, the team of Allen, Ronny, Bruce, and John Obrien also brought home a Bronze medal. Joe Cipale raced on a team with some Rose City guys and also brought home a bronze in the Master 160-199’s.
Great job everyone! What a great weekend for racing!!!!

Dean, you are all over this blog thing! Maybe Colby will write something, but he said he was part of a five-man breakaway and sprinted for the line (up a hill, I believe) to win by a bike length or so.
As for our TTT team, I think we were all pretty happy with the way things went and it felt pretty smooth. I know I had a blast!

Carol took some pictures of both the NRR teams and the “podium” with medals. I’ll get them posted in a couple days.
Super day all the way around at the TTT.
