Team VeloVeloce at State TT championships


Hey,

This is a pretty good looking crew for having just completed a beastly State Time Trial Championship course in Norfolk, NE. The 25 mile course (40K) was 12.5 miles out, turn around and 12.5 miles back. The first easterly part of the course was marvelous. Wind at our backs, speeds were really fast. Then we turned into the 25-35mph wind out of the northwest. That last hill to the turn-around point was a killer. After the turn, we had some relief, but only temporary. The last part of the race was westerly into the teeth of the howling wind. Never mind the endless hills without any flats.


Afterwards, we all gathered around the awards tent. While waiting for the collection of hardware, we snapped this team photo. Fred, Pete, Jackie, Randy and John! Good showing for our sponsor, Xtreme Wheels of Council Bluffs. Thanks Bill and Blaine!!
