Race recap from Snow Mountain Ranch

Just a couple weeks ago, CAMBYR was down in Granby Colorado for race #1 of the Colorado High School Mountain Bike League.  It was such an amazing event!  Nine youth from Casper raced their hearts out.  The weather was beautiful all day up to the final lap of the JV race.  There were 4 of the racers on the team that got caught in the pouring rain and were pulled from finishing their final lap.  With most of the team being new to the NICA sanctioned races, it was an exciting experience to see over 500 kids racing!! 

Great Start

What an great start we've had to our season!  10 kids in grades 9-12 have registered for NICA and are planning on racing the Colorado League races as well as the three Wyoming races.  We have another 6-10 kids in junior high too!!

EVERYONE, INCLUDING PARENTS, are invited to tuesday's practice so we can discuss racing and practicing.  Practices are from 5:30-7:00pm each Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.  

See you all Tuesday!!

Fun Summer

What a busy summer the racers of CAMBYR have had this year!  From racing in Denver, to Breckenridge, to Curt Gowdy and even a few of the team members took part in a week long mountain bike camp in Laramie.  The kids are learning so much and us coaches are having a great time seeing the racers on the trails.  The local mountain bike series has been a great place for us all to see each other and talk about racing.  The first practice and team meeting will be Thursday August 1st.  We will do a little bike fitting and then go for a ride before our pizza party.  At that time, we can register any youth that still have not been "invited" by our online registration.  

We have a wonderful bunch of talented and knowledgable ride leaders this year and our practices will be awesome.  We have so much help, that we want to add another day.  So Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursdays will be practices.  Practice locations will vary, so pay attention to your emails and our Facebook page (coming very soon).  

Are you on the email list?  If not, shoot me an email at casperhsmtb@gmail.com and i'll get you added.

See you soon and enjoy these photos of some of the team members racing their bikes this summer!!
