Marcel Aguirre Wins The Optimus Ti


Congratulations to Marcel (aka SandPine) from Florida. He donated to the SORBA/Optimus Ti raffle online and just happened to be racing at Fool's Gold in the 100 mile.



Did we mention he did actually win this frame for $20 bucks!

We had a great time at Fool's Gold and enjoyed meeting everyone. If you haven't read about it yet check out Harlan Price's write up on CyclingNews of the entire event and the winners.

Adrenaline Race Team takes on Flagstaff

Darrin at the start

Adrenaline Race Team headed out to the Flagstaff Mountain Festival which was put on by Absolute Bikes in Flagstaff. Great race...all proceeds went to St. Mary's Food Bank Alliance. The Adrenaline Team had taken a couple months off racing and are now gearing up for the second half of the season. This race grouped all Pro, Semi-Pro, Expert, and Singlespeed together in one group, making for a big field at the start.

A few players from the race this past weekend:

Sara - had an awesome race and earned a 2nd place finish in the Women's Pro/Expert class.

Evan and Zach ready to race and lined up. Zach finished with a 10th place finish with Evan right behind him.

The start of the race had approximately 50 to 60 riders shooting out at the same time. Tom managed to get a small gap from the other SSers in the first lap and moved it up on the next two laps. Giving him a 5 minute lead.

Awards for the Single Speed class put Tom at 1st place and Darrin at 2nd place.

Congratulations Adrenaline Race Team!!! An awesome weekend for the entire team!
