The C.C.R. bike scene

This Race is fast and scary! The block that it goes around has this nasty 2nd corner cuz it's downhill and the 4th corner is bad cuz the road narrows as you enter the corner! That being said, Chris A. and Dillon went to represent the E.V.

Both where not in the mood to crash. Dillon was going to the cape the same day for his 6th anniversary and this was Chris' 1st race since his crash in plainville (bad knee)

The race started fast, real fast! Then the inevitable crash! A rider went down hard on the line straight and took down a bunch with him! Dillon ran over a couple wheels and almost hit some poor guys head, but stayed upright! That crash brought the race to a halt with only 3 laps left! When the guys were chilling waiting for the race to resume, in a frantic 3 lap to go pace, Dillon's cpu read the AVG at 26MPH!!! The whistle blew and the 3 lap sprint was on! 2 corners later, another crash! Two guys went down with a curb blow out! Epic Velo stayed safe again. It was fast till the end where Dillon placed 35th and Chris placed 37th.

A good finish seeing as how the goal was to stay upright! Mission accomplished!

Sorry we've been gone so long! It is so busy here in the shop! Tune ups, rides and non stop customers make it tough to write a blog. But here one is:

This upcoming Sunday is the Hartford Crit! This race is fast and furious with excellent spectator sitting areas. This race has always been fun to race and to watch. The Epic Velo guys will be in the 3:20 Cat 4 race. Come on down to the green in Hartford and check out the race!

And, Tuesday night Sleeping Giant rides are in full effect with the avg. being 23.5 MPH for the ride. Nasty stuff... come in down to Cheshire Cycle & Repair at 5:30 or meet up with the group at Sleeping Giant at 6pm, if you can hold down your lunch!?
