Ah, the smell of Spring air.  The green colors every where. The sweat in your eyes from the heart pounding efforts.  The bugs in your teeth from the road.  The aching of the elbows, creaking of the knees.  The dirt up your nose from trail riding on the back wheel of the guy in front of you....and best of all that smell of your cars interior after leaving your cycling shoes in it over night with the windows closed.  Yes, it's what we have all been waiting for.

And with all that brings a new season and a different Team look.  But wait, not a TEAM but a CLUB.  You read that right, C..L..U..B.....CLUB.  No not the type Bam Bam uses but a group of friends who have been riding and racing together for years and have relaxed in their efforts to be stupid fast in order to soak up some of the things they missed when all they focused on was keeping their eyes on the dirt trail 15 feet in front of them.  Gone are the days of lung busting races between the trees and up the hills.  Welcomed are the days ahead of more endurace relays and bbq's in the pits.  Well okay, there will still be lung busting solo races but not as often as in the past.

The best thing about going CLUB instead of TEAM is that just like Team, there is no "I" in CLUB and we don't sound so formal or threatening.    So keep an eye out for us at the local races.  We plan to show our skulls at more races this year than in the past.  And yes, the Twin Six Motor Jersey will be the unofficial "Official Club Jersey" with the already granted permission of Twin Six.

So here is your memo that there is a new Club coming to a race near you.  We've been slow getting it altogether and getting ourselves out to the races but we'll be there soon.  First up, the Fort Custer TT.
