We had a great night of riding. Slow transitions, everyone got some sleep and all enjoyed the restorative power of the sun in the morning. Cell coverage is terrible, but the scenery makes up for that.
It's actually looking like there will be a Race Across Oregon this year. Assuming that nothing major changes on the Coronavirus front, the FAsT Monkeys will be doing a social distancing 444 mile loop around some of our favorite spots in Central/Eastern Oregon in mid-July. Fingers-crossed, it would be great to get out and do some non-virtual racing!
The Monkeys are planning to ride this year's 20th Anniversary Race Across Oregon. This year the route is actually across Oregon, beginning in Ontario, OR (on the border with Idaho) and finishing in Newport, OR (on the coast). More miles @621'ish, but quite a bit less climbing at just under 33k. Sounds like a good trade! The team roster is coming together, preparatory suffering is occurring both indoors and out, and the Monkeys are getting ready to ride again! The Cave all set up for some indoor training
No Race Across Oregon for the Monkeys this year 😥 Andrew and Rich were in Belgium, Jim was in Germany and Chris was out with a couple of minor(ish) injuries. Hopefully the Monkeys can return in 2018! Andrew and Jason are planning to ride this year's Hoodoo 300 as a 2x with Jim as Crew Chief. More (sporadic) updates to follow...
