2015 Annadel Mountain Bike Race
A little late in the season but the timing worked out well. The fog rolled in the night before and the temperature was perfect for the 2015 Annadel mountain bike race. Caught a few moments here and there from the race. Battery gave up the ghost shortly after the Lawndale descent. Always a good time…

2015 Boggs Funduro
More pictures here: 2015 Boggs Funduro I raced all three days and enjoyed and suffered the whole time. The new 8 hr course was a blast but definitely a butt kicker compared to the previous year’s. The hill climb hurt and then came back to remind me through the ache in my legs and lungs. The…

2014 Santa Rosa Cup CX Race 2
The Bike Monkey crew served up a flat and fast course at the Place To Play park in Santa Rosa. This location has been on the menu and the course was similar. But an extended route on the east end and some small adjustments for it made the race even better. And it was still…

2014 Santa Rosa Cup CX Race 1

Luckily the course was partially on a grass field which meant far less dust sucking. Watch the M35A/45A Men’s categories mixing it up and get a…

2014 Annadel XC Mountain Bike Race

2014 Lake Sonoma Series – Race 2
Had the chance to head to Sonoma for the 2nd race of the 2014 Lake Sonoma Series. This is a very fun but tough event. The riding there consists of single-track and fire roads. The single-track is a blast but tricky, rocky in places, with loose gravel, and thick dry grass. Oh, and the climbs…

2013 Santa Rosa CX Cup Race 2 – Singlespeed A
The second race of the Santa Rosa CX Cup series was held at a new venue, the First Baptist Church of Windsor. Thanks goes out to Pastor Lance, also a fellow cx racer, for helping provide a needed space to race. The course was a twisty mix of grass, gravel, pavement, and wood chips. The…
