Pain Haven

Several members of the team decided to spontaneously take on the 30 mile Pain Haven race up by Midland Mi. I have to say the name of this event is perfect. The course had some sweet downhill runs followed by some nice steep climbs. The single track was intense. Most of the single track reminded me of a rough pump track with tight turns, bridges some wicked off camber downhill turns and much much more!! Our very own Mark P. placed second with a finish time of 2 hours and 2 minutes while Derek and I (Ed) finished. Congrats to Steve Kinley of Sobe / Cannondale for his finish and a big thank you to Jen D from our team for helping out during the race and to the promoters Jeff and Jen!

If you asked me right after the race, "would I do it again" I might have said no but looking back at it, I will definetly add this race to next years list!!

USAC Finals

Wow! Another USAC series is over and congratulations to all the teams and individuals that took part in this awesome racing experience. Cycletherapy was able to have seven riders in the top three and everyone who raced the full series placed in the top five. During the final few races we where lucky enough to have Cheryl and Jennifer join our team and immediately started adding first place medals to the team! For some of us this is the start of Cross season and for others it is time to get ready for races like Peak 2 Peak, Iceman, Fall Harvest at Lake Orion and more.
