Smooth Landing

This news is already a month old. I wrote this all out several weeks ago, but for some reason only saved it as a daft (and didn't post it). So here it is:

Free Agent Racing's mountain bike season has come to an end, and we finished with an bang. In the final race of the season, the Keystone Climax, Steve brought home a victory in the Expert men's race, and Adam arrived shortly later in 4th place. Adam held on for 3rd place in the regional series, while Steve jumped up into a tie for 7th.

Left: Adam (#37) and Steve (#35) lined up for their XC race at Keystone.

In my XC race, I was plagued by what has been my second flat in two races. Both times I was in good position, and was moving up through the group prior to the flat. Hopefully I've got these flats out of the way for another two years. Jesse was also hampered by bad luck, as he crashed in downhill practice, and hurt his arm enough so that he decided it would be best if he didn't do his race.
