Elkhart Time Trial August & 2019 Final Edition

First and foremost thank you racers for joining us the 2nd Thursday of the past 5 months.  It has been a tremendous first season for me as a race director.  Quite honestly other than April this has been some of the best weather we have had in a long time.  It is my hope that each of you enjoyed pushing your limits every time.  We saw records fall, new friendships found, rivalries begin, and rivalries continue.  As for August edition it was a perfect night to a great series.  Thank you again for being a part of our series.

Over the course of the year we saw 6 new records set:

Matt Gardiner   M Open 14:11.87                                                                                                    Lily Ensign F JR 18:45.99                                                                                                             Heather Poskevich W EM 18:44.27                                                                                                     Deanne Herr W 4/5  18:27.26                                                                                                                Brooks Glassnap Recumbent 14:19.69                                                                                              Greg Grandgeorge M Fat Bike 19:17.40

For me this series was the gateway to a greater community.  As you think about the past season and begin to make plans for the next I encourage you to bring a friend.  Race the clock and see how each of you measure up.  Along with that, check out the local crit races and dive in.  The bike racing community has so much to offer. Once you go full gas, you won’t want to look back and you’ll wonder why didn’t I find this sport years ago.

I have a few takeaways and tweaks already for next season, be on the lookout for updates after the new year. Results are attached.

Elkhart Time Trial May 2019 Edition

A big thank you to all that came to play bikes and challenge themselves to improve from last month.  Weather proved to be a bit more agreeable though the warmth still evaded us.  Times across the board were significantly lower.  William Schupp took top honors on the night riding to a 16:56.42 the only one to break into the 16 minute barrier.  Jennifer Borst took top honors for the women’s field at 18:56.10.  It was noted that women now compromise 25% of the field, well done ladies.  I know warmer weather is just around the corner. See you next month. Results:

Elkhart Time Trial April 2019 Edition

Well the opening to the season was a dandy!  Congrats to the hardened racers that came to Elkhart on Thursday.  We had a great turnout of riders that braved the April weather conditions.  Gale force winds out of the south at 30mph+ and a drop in temps left many riders a bit dismayed and in hopes that their effort would warm them. In all only 5 riders would break the sub 20 minute mark, with Scott Wall taking the overall victory.  This was definitely not a record breaking night but the race to the finish after the turn around Strava point was in danger for sure! Thank you all for coming out.

Elkhart TT #4 p/b Tompkins Industries

Thanks to all who braved the heat for our fourth Elkhart Time Trial of the 2018. We had a heat index in the triple digits with light winds, which made for a beastly hot and slower  than average ride for many.  Results link below, email corrections to sixcoopers@gmail.com.
