More Time Trialing

Amy and Jim represented TRC one last time for 2008 at the Speedway Charities Time Trial Championship at Lowes Motor Speedway in Concord, NC on Sunday, November 9. Instead of the normal 10 mile distance that their summer series races, this event covered 13 miles over 9 laps.

Amy continued to have good results at LMS, placing first in her age group with a time of 39 minutes and change. She raced on a Cannondale modified into a ghetto TT ride with considerable input from Chris at TRC.

Alas, Jim finished dead last in the fixie division with a time of around 37 minutes. He did add some speed gear to his TRC Soma, but to no avail. However, he did improve on his average speed from the previous race in October.

The newly fixed TRC Redline Monocog made an appearance at the race on its way to a dirt session at Hobby Park the next day. Maybe Jim should have raced it instead.


And then there were four... in an effort to continue her quest for world TT domination, Amy scored a Jamis Trilogy TT frame kitted out with Dura-Ace components from a season-end sale by the Toshiba cycling team. It will be taken by Chris's shop next week for a TRC mojo infusion.
