Omaha, NE - If you ever wanted the same instruction that has driven riders like Lance Armstrong, Alison Dunlap and Roland Green to the top, you are in luck.

Nebraska Cycling Association board member and past CTS Training Camp participant, Nancy Stirek is coordinating with Carmichael Training Systems to bring this training opportunity to Omaha, June 27, 28 and 29. This three day camp is designed for riders of all abilities and levels of cycling.

"It’s a wonderful opportunity for us, but it takes everyone’s participation to bring this to fruition," says Stirek, who estimates 12-15 riders will need to sign-on for the camp to secure the date with Carmichael Training System.

The three days will cover a range of topics including climbing, cornering, descending, pacelines and nutrition. The camp will be led by an expreienced group of cyclists, including:

Justin Peschka            12-time Arizona State Champion, road cyclingJay Guyot

            Multi-State Champion in Master’s Road, MTB, and Track events

Jason Tullous

            Master’s 30-34 World MTB Champion

 

The camp, rides and instruction is interactive and fully-supported by the CTS Staff.  Space is limited, so if you are interested, please contact Nancy Stirek before May 10 to reserve your spot and/or learn more about the camp, cost, etc.

Sea Otter: Behind the Mic, Part II Print E-mail

Once I arrived at Sea Otter on Thursday afternoon, I was immediately put to work by Head Race Announcer, Richard Fries. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, it was time for Race Announcer "bootcamp"...start list, check...microphone on and hopefully not infested, check...laps to go, time-in, who is in the break, dude, here comes the field, CHECK! And like that, I was calling the Men's Category 1/2 circuit race. Don't ask me to give you names because I really cannot remember. But for the remainder of my four days at the Sea Otter Classic, it was myself and the others communicating a bundle of information including race schedules, awards presentations, sponsor news and information and yeah, we called races, too.

2008 Sea Otter: Behind the Mic, Part I Print E-mail

Monterey, CA - After four days, every type of weather condition you can imagine and even a sad and unfortunate death, I am back from the 2008 Sea Otter. This year marked the 18th edition of this early season cycling festival dubbed "A Celebration of Sport." There is truly nothing like it anywhere. One of the most famous race tracks in the world, Laguna Seca is transformed into a veritable cycling village for four days with every discipline of our sport represented to the fullest.

I was among a group of seven that were asked to take part in this race annuncer bootcamp. And trust me, it felt like work all weekend. Albeit a labor of love.
