The 2005 Psycowpath Mountain Bike Series presented by the Nebraska Lottery kicks off Saturday, April 30, 2005 with the “River City Shootout” in Bellevue, NE. The six race series will feature over $5000 in cash and merchandise prizes with a portion of proceeds going to the Nebraska trail advocacy group, “THOR” (Trails Have Our Respect). The “River City Shootout” serves as the curtain-raiser for the 2005 series, featuring one of the most popular race courses on the Psycowpath circuit, Swanson Park in Bellevue. This “flat” course was built a few years ago with cyclists and equestrians in mind, providing a perfect environment for novice and seasoned off-road riders. The 4.5 mile loop offers a fast, flowing course of mostly single track with minor technical sections. Over $500 in cash and merchandise prizes will be awarded with races begin at 10:00am for the “Beginner” class events and concluding with the “Expert’ categories at 1:00pm. Complete information regarding the Psycowpath MTB Series presented by the Nebraska Lottery is available online by visiting www.nebraskacycling.org. For other questions, please contact John M. Lefler, Jr. at 402-499-2065. |

Featured Stories
Kent McNeill along with a few others have been busy the last month and a half. France last month and Leadville 100 this month. Kent was kind enough to regale us with his account of their adventures.
2008 E’tape Du Tour
This year was supposed to be easier. I suppose in terms of mileage and total elevation gain, it was. Our route from Pau over the Tourmalet and then to the top of Hautacam was 108 miles with 11,600 feet of climbing. The past couple of years our routes have been from 125-150 miles with 13,000 to 14,000 feet of climbing and we have ridden in extreme heat conditions. This swung us to the other end of the spectrum. Hypothermia!

"Your from Nebraska?" the gal at medical check in asked. "Yes" Steve replied. "So you’re taking the high altitude medication Diamox then?" she asked. "No" Steve replied, having never heard of it. "Oh Boy!" she said with a tone of amazement and worry. "Good Luck!"
