Race Report: Church Creek 3/4 TTT

We took the win AND second place. ‘Nuff said.

Race Report: Dawg Days of Summer

After many months of training, racing and recovering — a process that was rinsed and repeated many times — the season came to something of an end this weekend with the Dawg Days of Summer Circuit Race in Bowie, MD. But unlike many other late-season races, this one was special in its own way — [...]

Race Report: We Are The Champions

It was a great weekend for District Velocity Racing p/b The Bike Rack, if only because we claimed an important title during the punishing Page Valley Road Race — Cat 4 MABRA Road Race Champions. Yep, champions. Corey took second place in the race, but given that the first place finisher was on a non-MABRA [...]

The Droppage at Lost River

So Linc Brookes went ahead and posted a whole bunch of pictures from the Lost River Classic, and what I had hoped was a moment left best forgotten on the roads of West Virginia has instead been immortalized for all to see. Yep, I got dropped. And badly. Grayson has a good excuse — this [...]

Race Report: Lost River Classic

District Velocity Racing p/b The Bike Rack sent a large group into the wilds of West Virginia for one of the hardest, if hotly anticipated road races of the year — the Lost River Classic. While we quietly scoffed last year at the designation of “classic” — how can an inaugural race be a classic? [...]

Race Report: Giro di Coppi

After a few very critty weeks (not to mention a number of crashes), we’re back to what we love best: road races. And whether or not this was done on purpose, it’s great that three of area’s best road races — Giro di Coppi, Lost River Classic, and Page Valley — all take place within [...]

Race Report: Tour of Washington County

Since I’m still recovering from the thorough baking I suffered in the weekend weather, I’ll keep the race report short and sweet. And bullet-pointed. Everyone loves the bullet points. In the Cat 4 race, Corey took ninth and Tom S. 10th on GC. Nicely done, men. In the Cat 3 race, Sam claimed ninth on [...]

Race Report: Air Force Cycling Classic

Sam took second place in the 3/4 race in Crystal City on Sunday, proving that his training regimen of tail-gunning through early-season races pays huge dividends when it truly matters. Next up, Capital Crit?

Race Report: Church Creek and Ride Sally Ride

Church Creek TT: Kevin, Marcus, Dennis, Tom J., and Tom S. braved Bay Bridge traffic and the prospect of a wind-swept, pancake-flat course and headed down to the Church Creek Time Trial on Saturday. Tom S. and Kevin both did their respective ITTs (Tom as a Cat 4, Kevin as a Cat 3), and then [...]

Race Report: Leonardtown and Fawn Grove

Beyond our succesful day at Poolesville, on Sunday a few members of District Velocity Racing p/b The Bike Rack tested their (tired) legs at either the Leonardtown Crit or the Fawn Grove Roubaix in Pennsylvania. Michelle, Jonathan, Tony and I travelled south to Leonardtown. Michelle jumped in the Cat 4 Women’s Race, which was dominated [...]
