Victory has a sweet flavor. The sweetness is made even more acute when victory comes from solid teamwork.

Frederick the Great of Prussia has been quoted as saying “l’audace, l’audace, toujours l’audace” which translates to “boldness, boldness, in all things boldness.” As hoped, neh, believed, one of District Velocity Racing’s newest additions Patrick Jarenwattananon a/k/a/ PJ, soundly accepted that mantra and with boldness befitting Frederick himself, took the win this past weekend in [...]
Bike Doctor’s Black Hills Circuit Race has marked the beginning of MABRA’s race calendar for the last couple of years.
