We’re going to celebrate it with a party here in a few weeks – details on that to come.

We’ve had a good 2011-2012 season and would like to thank all of our racers for coming out and supporting us. As well, we couldn’t do what we do without the support of our sponsors, so please give them some attention and support through the year. The Peddler Bike Shop, f3 designs, Tom Mahnke Realty, Austin on Two Wheels, Grease Monkey Wipes and Rising Phoenix Adventures are all good friends of ours and we’ve been grateful for their support over this past year.

We will be back with more MTB and cyclocross racing in the fall on the new course they’re working on and we’re extremely excited for starting that up. In the meantime, we recommend getting your racing fix with Dirt Remedy on Tuesday for you MTB’rs and The Driveway on Thursdays for the roadies.

We look forward to seeing y’all in the fall.

The winds were eating into the legs of the racers, but it was a good night, with some folks from Strava getting info on the course, a reporter from The Daily Texan writing an article and the usual gaggle of racers and spectators enjoying themselves. We’re hoping the weather can be friendly and that we’ll be able to see everyone out next week as we continue our spring series of The Peddler Dirt Derby.

We’re looking good for our second week of our spring series of The Peddler Dirt Derby. After some delays due to course work and weather we had a good start to the spring last week and we’re keeping it going this week. So grab your bike and join us for a fun evening of mountain bike and cyclocross racing under the lights out in Del Valle.

In other exciting news, I just read over on Austin on Two Wheels that Austin will be hosting Cyclocross Nationals in 2015! That should be a lot of fun when the time comes – in the meantime check out The Peddler Dirt Derby for keeping your ‘cross skills sharp in the spring, and keep reading Austin on Two Wheels for latest on Austin cycling news and culture.

It was a lovely night for racing and we were happy to get things underway in spite of all the delays.

We raced on the site of the old course, which is a bit flatter than most people will remember. They had to move the motocross course to the other side of the parking lot but they haven’t yet moved the lights, so once they move the lights we’ll be able to race on the new course they’ve set up. In the meantime, we’re working with what is still a challenging course and still offers good races for all classes.

Results have been posted from this past Tuesday evening. We hope to see everyone out next Tuesday, March 6th for some more MTB and cyclocross action.

If your bike has gotten a bit dirty between now and the last time we raced, clean it up with some Grease Monkey Wipes. If you’ve gotten a bit dirty between now and the last time we raced then take a shower. Seriously. And then come out and get dirty with us again this Tuesday at…
