Over the Hump - Week 1

Tuesday night was the start of Over The Hump, a 12-week mountain bike series at Irvine Lake. The course consists of a 3.75 loop around Irvine Lake and, depending on the category you signed up for, you ride 2, 3, or 4 loops. Our multi-sport group, Team Poseidon, was well-represented.




Although we had raced in a few of these races last summer, the course had changed due to the water level being so high. They had to build a floating bridge to get riders to the other side of the course.








Although I still have the hacking cough I've had for weeks, I felt great during the race and even managed to claim third place in the women's 2-loop group. Since it is a race series, they keep track of everyone's results and will award overall places at the end of the summer. Skyler and I plan on racing every week.
