2013 UCI CX World Cup - Louisville, KY

On February 2, 2013, Nate and Andy traveled to Louisville Kentucky to witness the historical cyclocross world cup race.  Since they don't make a class slow enough for us, we enjoyed the day spectating and shooting photos.  Andy shot over 1000 photos and managed to take a mud bath with his camera gear (I told him he was too close), and I (Nate) shot about 600 pictures.

Here are a couple selects:

UCC 2012

An interview with Michelle Charameda, organizer of the UCC held every year since 2006 in West Michigan.

The event is a 12 and 24 hour stationary cycle Livestrong fundraiser. Teams ride in a relay format and are entertained throughout the day by local bands, music, videos and special instructors.

Michelle, and her husband Tony, have created an amazing event that attracted over 500 riders and raised over $62,000 for Livestrong and the fight against cancer in 2012. In 2011, they were Livestrong's #1 Grassroots fundraiser in the country.

This year the MTB-Life Racing team participated as the "Fuzzy Love Eggs presented by Soul Cycles" and helped raise over $2000 for the event.

Why wait for the summer?

The other day my neighbor talked me into braving the cold and getting on the bike. I pulled out the GoPro and recorded the beautiful day and fun ride at Rolling Hills park in Ypsilanti.
