Fontucky Race Report

With Randy and I out for various reasons, we had to let Taylor and Vanessa hold it down this past weekend in Fontana. Ahhh Fontana, where the town motto is "hey, I can see the 60 freeway from here!" Saturday was XC race day for Expert bad-ass Vanessa Humic. All alone in her category (I can't blame them, would YOU wanna race her?) Vanessa was both first and dead last at the same time. She finally had a race free of mechanicals. That is TALENT bitches! Saturday was Taylor's day to practice his mad DH skills. Randy's wife and Backbone team chef was there representin' the toy hauler for the weekend, as Randy's nephew came to also race dh.
Saturday was a MUD FEST on the dh course. Taylor decided that he would be conservative and NOT throw his season away before it started. That was a great plan, as he drew himself three seconds closer to the first place finisher, and finished inside the top ten for the second week in a row. Great job!
Backbone Alum Chrissy Bono (Trek Regional) came out to race as the only Pro woman, and Kenda homie James "The Sister Crippler" Schwanke took third in the pro 4 cross, beaten only by the two World Champs that showed up (Kenda Alum Eric Carter).
Next race we should ahve a decent turnout, with rock stars like Randy, Vanessa, Vegas Bob (debuting his new legs), Taylor and Jay. Hell, i may even show up again and stretch the boundaries of LYCRA and good taste!
