Spring Break Training Trip

"Where are you going for spring break? Mexico?
That's cool...I guess."

The University of Minnesota team is heading down to Fayetteville, Arkansas for our second year in a row to spend our spring break riding and racing, in preparation for the NCCCC road calendar, which begins in Kansas two weeks after we get back.

The first van goes down tomorrow and the rest of the springbreakers will join us on Saturday night. First order of business is the Hell's Kitchen Road Race, a great event which we first competed in last year and are very much looking forward to.

After racing on the first Sunday and hopefully getting our outside legs back, we'll do mostly base riding. We'll have at least one day where we just get a lot of climbing in, and like always we'll do some handling/technique work. And oh, the MTBer's will get their rides too.

So today it was ~50 degrees outside, we're leaving for spring break, and we've got a sweet season of racing ahead. If you're not excited now, I don't know what your problem is.
