... for the start of the North Carolina series.

I'll likely miss the first race due to it occurring 1 week after my honeymoon, but I'm in for the rest.

Excited because I did well in my first season last year- won two races and took 2nd overall in the Winter series. Nervous because, well, now I'm a Cat 2 :) Time to step it up a bit.

Pic is from my first race in Salisbury, NC. I'm the guy chasing (pink bar tape). Seemed to be a theme for that race :)

Any other NC racers here?

Yep, you know me. I haven't decided what of the NC series to do this year- may go for the closer ones/courses I like rather than the whole series. See you out there at some point!

Cool. See y'all there.

I might actually race the MTB (Fisher Superfly carbon 29er) with a rigid carbon fork on the more techy/muddy courses- it's the same weight as my CX bike, but with disc brakes, flat bars, 45mm tires, etc.
