'"ALBERT" ,ALBERT", 'ALBERT!.


Niels Albert , took a great victory today on Holland . After Zdenek Stybar loose his grip in a really muddy corner ,the Belgian just put the hammer down ,and Stybar could not recover and end up taking 2nd place ,the race was really good with a technical course ,wet ,and full of power houses . to all of us surprise Jonathan Page took 8th , which is great . The rest of the Americans did not do so well . with Johnson in 32nd , and his team mates in 40th and 51st ,mean while Trebon did not finish the race , well hopefully they do a better job in the world cup next weekend .

COLORADO SNOWSHOE STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS




Today we went all the way up to Tennessee Pass Nordic Center.To race the Colorado champs , i my self took first place in the 5k course , it was by far the hardest course ever ( Bruce K ) style , so my time was 47:26 official . But the real race was the 10 k ,because it came to a sprint finish by old timer Bernie Boettcher and new blood Logan Wealing , Logan took first by a hair ,in third place 3 seconds behind my boy John Tribbia , it was the race of a life time ! ,hard , long ,and with a lots to climb .
Now i have to focus in the next race Feb ,7 .2010 , i hope to see more people in the 5 k

SRAM MAY GET THE FIRST WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP


Sram may get their first world championship tittle , if the Czech rider Svanek Styber , wins the worlds the American parts manufacture may see glory in the world , wish is a win for all Americans , with Sram being one of the companies with more pro sponsorship i think that is time for them to get their hands in a medal in cross, so my best for Stybar and let's go America.

Niels Albert may be out of Roubaix world cup




World champ Niels Abert may not race the world cup that will be held on Roubaix, France.Albert fractured a rib on the Belgian nat's championship , where he was knock down by a drunk spectator .Albert said that the Roubaix comes to soon for him, and the chances for him racing are 50 % , in the case so he would just do it for his world ranking , training has been hard for him but in the climbs the pain is just too much,with a 20 points lead over Svanek Stybar ,and 80 over Nys , he may loose his first place to Stybar if he wins Roubaix he gets 80 points so Albert will monitor his pain and just time will say the last word.

ASTANA


Well looks like the new ASTANA team comes with a new bike sponsor oh should i say the old sponsor Specialized , well i think that is a good change , but knowing the huge ego that the speci boys have, if they win the tour o man all the bike magazines will have so much specialized promotions , that i may fell like buying one hahah. so i hope that alberto kicks lance on the nuts but specialized maybe not but what can i do? .
