Washougal Cyclocross has come and gone and for all of you who attended, thank you! And for all those who weren’t able to make it, we hope to see you next year!
The day was beautiful- the weather, the venue, the people…good times. We had a handful of photographers onsite and I’ll be getting photos to all registered racers in the coming days.
For those who like to nerd out as much as I do on individual lap times, I want to express my appreciation to Staci and Blair Bronson at e8Timing for making the trek up to Washougal, WA. They also brought a couple familiar faces in Seth and Maria Patla. A true dream team. Oh, and one of my favorite pups, Ranger!
This race would not have been possible without the backing of our supportive sponsors: Biciclista, Tangent Coffee Roasters, Ratio, 10 Barrel Brewing Co, HiFi Sound Cycling Components, Washougal MX Park, and the Dialed Cycling Lab. From bringing us hot coffee, to cold beer, to plenty of podium prizes, you helped take our event to the next level.
I cannot thank Jake von Duering and the Dialed Cycling Lab team enough. They made up almost the entirety of my race day volunteer crew. From 6:30am to 6:30pm I had multiple hands ready to get after it. To have this kind of backing gets me so excited thinking of next year and beyond. Let the collaboration continue!
My OBRA crew was awesome. They made every aspect of playing the role of promoter enjoyable. Thank you to Dave Roth, Terri Camp, Jon Ragsdale, and Will Hahn.
And lastly, to my crew of friends and family: Brian Cimmiyotti, Phillip Trost, Stuart Fisher-Spurlock, Istvan Takacs, Anj Stadnik, Ben Taber, Ryan Huffman, Stefano Spedini, and my much better half Nikki Maeda.
Now I can focus on training and racing the Cyclocross Crusade series!
Kindly,
Scott Scholz
