I just got word from Jeremy, he is at the 24 Hours of Snowshoe, where the 5th stop of the North American Trials Series was held. This is the North American Championship for trials. Jeremy was leading the series and only needed to place in the top 4 to win the series. Jeremy won the comp and the series. Jeremy is having a blast this year and has been riding better than ever. He has already made the US World Team and is looking forward to the World Championships, this will be his fourth year in a row. He has not lost to a single person from Canada or the US all year and can hardly believe how well he has been doing. He has cut his training in half and it really has helped. Much more intense with many more days for recovery. The next month he has booked a bunch of demos to help him make it to the National Championships and the World Championships. As you know mountain biking is currently paying their pros about as well as race promoters get paid. It should be interesting to see how many Oregon riders are on the US World Team this year. Once again OBRA is shinning and the efforts being put in right now will show results for years to come. Jeremy is going to be doing a few demos in the Portland area in July and hopes to see some of you then. He will be at the end of the STP ride and at the Alpenrose Velodrome Challenge. The Alpenrose Velodrome Challenge is one of his favorite events to do, I hope you come out and watch the racing, it is a great experience. It is hard to believe we have an event like this right here in Oregon!!! Jim VanSchoonhoven |
