Fall: When the Races Fly South...


Well, we're really getting into the new season now. Every week, there are fewer and fewer races on the schedule. Still enough to choose from, but pretty soon, pickings will be slim. But hey, it's the off-season. Time to get into the off-season training mode. Hit the pool. Reacquaint yourself with the treadmill. Find one of those new stationary bikes at Dixon that has a cable TV built right into the bike (but no rack for holding a book or magazine - there's just something wrong with that scenario).

Embrace the leaves, wind and rain. While you can...Winter will be here sooner than you think.

Let's race!
