Dillon Nobbs 3rd at National's

Five months. That's how long young Dillon Nobbs has been in the sport of triathlon. Coming from a swimming backround, a new and naturally fast runner (High School Varsity this freshman year) just placed 3rd @ USAT Junior Nationals. 45 seconds from 1st. And his cycling training has been minimal. His swim and run carried him. When X-country is over, cycling becomes a priority. And when that talent matches the other two, that cake mix is going to win lots of races.

Training fun!!!

We have not competed in 3 or 4 week's, but our quality load of training exists non the same. Some epic rides right here in our back yard lately. Here is a shot of Jodi about to launch a little taken by none other than the best: Terry Martin. We have clinics coming up. Stay tuned. And get fast. And have some serious fun at it.

Los Angeles Triathlon race #3

Yes, racing is fun. Really fun when you get out of the water top 20, come off the bike in 3rd place and run down the 2 in front of you for the overall win. Even funner when the two in front of you are half your age. Yes, the young one's got schooled by the old boy this day. 25 years of racing and still having as much, if not more.....fun. Thanks for the fun guys. That's Corey in the green shirt, our Title Sponsor. It would have been nice had he said something like: Go Dave. Or keep it up Dave.. you're 3 minutes back Dave....you look old Dave. Or even : "Boo" But nothing. Oh well, guess I didn't need it this day anyway! :)

Olympic distance

Jodi put together a solid swim, fast bike, and swift run to win her division last Sunday in the longer race. She may not be as aero as she could on this road bike, but none the less hammered the course. All the while........having fun!!!

Things happen

When you train and race smart, things happen. First and foremost you should be having a fun time. Do it right and you should improve. Dillon is having fun and improving. His first race, 8th overall. This past Sunday's race, 4th overall. One day he will have thee overall. He has not ridden this Giant Trinity yet. But he will. And he will be faster. And probably having more fun at it. A good combination.

Reinhold

That's Reinhold Geist at our triathlon clinic last month. He just raced last Sunday on the same course clinic had covered. I guess it paid off. He won his division. Nice goin' Rein!

Corey is the Man

Whether it be pre race, post race, or at the race, Corey from Coates Cyclery will hook you up. On top of knowing everything there is about the business, as I said he will hook you up. With the right equipment and the correct advise. Thanks Corey!
