SC Velo is pleased to announce that Jon "Woody" Nelson has returned to our Powerade/I.F. racing team. He'll be sporting our kit in Iowa City this weekend.

Jon is a previous Iowa State Champion and a respected and popular racer in the tri-state area dating back to his days as a Junior in the early 1980's. He is perhaps equally well known locally as a mechanic and sales person at Albrecht Cycle for well over 25 years. He and wife Jodi and their children live in the Sioux City metro area.

Bumgarner 2nd Consecutive Twin Bing Win

Slated as a Cat 1/2 race, Cat 3 riders were allowed to join this group if they wanted to after the officials decided to reduce three fields to two fields. The 27 starters then set off for their 3-lap race.

Twin Bing Combined Field Recap

Written by: Admin

Mostly cloudy skies and a steady wind of 20 mph were the order of the day for the 5th Annual Twin Bing Classic Road Race.

Promoted as seperate races, the Cat 3/Masters 40+ field and the Cat 4/5/Women Open/Juniors field were combined on the judgement of the officials at call up. Although the fields were combined, the scoring and payouts would remain seperate.

SC Velo Thanks You

Team Powerade/Independent Fabrication would like to thank everyone who came out to race with us on Sunday. In addition to racers from the tri-state area plates from Minnesota, Texas and Colorado were spotted. There may have been other states represented I'm not aware of.

TBC Results- Notes

Team affiliations were not provided to me this year. I know who a good many of you ride for but not all. I didn't have time to search out everyone on USAC. So to be fair, I didn't list any teams.

If your name was spelled incorrectly let me know and I'll be happy to correct it. Most DNF riders reported to the officials. Some did not so it was assumed they withdrew. If you were listed as DNF but actually did finish, then you missed being recorded when you crossed the finish line. If you were listed as DNF but finished, let me know and I'll try to slot you in.

Twin Bing Classic Update

Written by: Admin- 4/13/13, 8 PM

The county patched a few minor holes for us and the course has been swept and it's marked. It's all right turns. As a reminder, do not ride past the corner from Old 141 to Bronson and do not ride into Bronson either- turn right at the stop sign and head south. You are responsible for knowing the course. So know the course.
