Many thanks to all who participated in this abbreviated season's races! We missed out on a few of the classics, but still managed to get in most of our races. Saturday's race at South Bend was a superb cap to the season. With temps in the 70's and modest conditions all around, we really couldn't … Continue reading South Bend Race, 9.26.2020
