Let the racing begin!

Here it is.  Team Excelerator will begin our racing season this weekend up at the Tax Day Circuit Race in Idaho.  Jerald Olsen, Trent Olsen and Darren Goff will represent.  These are some of our strongest riders.  We wish them luck!  April 24th will see the whole team contest the East Canyon Road Race.  We'll have Ben Towery and Kevan Steed out on their new Mercury Bikes.  We'll welcome some of our new to racing members as well.  We'll be missing one key rider though, Aaron Thomas injured himself at the Master's Skiing Nationals in Sun Valley last week.  He clipped a gate in the slalom.  He still managed to tale 5th in the super G, but will be nursing the injury for a few more weeks.  Lets hope he heals well! 

There's been a lot of excitement for TE's 3rd season and we can't wait to get rolling!  We are also anticipating a good turnout for the first race hosted by TE this year, the 2nd Annual Powder Mountain Hillclimb benefiting the Ovarian Cancer Foundation.  Look for that to happen on June 12th!
