WINTER THERMAL 

VEST AND JACKET AND KNEE WARMERS

order

On Monday, November 11th the Fat Fish will be making a cold weather gear order.  We will only be ordering three items.  Thermal Jackets, Thermal Vests and Knee Warmers.  Jackets are $90, Vests are $46 and Knee warmers are $25.  The tops are fleece lined, wind proof and semi waterproof.  The knee warmers are nothing fancy, just another layer over the skin really.  See below photo of the two gentlemen on the right.  John and Clint are both wearing the long sleeved team gear.  The arms say "Casper" on one arm and "Wyoming" on the other arm.  All of the 2013 sponsors are included!!

Email your size and "cut" that you desire.  Race cut is tight, Sport cut has a little more space in the gut and Club cut is bigger all around.  Since I want to have the option of another layer underneath, I am ordering an XL Club Cut Thermal Jersey (Adam).   Email the Fish at fatfishracing@gmail.com

Spooky Cross was a big hit!!  Our largest turnout of racers yet at a cyclocross race in Casper.  There were a lot of people who came out to watch too.  I think they were wishing they had their bikes with them.  It was a close race in all the categories.

Lori almost had a come from behind win after a flat, but Cliff was able to maintain a solid rhythm and hold on to the win in the C class.
It was Justin in the B class that hammered his single speed to victory ahead of a strong Lance, Jeramiah and Clint.  The B field was huge with lots of talent.  Airica won it for the ladies with Melissa and Andrea not far behind.  Big shout out to the rest of the ladies who raced really hard.  That was a big ladies field!!
In the A class, some classy dudes from Sheridan and Gillette represented their cities well with a couple top finishes.  Adam took the win by a measly 6 seconds ahead of Dave from Sheridan.  The blazing fast 16 year old, Eric, nabbed 3rd place from Paul in the final couple laps.  Erik, on his 5 inch travel mountain bike, took 5th and was the fastest guy not on a cyclocross bike that day.

Way to go racers!!  Next race will be the season finale for the CX series.  It will be at Washington Park.

Spooky Cross perfect weather and more

This weekend is going to be amazing for Cyclocross!!  With temps in the low 60's and nearly zero wind, the course is going to be fun and fast.  Look for a preview video late wednesday night on vimeo.com.  Just search for Adam Leiferman and you'll see some video's there.  Prizes for random drawn winners are rolling in.  The Reef Fly Shop donated dozens of amazing streamers that are rocking the brown trout on the North Platte River right now as well as some other sweet shwagg.   Gear Up donated some amazing fitness clothing and accessories and I just know that we will be getting more as the day gets closer.   Expect a lot more racers this time around as the weather is going to be perfect.  We've never had a race that hasn't been in snow, so I think the "fair weather" racers will be out to give CX a try.  Good Luck!!

A safer city to ride

We need cyclists at the City Council work session 10/22, 4:30pm, Casper City Hall, 200 North David Street.
Our voices are needed to balance against the folks that don't ride bike who think that the streets are safe already.  We all know that the streets are not safe enough!

We need letters written to City Council members.  Here is where you can find your city council person and their contact info:

You can learn about the plan and get contact info to make comments to the City of Casper Projects Planning Analyst, Dave Hough here also:
