Giving Back

 Volunteers build trails through Roanoke Park

Jessie and G gave back a bit of time along side Shoff and crew to help open up phase 3 of Roanoke Park.  Brett and his crew of builders have been hard at it and in due time Roanoke will be a sweet little gem to hit up when riding around town. Right now there are three sections open with more to come in the future.  41 Action News was on hand to show a little love...

The Dirty Kanza 200+ miles of gravel showdown was attended by a handful of the Ethos Posse. Here we have Dave and Jesse in the trail of riders doing what they do best in one gear. Mark pulled off a good race and landed in the top 15 Open. Hopefully we will get a race report out of someone in the near future, Timbo?

OMBA Carumba



O-M(y) B(roken) A(rse), those trails have some chatter to them. Sunday it happened and unfortunately there was only a small Ethos showing. Fortunately  the peeps who did show face had a great time and showed our southern brethren how to ride some bikes. Bikes on dirt and rock that is. The Brocket clan and Steve-O packed up and headed down early in the fine yet cold spring weather to meet the lone Springfield Ethos rider Mia P. (as in pee on everyone elses Marathon Race Parade).

As mentioned above Mia took the win in the womens marathon, no doubt in preparation for the upcoming Syllamo. Steve took 3rd in the CAT2 50+ and also beat all the 40+. B&K Rocket, or as I like to call them Beanpole 1 & 2 each took the overall CAT 1 win for men and women. JP duked it out with local stud Cale McAninch. Don't give Cale an Inch in a race, he'll take a foot then some. JP did give him quite a  bit more than a foot but managed to save some Rocket fuel for a scorching last lap, his race report is here.

Nice work Ladies and Gentlemen!

JP standing taller!

K-Rocket-All smiles!

Gravel Gravy

Saturday almost the entire ethos crew gathered at Kevin's house for a glorious day of cruising the country roads south east of KC.
JP, K-Rocket, Kevin, TDonn, Jamie, The Bald Chimp, Steve, Sarah and myself were suited up in ethos kits. Drew and Justin B of Elite/Maple cycling joined the crew. With a 9:30 rollout we were greeted with perfect gravel grinding weather, 40's and sunny. The wind out of the NE pushed us along for the first 30 miles. The country scenery mixed with good company and fun conversations had everyone smiling. The country dogs were numerous, with the highlight being the Irish Wolfhound farm.

The route back north had a slight head wind bringing us to Kingsville, MO home of the Conoco clown. Some Coke and Candy bars were downed and spun out on the final leg. After a total of 65 miles the group reached the Godfathers house. It was great to have an actual Ethos "groupride." Hopefully next time Sean, Mark, Andrew, Jason and Mia will be able to make it. They could have been hiding in the buffalo for all I know! I guess Garet can come also.
