Quick Fill #43: This Week in GNCCNovember 5, 2015This week’s edition of Quick Fill, for me at least, comes to you all the way from Japan. I made the trek over for the final round of the Japan National Cross Country season and we have a number of familiar faces who also made the trip.
Quick Fill #42: This Week in GNCCOctober 29, 2015This week’s edition of Quick Fill is brought to you live from the Ironman GNCC in Crawfordsville, Indiana. The course is shaping up and the facility is looking to be in top-notch shape for this weekend’s finale of the 2015 GNCC Racing season. There’s no doubt that the Ironman is a perfect location for a season finale. It stands out to many racers as their favorite event of the year, and who couldn’t love it? With a course that ranges from fast field sections, to flowing trails, tight trails, and some of the most epic hillclimbs all season, the Ironman truly offers up something for everyone.
Quick Fill #41: This Week in GNCCOctober 22, 2015Another weekend of racing is finished, and we’re now pushing forward to the grand finale with the Ironman GNCC in Crawfordsville, Indiana next weekend. Powerline Park always serves as an excellent penultimate round, and there’s no better place for a season finale than the Ironman. Both of these races have become popular stops for racers and spectators alike, so it’s an excellent way to cap off an amazing season.
Quick Fill #40: This Week in GNCCOctober 15, 2015Another week has flown by and we’re now once again preparing ourselves to go GNCC Racing. This time we head to Powerline Park, which is home to some infamous mudholes, and a history of some great racing. With the ATV National Championship still up for grabs, and a number of bike riders looking for a win before the end of the season, we undoubtedly could be treated to another epic Powerline Park event.
Quick Fill #39: This Week in GNCCOctober 8, 2015Another round of GNCC Racing has come, gone and we’re already looking ahead to the next one. I’m sure everyone will agree that Mountain Ridge was cold, windy and a little on the wet side. However, we didn’t receive anywhere even close to the amount of rain that people believed would be coming. In fact, I had quite a few people text, email, Facebook message, etc asking about weather and it really seemed like nobody wanted to believe me when I said “It’s hardly rained at all here!”
Quick Fill #38: This Week in GNCCOctober 1, 2015This week’s edition of Quick Fill comes to you from Mountain Ridge where the windmills are spinning and the crew is grinning because it’s time to go racing again. Now, there’s been numerous calls and emails asking if the race is still on. Of course it’s still on! The windmills at Mountain Ridge must also help to blow all the bad weather away because what rain the track has gotten hasn’t hurt anything, and it can take even more.
Quick Fill #37: This Week in GNCCSeptember 24, 2015Well, the summer break is now officially over and once again the Parts Unlimited Unadilla GNCC did not disappoint! With a whopping total of 2,220 racers competing throughout the weekend, Unadilla was once again a great way to return from summer break. It also seems like most racers really enjoyed this year’s Unadilla course as well. I heard more than a few racers say that it was one of the best Unadilla tracks they’ve ever ridden, so hopefully next year is even better!
Quick Fill #36: This Week in GNCCSeptember 17, 2015Well folks, it’s finally here. The summer break is coming to an end and this weekend we’ll be returning to racing with the Parts Unlimited Unadilla GNCC in New Berlin, New York. For some it may seem like the summer break has drug on forever, for others it may have zipped by. No matter what, it’s coming to an end and we’ll be seeing that final championship push through the final four rounds. While everyone is super excited to get back to racing, it’s also a little bittersweet as it also means that the season will be winding down before we know it. On the bright side, there’s a lot of racing to be done between now and then!
