| Thanks for a Great Season! - |
Road racing season was a huge success! We had great participation and performances. A team from CMU was present at almost every race, even including races in Boston, Poughkeepsie, and Westpoint (>8 hour drives away!). Thanks for everyone that came out to represent CMU and here's to an even better year next year!

| We're not dead...- Tuesday, September 19th , 2006 |
... we've just been really busy racing!
Last week we hit up UConn and MIT for a mountain bike race. The week before that we were in Penn State for the mountain bike racing season opener. In 2 race weekends, we've earned an impressive 9 podium finishes, with even more top 10 finishes.
Don't worry though. We don't just race. When the season is over (weekend of Oct 14th), we'll be holding bike wrenching clinics and small skill sessions!
Finally, our Ride Coordinator, Evan (who is finally back from Korea), will be leading MANY rides for you people that are back while the rest of the officers are getting muddy in the ECCC mountain bike races. Stay tuned and keep checking the b-board!

New Look! - Monday, August 28th, 2006 |
I'm not a designer, and its obvious. The old one was above and beyond my HTML skills and I didn't know how to update/expand it. None of the links work yet, but all the information you need to know for now is on this page. Please... if one of you HTML gurus can tell me WHY THE CRAP the date boxes on this entry, and the last one are larger than normal, I would greatly appreciate it. :)
