Nankman Adventures in Cycling: 2013 In Review

2013 In Review

2013 was a good year, many goals were accomplished and personal records (PR) set. Some of the major highlights included:

Both of us competing in our first ever 12 hour race (and Jess winning it)
Each of us setting a PR at the 100 mile distance (Joël by 1 ½ hours and Jess by 3 hours)
A solid finish at the Pisgah Stage Race
Each of us winning the MASS Overall Endurance Series Championship and the two of us alone representing as the SVB Open Team winning second place open team
Cliff taking second place in the Trail Doggie World Championships (at Christmas Cross); all of the Nankman Family had a good racing year!

Besides accomplishments in racing, we had a great year on the bike overall. Many awesome road trips to new places. Fun times with friends riding local trails, at races, and on road trips. Cliff has become a great trail dog and accompanies us to trails everywhere. Jess’s mom got a bike and there have been quite a few fun rail-trail rides together. New skills learned and previously “I just can’t get it” technical sections cleared. Many gorgeous sunrises and sunsets seen and many beautiful mountain-top views taken in.
