A quick thanks to everyone who participated, especially the volunteers at registration, course marshals, and support car drivers! The weather wasn’t really nice like last year, but it didn’t stop people from showing up – in fact, the C-race was filled all three weeks, and the A-race was filled the first two weeks. CBRC donated $1,500 to the Brinkerhoff Memorial Scholarship, and another $500 to the Coxsackie Ambulance Squad.
Thanks again!

BEND, ORE. – It was an early morning race for the Junior women 13-14. The first competitors to line up for the day had a muddy course but no rain on their heads and a crowd ready to cheer them on. From the gun, 14-year-old Emma White (Capitol Bicycle Racing Club/NYCROSS.com) charged ahead of the rest of the group and never looked back, holding her position from start to finish and adding her first Cyclocross National Championships jersey to the one she already has on the road.
“My best result was second place, last year,” Emma said. “Today was really muddy. I crashed once. I was pretty much alone most of the race so that was good.” Her thoughts on Madison in January? “I think it will be tougher, but I think it will be good to ride.”
Mina Anderberg (Flatiron Flyers Junior Cycling Project) battled hard for second. “Emma just took off and I couldn’t close the gap,” she said.

Hurry! Preregistration closes at 4:00 today. We hope you’ll decide to save that $5 day-of fee and hit BikeReg!
The course has been substantially re-routed. Lap times will be slightly shorter and much more action will unfold close to spectator spots. It will feature the best parts of the 2006-2009 courses plus two new sections which will be a real pleasure to ride. Our experienced course designers have been hard at work with swoopyness in mind. We will have just enough slick spots to reward skillful bike handling but the Park is drier than it’s ever been for our race. People are going to fly.
Of course, the Chili Cook Off, free beer from The Albany Pump Station, and elite series prizes and podium presentations for the entire NYCROSS Series will be this weekend as well. You won’t want to miss it!
Elm Ave. Park is an easy 15 minutes from I-87 or I-90. Plot your route online to 261 Elm Avenue, Delmar, NY.
Hope to see you there - Chuck Q
We’ve scheduled the annual CBRC Dinner/Business meeting for December 10, 2010 at Bucca di Beppo. Starting at 6pm.
We’ll cover important issues- elections for the board, race promotion plans for 2011, overview of 2010, and awards for members.
Between now and then Eric will be accepting nominations for the four board positions - President, VP, Secretary, and Treasurer. To nominate someone please email the list serve with your nominations. Nominations must be seconded. Of course, there’s always an opportunity to nominate/second at the meeting as well.
On that note, we’d like to also let the club know that Eric won’t be running for president again. He has greatly enjoyed the opportunity to steer CBRC over the last 4 years, but with his developing law practice he clearly no longer has the necessary time to devote to CBRC. Please join us in expressing our gratitude for his tireless service to the club all these years.
Danny will also not be seeking a third term as Secretary. For more detailed information on the duties of the four elected officer positions in the club, see our by-laws.
If you are interested in running or have any additional questions about what the positions entail please contact Eric, Danny, Liz or Harry.
LATE BREAKING NEWS:
Due to overwhelming demand for Cat 5 race spots, the Capital Region Road Race is now offering a Category 4/5 field to compliment the sold out Cat 5 field. If you are a Cat 5 racer and have been closed out of the Cat 5, you can now register for the 4/5 field at http://www.bikereg.com/events/register.asp?eventid=10509.
We still need a few more corner marshals to pull this off properly. PLEASE contact Paul McDonnell to volunteer. All club members are expected to volunteer at at least one CBRC event each year. If you haven’t stepped up yet, here’s your opportunity.
This year we are a part of the Masters Cycling Racing Association (MCRA) series.

Questions: e-mail Paul McDonnell.
Emma White from Delanson, NY riding for Capital Bicycle Racing Club (CBRC) finished an admirable 7th place in the USA Cycling Junior National Championships in the Women Junior 13 – 14 Road race event in Bend Oregon a few weeks ago. One day later Emma found herself on the podium finishing a close 2nd at the Criterium National event. Not one to rest, Emma followed that result with a 3rd place in the Women’s 13 -14 Time Trial event. Congratulations Emma White!
Curtis White, also from Delanson, NY and Emma’s older brother, put in an outstanding effort in the Junior Men 15 - 6 Time Trial, racing to 17th place. Curtis, racing for Corner Cycles is in fine form at the National level. In the 15-16 year old Criterium, Curtis was in a perfect position in 6th wheel with 400 M to go when he had to make a split second decision and a last minute correction that cost him several positions. Similarly, Curtis was at the front in the road race in a break away of five when the dreaded cramps in the closing moments of the race cost him a podium spot. Curtis was right there at the front in both races, in good form, racing well. Late-breaking news: Curtis went down hard at Fitchburg and is now nursing a broken wrist. All our best for a speedy recovery, CW!
Congratulations to both Emma and Curtis for the excellent results, great racing, and for representing our area, CBRC, and their sponsors with veracity and modesty.
Don’t forget: this weekend is the annual CBRC picnic! For those so inclined, feel free to join us for a little pre-picnic cyclocross practice. We’ll rally at the pavillion with bikes and shiny, tight clothing around 10 am.
Sunday, August 22, 2010 from noon to 5 pm at the Bethlehem Town Park at the Bethlehem Cup cyclocross Pavilion. Swimming at the town pool included. Picnic will be catered. Please bring family and friends and celebrate the end of the road racing season (and the start of cyclocross) with us!
The Johnny Cake Lane 3-race series results are in. Thanks to all who came out and especially our intrepid team of plucky volunteers. You’re the reason this event is so successful each year.
