Race #2 from our buddy George, of Broken Spoke Bike Studio, brought us the rolling grasses and fairways of Hilly Haven Golf Course.
With few tight turns, the course emphasized big, sustained power. 
 It felt like a one hour time trial!
Yes "power"... which brings us to Jon Lester who earned himself a 3rd place podium in Men's Elite.

Monday, January 18, 2021:
 This "race" was different. After experiencing the insanity of the last two years of mass start racing, Jeff Abitz welcomed the opportunity to just ride. Ride in the woods, take in the scenery, and witness the joy and appreciation of Adam Koenig as he discovered the best snow bike trails on the planet. 
Diablo Cycling's Jeff Abitz and Adam Koenig took on the "30" (actually about 37) miles of the Polar Roll Long course thepolarroll.com/2021-polar-roll-ex/ consisting of a lap around Presque Isle, the North Trails and the South Trails.
There was no finish line pageantry, just a cold Barbaric YAWP Burly Scotch Ale from local brewery Blackrocks, and lots of post ride banter in the parking lot.

 After almost a year of mostly cancelled races, a few Diablos eagerly took the opportunity to race
their fat bikes in Race #1 of the Snow Crown four race series.
Course conditions were very fast, and reminiscent of the all out intensity of cyclocross racing.
Results are provided, but remember for most riders, fat bike racing is not something taken too seriously. The focus is riding fun courses, with the excitement of "real" racing outdoors. 
Diablo Racing Results (Top 10 Noted)​
Elite (18 riders)
Brian Davis - 9th 

Advanced (49 riders)
Jeff Abitz - 5th overall (1st in 50+)

Intermediate (69 riders)
