It was a night race! Race #2 of 3, of the Snow Crown Fat-Bike Race Series was held on the well lit and dusty, dusty? cross country ski trails of the Reforestation Camp. To coin and overused phrase, it could be described as a "rolling grass criterium" as the course was wide and fast (17 mph+ average speeds), with constant position changes. In the last lap, Jeff Abitz lost the "sprint before the sprint" but still scored a 2nd in Masters Elite...good enough for a $40 gift card to race sponsor Broken Spoke Bike Studio www.brokenspokebikes.com/. Andrew Knickerbocker sliced his drop bars through the riders (not literally) and hammered his way up to a 5th in Elite. Brian Hansen earned a 2nd in Masters Advanced and Bessey (John) turned his pedals in circles, finishing 9th in Advanced.

Race #1 of 3, of the Snow Crown Fat-Bike Race Series commenced at the scenic Hilly Haven Golf Course. Unlike last years blizzard conditions, this year's course was dry and fast. Woodsy single track, lightly frost covered golf cart paths, and smooth fairway straights favored the overall (strength, handling and tactical) racer. Jeff Abitz's last lap pass, prior to the single track switch back downhill, offered him just enough margin to win the sprint for 2nd place in the Old Guy Elite category. Here are Diablo Racing's results: Elite Male (16 total) - 6 laps (1-49) 13 total Andrew Knickerbocker – 9th, 12th overall Masters (over 50) 4 total Jeff Abitz - 2nd, 8th overall Advanced Male (15 total) - 5 laps Masters (over 50) 3 total Brian Hansen - 1st, 8th overall Full Results: results.itsracetime.com/results.aspx?CId=17095&RId=1385    - Jabitz
