The 7th annual Battle of Waterloo CX is considered by many to be the favorite course on the schedule. The variety of grass, pavement, gravel, sand, and convenient rider heckling opportunities are well appreciated. Starting hole shot prizes and great cash payouts provides some post race beer money for the fastest. One Diablo hot shot put in a solid effort.

 2.4 Mile Lake Swim - 112 Mile Hilly Road Ride - 26.2 Mile Rolling Run Scot Rajsich completes his 5th Ironman Triathlon! In Scot's words: "Goal # Accomplished.... become a 5X Ironman Swim: Great PR = 1:11 for 2.4 miles Bike: Okay, averaged around 15 or 16 mph... course was longer at 113.5 Miles and almost 6K feet of climb. * Flat on Course - some roads really suck. * Crash or "topple over" on 1st loop - Midtown steep portion - Looked back at someone who said "Scot way to go". Then looked up and a person walked in front of my bike. Toppled over and hit Quad / Groin on my bike. Then my body totally seized up...even my thumbs. I rode another 70 miles in that condition and could not get enough nutrition to stop it. Run: Ran probably 3 miles total and walked the rest. I could not run due to pain in my legs, groin and butt. I did accomplish the 140.6+ miles in 16:28. If you cant be 1st be around last. This finish was a long way from my 2015 sub 12 hour finish.

 Sunday, August 22, 2021 Lakeside Park in Fond du Lac, WI www.dutrirun.com/page/show/6455889-race-the-lake Race the Lake is back for 2021! Four Diablos raced, this always popular and prestigious, 91 mile road race around Lake Winnebago. At 5:30 am Jeff Abitz left Fond du Lac with eight others in the Fat Bike category were he, and another rider, quickly separated from the group. Working together, they maintained their margin going into Oshkosh. At 5:50 am Brian Davis, Peter Post, and Andrew Webb left with the "competitive" Wave 1. As Wave 1 passed Jeff and his opponent in Oshkosh on E. Murdock (west), Jeff made his move. As the wave 1 group turned right (north) onto Bowen St., he sprinted his fat bike up to the back of the peloton, receiving a 25+ mph, 12 mile tow going into Neenah. His opponent missed this opportunity. Riding mostly solo from there, Jeff rode out the remaining 59 miles to the Fat Bike win, with a 10 minute margin. Over an hour earlier, Brian, Peter, and Andrew finished on their skinny tired road race bikes, all with top 3 category awards! Race the Lake is a race for some, and a big ride for others. With 12 waves there is a group and pace for everyone. For many this is their first race. With a shirt, six rest stops, support vehicles, food, beverages, and substantial medals and trophies, this well volunteered race/event is highly recommended.
        And now, a video by Brian Davis. Keep them coming mate! - Jabitz
 In Jon's words: "My goal was to hang with the pros for as long as I could, with a stretch goal of finishing with them. A stretch that was. I lasted 30 miles with them (including a chase back with @davehaase_ultraracer after an attack popped us off). At 30 miles, I knew I wouldn’t be able to maintain that effort and still finish, so I dialed the power back and watched the pros race off. I had some dark moments in the 121 miles that remained, but I finished, and finished the best I could that day. Thanks for all your help @t2mcoach!".  Full results: https://www.athlinks.com/event/142551/results/Event/976199/Results   As quoted by Jon: "My #giantrevolt (was) ready thanks to Recyclist Bicycle Co. They put together the perfect bike for this race. How they found the parts and made it all come together is a miracle!! I’d be forced to use my mountain bike for this race, if it wasn’t for Recyclist." - Jabitz
