Weekend Racing

Kipp Kaufmann at the ABA sent us some photos from the Coulee Cruiser that happened last weekend in Lethbridge. Apparently there were some changes made to the course from last year and despite the smaller turnout everyone who came raved about the new and improved course. Brian Bain took home the Elite Men’s title and recieved the first Leader plate of the year. For 2008 the series leader in the Elite Men’s and Elite Women’s field gets the right to race with the leader plate at all ABA MTB series races. Expect to see the competition for the series lead and accompanying plate heat up throughout the summer. Congrats go out to Headwinds Cycling for putting on another class event. Apparently it was so well recieved that Lethbridge decided to name a street after Kipp! (editors note: we’ll have to verify that)
