Red Rock Rampage

The first ICUP race was a blast! For many of us it was like a family reunion. We haven't been together as a team since The 24 Hours of Moab last fall. After the how are you's and good to see you's it was time to concentrate on the race. The true test of how well each of us did during the winter months. The starting line is an interesting place. We're only there for a few minutes but they can seem like an eternity. It's another chance to catch up with friends, talk trash and an attempt to size up the competition. Questions start to enter you mind as you're reminiscing waiting for the gun. Are last season's fast guys still going to be fast? How will these new faces perform? Then it starts, the nervousness disappears and those questions will soon be answered. When the race is over it's over. The fast guys win and the rest of us judge ourselves on how well we did. It isn't necessarily a matter of winning or loosing but evaluating our performance based on our expectations. After all, we do this because we like it. It brings us happiness and offers a since of satisfaction and togetherness.
