JANUARY  8,  2011

What appears to be an omen of the 2011 season the boys on the Bicycle World.TV team have made it two in a row taking out first AND second place at the 12 hours of Papago. All reports on the race are that it was supperbly organized and lots of fun, high compliments coming from seasoned racers..

Here is a brief write up of the event by Paul Broaderip - who was part of the winning team.

Team BicycleWorld.TV takes home first and second place overall at the 12 hours of Pain and Purpose (Papago).

All I can say is, "what a great event". From the drive into the race site to the end of the award ceremony; Red Rock Racing put on an amazing event. It was nice to race in an atmosphere they created including great music, Live football games, up to date race stats on a big screen TV and a beer garden. Enough about the frills.
 
Team BicycleWorld.TV had two teams entered in the quad male event with Ryan Waldron and Jeff Herrara starting for us. After a blistering first lap Jeff Herrera sped through the timing shoot with a three minute lead over second place. Ryan got a little lost but was able to finish his lap in good standing. The rest of our day was spent putting more time into our competition with Daryll Mckenzie, Jeff Herrera and I doing double lap turns. Our fourth team mate Tom Obrien, did six laps back to back with nearly identical lap times. When all was said and done We ended up racing against our other team consisting of Jimmy Alexander, Matt Berault, Jack Adams and Ryan Waldron.
 
Thank you Red Rock Racing for a memorable event.
