Spuds Tear it up at ironcross!

Scotti, Uncle Larry, Dan, Scroggy, Kirk and Paul laid down good enough individual times at Ironcross to win 3rd in the team competition. Way to go Spuds! Scotti Green, our newest Spud, finished in under 5hrs to claim 7th in the Single speed class. Scotti is the man. We won a case of the Miller High Life for our efforts. Yuk! Who wants it?

7 Springs 24 hour race

Mechanical ? WTF !! Raced the Springs for years on geared bikes. NEVER a mechanical!!

Put the SPUDS on a SS and the bikes fall apart. This Pic Says it all. The SPUDS were behind some ones ass for the entire race.

1st place Bean Eaters !, 2nd place SPUDS ! 3rd place Guy's ! All the BEST to those who raced and supported. Not bad for SPUDS on SS.

Spuds tearing it up at SSAP 2010! What a great event. Good job...kirk, PT and UL

Gutbuster Re-scheduled

After some serious thought I have decided to reshcedule the Gutbuster. I am not sure of a date yet but keep checking the site for updates. The trails at Scroggs are not fully ready for a quality event and the newly dozed parking lot is still very muddy. I am looking at Saturdays in May and even considering a friday evening event with bonfire. Like I said keep checking in for updates and sorry for being so wish-washy but I want to make sure it is a quality event.

Thanks!

Gutbuster 2010 - Saturday April 10th!

Gutbuster is on for 2010! I hope. It all depends on the weather and how Scroggys trails hold up. Keep checking back to the Spud Racing blog site for updates and directions as we get closer to the day. Initial plans - 20-30 minute time trial - perfect warm for Fairhill, beer tent, eggs and lots of fun, super tech trails. Keep posted!

Final 2010 Spud Jersey - FINALLY!

Fit kit is on its way.

Spud Jersey part4

Here is the most recent design I am trying to make everyone happy in one way or another.

The front will be green and the back orange. That solves the color issue...I hope. I made the sponsor logos smaller and on only once. I agree with UL...The spuds were founded as a grassroots type team and we should continue to carry that tradition. However, Lupine and Soul have been very generous to me and others on the team. Make sure to ask me the next time you need parts. I can get you them at wholesale prices. So...All I need is to get a fit kit. Let me know your thoughts and if everyone is OK with the current option I will get the kit for us to pick sizes.

Spud Jersey 2010 part 3

New prices - Short sleeve - $75.50 Long sleeve - $88.00

Sleeveless - $75.50

What version do you like best? Orange or Green?

Spud Jerseys - part 2

Here is the revised jersey. We have room for another sponsor if anyone wants to try and get one. Spud Linds had some good ideas for some minor changes. Also, Spud Randy requested long sleeves as well. I would definitly want both. I would like to order Louis Garneau Carbon Ion Jerseys. They are like the Holmes shirts we have and are super nice. They are expensive: $86.00 for short sleeve and $99.00 for long. Let me know what everyone wants. we have a 12 piece minimum. I am getting 2 short and 1 long. Any other suggestions are welcome and lets get a meeting together soon.

An update of sorts...

The week before Thanksgiving a couple of us got together to the annual Cranksgiving event. In short, it's a bike "race" around the city of York to different grocery stores picking up certain items. The first "racers" back to the end location is the winner. Our very own PT took home third place this year. But we can't give him 3rd without at least busting is balls a little. There was like 5 in our group and Paul was just the first one to the table to sign in... any one of us could have had third. "Hell, if I knew it was for third place I would have sprinted down the street!!! " All kidding aside it was an awesome day for a great cause!

Just this past weekend Uncle Larry and I headed out to Pittsburgh for the 20th Annual Dirt Rag Punk Bike Enduro. Another great time was had in the company of 230+ of our muddiest friends.

This year as opposed to last we did some of the races that are held during the ride. This was cool because you didn't have to wait behind for the pack to move, you went first...even if you weren't racing per se. In doing so, we wreaked a few times, got insanely muddy AND.... got to the kegs first!!

We ran into some locals and we also ran into people that remembered us from last year. That is the beauty of Punk Bike...hanging with people you don't know, drinking beer and sharing laughs for the one common love of bikes. Can't wait for next year!

Spud Nite Rides

Hey Spuds,

Nite rides will be starting up soon. Times and places will be coming out soon. Looks like Scroggy has his property all ready for some good loops and we will probably hit pinchot on occasion as well as the YAMBA led rides. Would like to hit Gretna and Lambs gap also. Keep in touch here and with your fellow spuds for info.
