Happy April. DEVO has begun and that means tons of things are about to begin. Monday the U19 men and women will start their Computrainer fitness tracking at The Hub. 8 athletes will take a threshold test to help chart their progress throughout the season. Speaking of season, the first DEVO Team Race will take place in Fruita, Colorado the 23rd to the 25th. We’re guessing around 25 U14,19 athletes and another 25 parents and coaches will camp out and race together at the Rabbit Valley recreation area, right next to the Utah border. But even before all that, Top Secret Training Camp will be offered to all U14,19 athletes in the New Mexico desert. This will be the 3rd running of the training camp and we’re pumped as ever. The camp brings all the DEVO athletes and coaches together to train and get some skills under their belt. And the friday after TSTC is the first DEVO Telegraph Time Trial. The athletes do this once a month to gauge fitness and just because its so dang fun! Who knows when that track will be dry. Speaking of the weather, the JrDEVO kids must be bummin, because their 8 week program has been moved back a week due to soggy trails. Look for their fun bright yellow jerseys out on Durango’s sweet trails beginning the week of April 12th. Oh and there is the Bike Fit night for all DEVO athletes at the Rec Center. If you are doing DEVO, bring yer bike on wednesday night from 6-8pm and have your bike professionally fit to you by Ryan Siggins of Durango Bike Fit. And lastly, money is hard to come buy at the moment so save all your unused cycling stuff to sell at our big spring fundraiser during the Iron Horse Weekend, The DEVO Bike Swap. Thousands of people will be in town to race the train and we’ll sell your stuff to them. Sounds like a plan. Have a nice springish day.
