Some race photos from the Hillbilly Hustle cyclocross in Elmer, New Jersey on October 4, 2009. These shots are from the Masters men’s race. Big shoutout to the guys way up there in the 50’s still cranking super hard. This was a fantastic race: amazing technical course, fast riders and a great atmopshere to hang out.

On Wednesday, May 23, 2012; Jim and Judy left the timeshare in Sevierville, TN by 10 AM traveling over the Great Smoky Mountains, through North Carolina, Athen, GA to Macon and to Valdosta. It took 10.5 hrs. There was a 40 minute delay going to the top of the Smokies because they are repaving the road. We stopped at a Wendy’s in Clayton, GA for a small lunch, and in Vienna, GA at a Huddle House for a quick supper. It was good to arrive home around 8:30 PM.
