We greatly enjoyed the week we had on, but unfortunately we’ve got to take another week off. In the meantime though, enjoy the mud and have a happy Halloween.

-Hammerhead Bicycles Dirt Derby featuring True Fabrication.

After much ballyhoo about the weather and the unfortunate muddy tendencies of our beloved course, the Derby was back. And it was kickin.

Ladies’ Night was on, with some 20 women, and one guy who looked like a woman, enjoying the free racing. Thanks to LunaChix and Bobby’s Bikes for helping put that on.  Hammerhead Bicycles had a stand, Bobby’s Bikes had a tent, Violet Crown Cycles had a tent, News 8 Austin was there, and a whole bunch of racers were there too.

All this to say, it was good to be back. And results are posted. And the overall results from our abbreviated first series have undergone a bevy of corrections. And also that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and that the Luna Chix and us recommend this site if you’re inclined to donate: www.breastcancerfund.org

Thanks for coming out. We wish you a very dry next 7 days,

No more rain dances please. Ladies Night is going to be awesome.

A heads up to anyone looking to sharpen their ‘cross skills: some friends of ours are putting on a clinic this weekend. Juicy details below.

New month, same weather. Things are currently ‘squishy’ out on the course. If you were at ACL this weekend, you still don’t know what mud is. At this point, an ark made of innertubes is a possibility, and also perhaps throwing rice all over the course to soak up the moisture.

As previously, next time will be Ladies Night. As always, check the website, www.dirtderby.com, for the latest information on race details. In the meantime, click on over to our Sponsors page, dirtderby.com/sponsors for ideas on what to do with your Tuesday evening.

Awaiting our second return of 2009,
