Racing on the HX1 for Maximum Results!



Chumba Racing,
     Its been a while since I have given an update for you guys so here it is! It has been a very tough start to the season for myself. I got sick in March after college visits. I trained and raced as much as I could but many weekends had to be spent resting in bed. Up until April i didn't know why I couldn't shake this sickness, but my doctor finally ordered up some blood tests for Mono and they came back positive. I started feeling a little better in the beginning of May but by the end of May and into June I couldn't bear it any more. After my last race on that Tuesday in June until now I have had to continue to rest even though the Mono is gone but something else is still wrong so I'm on my third antibiotic which is hopefully the magic number because the doctors believe I have a recurrence of pneumonia that i had in last fall. Oh yea did I tell you I got bit by a bat on a twilight ride in the beginning of June. It been a crazy spring and start to the summer but in a week I should be back at it and preparing for my journey to Brevard College in North Carolina to race collegiate cycling and study. Yes I will be representing the Brevard Tornado's Collegiate Cycling Team as well as Chumba Racing this fall. Attached are some photos of my 2 amazing Chumba Racing machines and a first look at my racing outfit made for all of my sponsors so I can further support them and the great things they have contributed to make my racing all possible! I also have some results to boast in my first year racing in the Expert class(Cat 1). My highlight result is the second to last race before i got really sick again which was at Holiday Valley Ski Mountain where I came in first place on my Chumba HX2, which plowed over the roots and rock gardens to win by a 4 minute gap beating the local pro.  I have been constantly looked for updates on the new Chumba EVO G2 which I cannot wait to hop on and shred down and up the ski mountains! Let me know when i can get a hold of one of these frames in a size large because I have already started getting parts and cannot wait to see if this revolution in frame construction is as awesome as is looks!

  thanks,
      Kenneth
