THE BLUE RIBBON KOM RACE IS
ON MARCH THE 22nd
There are a few consistent improvers in
the KOM handicap race. For example
James Beck and Jack Chaplin seem to be
able to get up there consistently. I guess
simply because they are young men on
the improve. Over the next few years it
would not surprise me if they achieved
good results. I see lots of improvement in
them.
Improving is the key in the Mud, Sweat
and Gears blue ribbon event. If you can
improve in a big way then you can find
yourself with a chance of winning. I think
Morris has got the handicaps really good
now. The race is a lot closer for a lot
more cyclists.
KOM: the race that BHBC adores
Of course it’s not all about a win. The
start line is blessed to have amazing
colour and atmosphere; this is something
to experience. The Mud, Sweat and Gears
blue ribbon race has something for
everyone. Its a race that has captured the
full attention of the Blackwood Hills Baptist Church. People at
BHBC are now keen to learn about the race and about the many
gifted cyclists that God has blessed us with in Mud, Sweat and
Gears.
What a race it will be! I pray to God that you are blessed by this
race in many ways. I pray that you can look forward to it with
excitement. I pray that Blackwood Hills Baptist Church and
Mud, Sweat and Gears can be strengthened through this time of
fellowship.
EDITORIAL:
GOD IS WITH US IN EVERY PART OF OUR LIFE
Praise God for Mud, Sweat and Gears! Praise God for the cycling and fitness
ministries within our Church at Blackwood Hills Baptist.
Christian exercise with God at the centre of our purpose, plans and goals is
another very important part of our lives. I kind of think that we all exercise. If we
are walking or singing and praising God than we are still exercising! In this way
everyone is exercising.
God is with us in every part of our life, not simply prayer, praising God and Bible
time and He is very much a part of our exercise life as well. Using these gifts
and talents for God is something that the Blackwood Hills Baptist Church
enjoys.

THE TOP TEN CHALLENGE EACH OTHER
AS THEY MEET AGAIN AT THE KOM...
The KOM race is getting faster and faster each year, and not simply faster at
the top. The whole top ten has improved! There is more depth in Mud, Sweat
and Gears than ever before. Despite champions Scott Intveld and Mark
Lehmann out of the top ten, the times were still very fast last year.
Rounding out the top ten was Craig Adams. Now Craig has actually won the
race before. This man is capable of placing himself in the top 5 this year, no
doubt. He is a lean riding machine capable of returning to excellent results.
Daniel Badger finished in 9th last year, on a road bike! What a legend, can he
improve on his time? Another exciting rider is Jake Racz. Jake is a rider on the
improve in a big way. He is already very, very fast on the road bike and I think
it’s only going to be a couple of years before we see him up the top, but for this
years race I can see him moving up a place or two simply because he is a
quality rider. Very much a road rider at this stage, but it’s good to see him doing good things on the MTB early on.
Eric Lundborg has also achieved good times, along with Andrew Stone and
David Wight. They have all worked very hard to become good riders. Brandon
has also been consistently up in the top 4 and I have no doubt he will be up
there once again. Michael Noske was some what of a surprise for us, although
once you have seen him ride you know he's a quality cyclist.
The battle for the KOM win is something very interesting to everyone at Mud,
Sweat and Gears. The young favourite Isaac will battle it out to defend last
years win, but there is definitely a few riders around to challenge him. The top
ten is certainly more interesting than ever before. All the best for every cyclist.
