Back To Dirt

Archive for June, 2009

On Sunday, June 7, 2009, the Inland/Back to Dirt development team ran a great race at the Catawba Riverfront Classic in Charlotte. Four junior racers came and raced, while Charlie Storm raced in the Expert race. I raced Junior 15-16 and placed first, while Junior teammate Byron Rice raced in the 13-14 class and also finished first. Byron and I hung together for the majority of the race, passing all of the Clydesdale riders and a majority of the Beginner men. The course was a little bit slick, but dried out as the race went on and it was possible to pick up a little more speed towards the end of the race. Overall the race went well, no injuries or major mechanicals made for a nice race day.  -Cameron Muir

I would also like to take this time to express how proud I am of all of our Back To Dirt/Inland Construction junior racers.  They are great ambassadors for our sport as well as our sponsors.  I am also very thankful for the response from the cycling community to our junior racers.  They are doing an awesome job extending the reach of the Back to Dirt/Inland Construction brand.  It is an honor for me to be involved with such fine young men and women as well as the Back to Dirt/Inland Construction team.  - Thanks, Howard Rhyne
