Brawl of the Wild - Cyclocross Style

In anticipation for the upcoming "Brawl of the Wild" I did some research on who's leading the Montanacyclocross.com "Town Standings." Through Great Divide CX.

1. Bozeman 27 wins - strong up and coming performances from Dingman and Mini Morgan have helped the already strong Currys, and JulieZ

2. Helena 17 wins - Herzig's resurgence mixed in with Frankie's consistency is leading the charge, but the Brooke family and Finley have helped increase the tally.

3. Missoula 16 wins - Mostly led by Bridger and Campbell, Missoula also scored big wins from Kindred, Fiore, and Scotty.

4. Flathead 9 wins - Chance and Chauner lead this bunch, but a Killien and a couple others chipped in as well.

5. Billings 1 win - Rob Newsome is the man in Billings.

Griz/Cat Cross & Z Cross

Griz/Cat Cross is Saturday and Z Cross is Sunday. This is the last race weekend of the Montana series. The battle for state glory doesn't get any better then this weekend. Snow, Fort Missoula, MSU vs UM, Velo, Flathead, GAS, and Cougs. Currys, Herzig, Frank, Chance, Doll, Campbell, Brooke, and Tomas all look primed for state titles, but anything can happen. Look out for local Mssla surprises. Sam is at La Ruta, but Missoula Bicycle Works could put together a surprise late season performance. Here's a video I've been watching to get pumped up for the action. It's a little older, but still top notch.

Curry takes 15th in Fort Collins

Lisa Curry took 15th on Sunday at the New Belgium Cup USGP. Curry excelled on the muddy Fort Collins course. With a 19th and 15th on the weekend LC takes a ton confidence into the latter half of the season. Thanks to Andrew Genco for the photo.

Cougars and MT Velo are friends. I liked this photo from Tyler Brandt. Herzig, Franky, and Jesse continued their strong riding in Helena. Congrats to Great Divide and MT Velo on a great weekend.

Herzig continues his late season tear
