The points racked up for Team Cinelli Ritchey in the National Series Races last year.
E30:
Tim – 41pts. – 4th Place
Inigo – 37pts. – 7th Place
E40:
Rick – 69pts. – 2nd Place
RM20:
Ray – 32pts. – 4th Place
In Elite team standings – 128pts. – 9th Place
However this doesn’t seem to add up. We should have accumulated 147pts. in Elite which would put us in 7th place, one point ahead of Specialized. Anyone care to follow-up on this?
我們受 Rick 和 Tina 和 Olive 和 Kai 的招待在他們東勢山上的家過元旦。白天在山上健行。晚上隔著新社臺地眺望台中市的煙火秀。早餐是 homemade biscuits (by Tina), 咖啡,炒馬鈴薯和茶葉蛋。晚餐是豆漿火鍋,烤肉。Two-course dessert 是 cheese cake 和 Tina 做的南瓜派。
Rick 和 Tina 的 mountain home 要爬四,五公里的陡坡才到的了。我現在才知道原來有時候 Rick 和我們在周六騎完後還要再爬回來做那些 never-ending home improvement projects.
我們討論也許下次我們隊上訓練營就可用此作基地。或 survival camp。
We are spread out all over during the New Year– Inigo in Basque country, us here in Taichung, Ray recovering from a training crash in Taipei. And currently TCR seems to be engaged in much pastry-eating and doing more than our share of living well. But soon, very soon, soon enough, we shall train hard and go fast and Super Supau will once again become a stable of our diet.
TCR wishes everyone a great 2010, and that you have as much fun as we’ll be having!
"how'd you like your eggs?" "hmmm, i'll have tea eggs please."
This time, as part of my winter training, I am riding my mountain bike (Mtb). Not only it is a lot of fun, but you train different muscles and intensity, the upper body has to work harder and you need to practise short-violent accelerations of just a few pedal strokes to roll over steep hills. It is also good for bike-handling skills, specially when it is muddy and slippery as it is here sometimes.
I am back home in the Basque Country, north of Spain, visiting family and friends for Christmas, as usual. But the Cinelli-Ritchey machine doesn´t stop, and I am training for the new 2010 season here.
Last Sunday I rode 4 hours inland direction to Navarra, then up a small mountain to France, then westbound to the coast to return to Hondarribia.
2010 台灣 Team Cinelli Ritchey 車隊要找一位認真,對自行車有熱情,W20-30 女性選手。
我們希望找到的是有潛力,願意訓練,獨立自主,自己很愛騎車,愛比賽的妳。
我們一直想要開始一個 TCR Women’s Team. 但說真的,我們不知道台灣是否有愛曬太陽,不愛吃吃喝喝,不屑被人“呵護” ,能正面代表我們贊助伙伴的妳?
如果妳是我們的 It Girl, 妳會得到 TCR 隊上的贊助和資源,包括:
Cinelli車架
Ritchey 輪組,零件,
NW 車鞋
and much much more… 最重要的是,妳會學到正確的騎程和訓練概念 (forget all that you’ve learned before!)
Schwalbe 2010 年將贊助台灣 Team Cinelli Ritchey 車隊。TCR 會使用 Durano open 胎和內胎作訓練。比賽時我們會用 Durano Tubular 管胎。
Team Cinelli Ritchey will be sponsored by Schwalbe in 2010. TCR will be using the ultra durable Durano clinchers and tubes during training and the top-end Durano tubulars during races. We are really excited that Schwalbe will be joining TCR, and can’t wait to mount the Duranos on our new Ritchey wheels! As matter of fact, the first batch of Duranos already arrived from Germany two weeks ago. That’s Teutonic efficiency!
德國的 Schwalbe 輪胎是 TCR 新的贊助伙伴。第一批 Durano 兩周前已從德國 ups 到單模了。Talk about Teutonic efficiency! 我們等不及要把 Schwalbe 裝在新的 Ritchey 輪組上。235g 的 Schwalbe Durano open 胎在正常使用下是 rated 可用 10,000km!! 我們會陸續 post 實際使用心得。
TCR stands out in Taiwan as a small but tight-nit team that reach successes through a collective spirit and cooperative efforts, and we have always counted our sponsors as part of the family. We appreciate the continuing support of current sponsors, and welcome new friends. Our sponsors’ support is vindication of TCR’s unique philosophy.
Yeah, Team Cinelli-Ritchey went off-road, but not out of control, this last weekend at Merida Cup in Baiguo Shan near Shetou. And again it was visible at the (extended) podium, with a 7th position finish, behind some top pro riders.
謝謝芳子(機車倒坐)和小玉(騎沒煞車的公爵 125)冒身命危險為人民服務。
Xiaoyu (wrestling with a 15-year-old brakeless scooter) and Fangzi (sitting backwards pro-style on said scooter) risked their well-being for these footage. They were heroic.
80km. 13 climbs. Over 2200m of climbing. Just over 4 hours. 9 guys. Xiaoyu and Fangzi the support/photo crew. Along the Dadu plateau that sepeartes Taichung city from the sea. Who’d have thought there’d be so much climbing along that humble looking rise.
天氣完美。伙伴同道。我感謝上帝給我們這麼好的一天。
It was a perfect day for riding. Great weather. Great camaraderie.
Today we raced the 7th and last race of the Nacional Cycling Club Series to close the 2009 season, and Team Cinelli Ritchey had another success with podium placements in all categories!
Ray was 1st! in RM20, Inigo was 5th and Tim 8th in Elite30 and Rick was 4th in Elite40.
Team Cinelli Ritchey was 3rd in Team classification!
A not so ghoulish day in Dajia (hint… it’s Halloween), cool breeze, bright but not too sunny or hot. Team CR was looking sharp in top shelf kit and equipment. No matter, it was my little kids that gained most attention! We rode a warm up lap, prepared for the start. Delayed! .. and worse, only 3 laps instead of 4. Wait some more. Warm-up was long gone, time for a nap, or some lunch. Finally racing, and predictably fast.
