Here's a photo of Phil Weintraub wearing his Corsa kit as he climbed Mount Ventoux. "I just returned from a 3 week visit to the south of France. Unfortunately it only included one day of cycling but that day was up Mount Ventoux. The rest of the trip we were touring around on motorcycles. Phil"

Just more evidence of domination of the cycling world by Chico Corsa. Thanks for the photo Phil.

Six Chico Corsa racers braved the tough Nevada City Classic last weekend. We didn't make the podium but we made sure we made an impression. Anthony Ferretti finished in the pack while Maggie Jones tested out the hay bales and survived in the junior race. Dave Albrecht gave a valiant effort in the Masters 1/2/3 race and finished in the pack. James Plummer and Mike Jasinski were doing well in the 3s early in the race but that darn hill kept beating them into submission. And lastly, Yacov Spivak gave Lance and Levi a run for their money but came up short in the end. However, the Chico Corsa cheering section at the top of the hill could not be challenged as far as support for their team and enthusiasm for NorCal bike racing. Plans are to dominate next year in all areas.
