12 Hours of Stump......and Bill Peters!

That time of the year when a few of us like to ride our bikes for longer periods of time at the Camp.....the Stump Farm 12. The Stadium Bike Team had a handful of riders up there getting after it, while the majority of us did 3 hours, a few did 6 hours, and then Bill went for 12! I talked to Bill early in the week and he was ready and committed to doing the full 12 hours and going for 100 miles? The top picture is Bill after his second lap, big smile and still feeling great!


Fast forward to lap number 11 for Bill, is that a smile or a ............. get me the hell off this bike look! Bill, you were awesome out there, be proud of yourself, 9.1 miles per lap times 11 laps......equals 100 in my book!!!!! Very nice job!

The rest of us: myself, Warren, Mike Giesen, Joel Stewart, Rob Livingston and Dale Crocker....I think that is everyone? Also a big thank you to the Performa crew, Paul and Brandon rode in with Bill on his last lap....that was cool! If you have not been to a lot races this year, the Performa team from Green Bay is a few of the former Bellin riders.......we have a great relationship with them and Saturday was a great example of that.....those two riding in with Bill was what we are all out there for......thanks guys!

Off to Rhinelander next weekend, a great course and venue, hope to see a few more of our team riders out there as the season winds down.....good camping and good pasta.....oh and great trails and race course :)

See you out there!
