The teams have been announced for the team time trials on Thursday night. I must admit it was nice not having to recruit for racers for the first time. Team High Speed Low Drag is coming to the gate with lots of experienced racers this week . Expectations for High Speed are high indeed. The elusive goal is for the first all-recumbent team to make history by qualifying for a Premier League invite as the target.
High Speed's little brother, Team Low Drag is also elevating their goals to move up in the Mocha Division and to pass a team this week. Easier said than done, but lots of scheming in the strategy shack is going on to make this happen.
The Flamingos and Unicorns will continue to impress with recumbent riders Connie and Maria as the only lady recumbent participants in the TTT. Rumors have it that HQ wants to move these two into the High Speed Team to fill out the roster and give this team a boost in performance. If High Speed doesn't reach their goal soon don't be surprised to see them try poach these girls.
Speaking of poaching, Benphyr Knou has vacated the mighty Bees leaving Cruzbikes highest wattage producer Chris Cooper as the only recumbent rider on the team. Don't worry about those Bees though. They are stacked with a powerful and full 8 person squad. Ben has moved over to that "Any Team Poachable" group (ATP) where he will race with team ATP Radon.
Another interesting development this week is Jason Perez and Larry Oslund will race together for the first time ever as they team up on ATP Argon. We are seeing a trend where our faster Cruzbikers are learning the ropes under the Herd umbrella and then moving to the more performance oriented ATP Group. Of course, Jason can't get enough of this racing stuff so after the zone 7 Argon race he will suit up with ATP Oxygen and race in zone 8. This is great experience for our recumbent boys, but just remember guys, one day you're going to get a call to come home.
