Some of the IMBCS categories and classes are comeing down to the wire at the Mullet Fall Classic at Lake Ahquabi for the IMBCS! That sets up a perfect season ending IMBCS event at Lake Ahquabi.

Who wouldn't want to see a battle between Neal Groteluschen, TJ Fort, and Eric Wehr for top boss in the Comp Class?

Who wouldn't want to see Karmen Woelber and Katherine Roccasecca duke it out for top Female in the CAT 2 Women? Hell, can we even pronounce their last names properly? I can - courtesy of being fluent in German and Italian as an opera singer. ;-) Those double consonants in Katherine's name are fun to pronounce! And Karmen's name is fun to pronounce after a tall German Oktoberfest beer!

Who wouldn't want to cheer for Bryce Gilbert, Kevin Betters and Jeff Gibson as they duel each other for free entry fees next year to all of the IMBCS events?
What's that? A $250 value? Yup! All the best to you guys!!!

Or how about the "on your left" crew of Cam Kirkpatrick, Brad Auen, Ryan Van Houweling, and Kevin McConnell as they fly at top speed for maximum points to grab top honors?

Forget that - let's cheer on Iowa's finest and proudest mountain biking ladies in the CAT 1 group of Evie, Julie, Kim, Brittany, Robin, Cheryl, Lisa, Darcy, Kim, etc... for what they are doing not only here in Iowa, but also in several states with their excellent riding - be it XC or Endurance racing. Not only are they all awesome, but they are representing our state with aplomb!

Okay....
