UltraRob Riding in Utah, 2006 Race across America

As much as I’d like to say I’ve secretly been training for the Race Across America, I haven’t been. I’m far from that kind of fitness but I still plan to be a part of the race this year.

Last year I had planned to crew for David Holt’s rookie RAAM attempt. Unfortunately some physical problems during training caused him to cancel a couple months before. He’s been training hard this winter and is ready to do it this year.

He still needs a couple more people to crew for him in order to do it. Of course he prefers someone he has been involved with RAAM or at least a qualifier but that’s not necessary. Being able to function with a small amount of sleep, sit in a van for longs hours and deal with the unexpected is. If this sounds interesting, leave a comment or send an e-mail.

    Crewing for a RAAM rider or team sounds even harder than doing RAAM.

    Brad, I think riding and crewing are about the same difficulty but very different. Crewing doesn’t take the hours of training though. I’ve only ridden RAAM so don’t know for sure on the crewing but I’m going to find out.
