Belt, Montana

The Belt Omnium is this weekend! This is the first road race after the Rocky Mountain Roubaix and Five Valley Velo is planning on sending a strong group of Category 4 and 5 riders. So far we have Jeff Twohig, Ely Wilkinson, Kyle Shannon and Willy Zellmer. All of these guys have been coming on strong over the past few weeks. In the Cat 1,2,3 we won't be as well represented, but I'll try and make a go at it.

Belt is a great, early season road race and is a must-do for anyone who is planning on racing The Tour of the Bitterroot. This race consists of a 5 mile time trial in the am and the 40 mile road race in the pm. The road course is a rolling hills course without any big climbs. The one thing that riders may have to contend with is the wind. Let the Orange Crush dominate like we did at the Roubaix. I'll post a report after the race.

Check this guy out!
