Survive the Challenge II

The IMBCS #2 race is on tap for this Sunday at Camp Ingawanis is Waverly, Ia. The race is on a 9 mile loop and it should be a great day for a race. The Rasmussen Racing team will be there and hammering away. Look for Pete, John, and Andy to be competing for podium spots in the Sport category. Cam, Lou and Squirrel will be showing how it's done in the Expert category.
