"Putting it down" in the 2-Person TT
The Wolfgang Freitag Memorial two person TT was the 13th race on the MATTS 2009 schedule and racers could not ask for better weather. Highs in the low 80's and manageable winds made for a great day of racing. Thanks goes out to Bob Beck and his wife Nancy, along with the community of Herscher, Illinois for putting on a well organized, stellar event! This year, the county was going to do road construction on part of the course; however, the people of Herscher had other plans. They lobbied the county to wait an additional week to allow the race to go on.
The race featured a visit from two local pros, Reid Mumford (Kelly Benefits) and Bryce Meade (Jelly Belly). These guys blistered the course in 1:03:23 for the fastest time of the day. The fastest elite amateur men's time of the day was turned in by none other than the usual suspects in this category, "The Doctor of Speed", Mike Jones (PACT) and "The Man with a the Motor", Josh Mallan (PACT) who ripped the course in 1:08:12. Brian Harris (PYOC) and Ted Westerhiede (PACT) were a close second turning in a "raw" time of 1:08:30. Dave Polin (WDT) and Reed Oliff (WDT) were third dispensing the course in a time of 1:09:09.
On the ladies side, Ginger Sides (Project 5) and Pascale Petro (Project 5) turned in a great time of 1:22:04 to take the overall crown in the women's elite division. Angela Koch (Vision Quest) and Lee Elise (Vision Quest) were second turning in an excellent time of 1:24:36. Mayilyn Powell (ABD) and Kathy Cobert (MMCT) were third covering the course in 1:25:06.
Other notables were Frank Sondag (Vision Quest) and Clemens Kyllmann (Vision Quest) 1:09:31; Derric Ungaro (WDT) and Doug Peterson (WDT) 1:10:20; Brian Akers (WDT) and James Snedden (ABD) 1:10:46; Dan Norbert (Vision Quest) and Stan Watkins (Vision Quest) 1:10:46; Don Lowe (Mack) and Niel Thomas (Mack) 1:11:27; Dan Madsen (ABD) and Bob Burke (PACT) 1:13:00; Bob Burns (Mack) and Gene Nozicka (Albertos) 1:19:11; Bob Beck (MMCT) and Peter Alexander (MMCT) 1:28:41; Mia Aigotti (Vision Quest) and Kim Schubeck (Vision Quest) 1:25:07; and Pat Beam (RVO) and Kay Childress (RVO) 1:39:07. These results reflect a snapshot of times across all ability levels and age categories. Complete results can be viewed at http://midwestmasters.com/
Again, a big thanks goes out to Bob and Nancy Beck, the Herscher's boys' football team who where the set up and clean up crew for the event, Peter Sides for taking pictures of the event, and all the people of Herscher who make this race possible each and every year. Thank you!
The next MATTS event is the Doctor Craig Schultz Memorial 40K on July 17th in Cordova, Illinois. See http://ambikerace.com/ under the calendar heading for race details. This is mostly a flat, fast course, and produces some of the fastest 40K times on the circuit. If you are wanting to try your hand at making the sub hour club for 40K this season, this is your course. See you there!
