A Sleepy Hollow tradition, so named by my original team back in 2002, Wednesday nights means Wednesday Night Worlds. Not sure if it was Mike Payne or Spencer Powlison or maybe Matt Mollo that came up with the name, but in any case we must have said it around the front desk of the lodge often enough that it's now become the semi-official name. If Eli uses the phrase, it counts! We don't get a chance to race WNW often enough due to the Carnival schedule, but with an off weekend between the Colby and UVM Carnivals, tonight was the perfect chance to have the team put on the bibs and mix it up on 3 laps of Sleepy's 2k night loop. This loop has it all-a short sharp climb, a longer easier climb ("easier" being relative), and a couple of small quick ups, plus a few flat sections that you have to work, a long easy straightaway downhill, and of course, a chance to bomb down the Tina Turner Trail with a hard left at the bottom. Great workout for sure that tests everything!
