We kinda hate to see 2018 go, it was a great season with a lot of individual and team achievements.
GVR riders racked up roughly 535 race and event starts during the year (unfortunately the number of starts and finishes don’t match, but they’re pretty close).
A weekly rundown of events can be found here.
There was one last weekend of racing in 2018 this past week at U.S. Cyclocross Nationals in Louisville, Kentucky. And, of course, it rained.
A rundown of race results can be found here.
A short video chronicling the three races leading up to, and including, Nationals can be found here.
The team’s 2018 season is quickly winding down, but riders were out battling each other and the elements at the Midwest regional championships Saturday in the run-up to U.S. Cyclocross Nationals later this week.

Three of the worst weather races I have done have been WI State Championships. This year makes that list, but the mud was actually pretty fun to race in.

There are still a few weeks left in the 2018 season, but we generally roll out our season re-cap video around Thanksgiving. So here it is! Enjoy some of our moments from the last year of racing.

Same cool colors, same great taste, but now with 10 percent less fat! (Thanks to the addition of an aero jersey option).
GVR riders will be sporting a new look and a few new pieces of kit in January thanks to the fine folks at Borah Teamwear in Coon Valley, Wisc.
Yes, people, this stuff is handmade by folks in Wisconsin. We know, because we met many of them on the production floor.
No new kit would be complete with out new socks from North Carolina-based DeFeet.
We’re proud to support these two fantastic Made In The USA companies.
