Jason Berning's Cache-Game Race Report: Legs to Lungs
The annual Cache to Game Race is always a classic and every year the dynamic is slightly different. With several long races in the season, for some reason this one hurts the most. I always look forward to this race as it truly gets the legs and lungs fired up for race season. This year did not dissapoint. The field was stacked and I knew that everyone had their legs under them with the help of tremendous early season riding weather and trail conditions. I went into this race with one goal, beating my time from last year.
The start is always interesting. Last year the lead Police car took off from the start and an early break away separated the pack before the first turn onto Redmond. This year even with JP fireing it up the side to get the cop to go faster, the cop slowly cruised to the end of the pavement with a deep field stacked up ready to put the hurt on.
Once we hit the dirt there were several pulls and lead changes through lower Cache. The wind was at our back and it was not as important to grab a wheel. As soon as the first steeper climb started I made my move and a crew of of 4-5 riders followed. After a couple of miles it was Cary Smith (big surprise) leading the group and I followed. Cary had about 200 yards on me going into the steep single track climb. The only disapointment of the race was that it was my first Cache to Game that I did not clean the steep climb but surprisingly it did not affect me too much. A true example of legs and lungs not working together. I closed the gap at the top but in my mind Cary had the race if he was in front going into Game Creek.
I focused on my descent by staying low and riding smooth. In the end I was able to hold off a strong pack of riders and beat my time from last year. 2nd again, but no complaints. I always say, "good race with no mechanicals or crashes" especially following a career crash 2 years ago in this race. Cary put some serious time on me in the descent and pulled away with the win. He is a true competitor and one of the best if not the best descenders around.
It is always a treat to ride with such a strong field of riders in the greater Teton area. One of the highlights of local racing is how humble all of these amazing athletes are. The finish is always memorable and a great time to hang out with the strong and supportive Fitzy Team. We had an awesome showing and everyone had a strong race including the Saurdude killing it on his new Spark 29er and 50 stepping up the ranks this year. Oh yah, cant' forget Scott and JP rocking the Fatties. Lovin it riding for team Fitzgeralds Bicycles, and the race season is only getting started. Stoked!
- JasonThe infamous Cache/Game Sprint. What a great event. It has virtually no impact on anything else as far as training or races, it is short and fun as hell.
I had a nice long warm up on the road bike which is always good. I then had a good climb ending up just behind Amy Fulwyler and Amanda Carey on the climb out of Cache Creek. Just over the top I passed my friend Dan Stubel and Amy and had a ripping decent. I kept it together with really only one close call on a soft section of dirt near the bottom of the steep decent. A big wobble of the front wheel but the Scott Spark 29er held the trail. I usually say it is the Man, NOT the Machine, but in this case, that bike carried me to a great decent and a good finish. I ended up passing a bunch of people on the gravel road near the end of the course including Pro rider Amanda Carey, which was a first for me and will probably be the last time I beat that woman.
Anyway crossed in 12th overall and 6th in my class and had a great race. My personal best to boot. I have done that race at least 15 times in the last 25 years. What a blast. Oh and Congrats to Cary Smith for new course record. 5 Minutes faster than my time on a 12 mile course! I also called my buddy Mike Pimm the previous course record holder to break the news to him.
