The events begin early heading into the holiday weekend: on Thursday night, the action begins when the ladies take charge of the road…. Please join the women of SSSMST as we ride and then dine with some wine. If you haven’t had a chance to RSVP, it’s ok. We still want you to come. Meet at 6:00 at Second Sole, see other details here.
The competition begins on Saturday with the first cyclocross race of the year. The event will be held at Camp Manatoc in the Cuyahoga Valley! On Sunday, a mountain bike race will be held at the same venue. You should try to make it down to Camp Manatoc. The trails are only open to riders once a year so it’s an opportunity you won’t want to miss.
There are many chances to road race locally this weekend. From 5 miles to a 5k Bier run there is something for everyone!
Just a reminder, the Wednesday night Spin ride is now moving to Edgewater Park. Come with your cross or mountain bike as we ride and jump our way around the park.

For many, it’s getting down to the business end of the season into taper mode for the big one. The lure of competition is still strong though, and there are few opportunities as good as an actual race to get a good training session in.
With that in mind, Scott Zubricky ran the Buckeye Half Mary in preparation for the Akron Marathon where he finished just outside the top 20. Joe Bush was there too, but it just wasn’t his day. Rob Thompson took second at the weekly Westlake Criterium in preparation for mountain bike/cyclocross season, and Brain Stern continued his strong season at the Presque Isle Tri as he marches towards long course nationals.
Nice work guys; read through for their reports.

While everyone else in the triathlon world prepares to go long at either Louisville or Sandusky in the coming weeks; Leah Halloran, Rob Thompson, and Mike Schaefer decided to go short at the Lorain Triathlon. Solid performances were put in by all three as Aussie won the male overall, Leah won the female overall, and Mike rounded out the men’s podium with a nice 3rd. SSSMST had people outside the race too; with Paul and Tammy Lentini waking up early to volunteer along with Jen Petkovsek.
An odd swim greeted the racers, but everyone took it in stride. Read through for the reports.

Saturday begins with the Men’s Only Rubber City Meltdown Crit in Akron, OH. This event has three categorized races: 1-3, 3-5, and Masters. I guess there is just no time for the ladies! CTC is also hosting their second Rev3 training day. This is your opportunity to come out and log hours on the course. If that doesn’t sound appealing, volunteers are always needed. The day culminates back in Akron with the 5k run and pub crawl. I can’t think of a better way to end a race.
On Sunday your only option is multisport. The Lorain Triathlon, yes it’s only a tri, the Buckeye Tri/Du and the Bellfaire JCB Biathlon are all on deck. So choose your venue and race your heart out in, hopefully, cooler conditions.
Saturday
- Akron Rubber City Meltdown Men’s only Crit
- CTC Rev 3 Training Day
- Akron 5k and Pub Crawl
Sunday
- Lorain Sprint/International Triathlon
- Great Buckeye Tri/Du
- Bellfaire JCB Biathlon
