In loving memory of Maura (1964-2008), my best friend. This blog is a gift to our sons, Sam and JJ and to everyone who knew her. The entries are in no particular order but are tagged by year and subject. Most everyone know she raced bikes for a long time but did not really see her at races. As anyone can see, she is big on cycling, Hawaii, anything pink and most importantly, life.

1992 Racing Log
This is the first year Maura got serious with USCF racing. I think she did a couple more races in August (like the Manhattan Beach Grand Prix) that she didn't write down. She was encouraged by the Santa Fe Dam Time Trial result but given her biathlon/triathlon background, a time trial wasn't surprising. The race she was most proud of was the Mt Hamilton Road Race. We traveled up to San Jose so she can do this race from San Jose to Livermore that includes a 20-mile climb on Mt Hamilton. She finished 3rd place and decided that road racing, and not criteriums were her thing. Another 2nd place finish at the Dunnigan Hills Road Race pretty much set her on this path where she wants to do 30 races a year while working full time as Cedars Sinai Hospital.
