Update on Covers: Below is a picture of the first two crank covers out of the molds, they turned out pretty well, we just need to tweak a couple more things in the process. Another mold will be produced in the next couple of weeks bring the total to three. Flat sheet of carbon is used for making the small chain ring cover, molds in progress to make more of these as well.
On another note. Meeting up with the Men of Steel Racing team this weekend for our spring training camp. It will be great riding with the team and getting outside for one of the first times of the year.
This blog is intended to keep people updated during the year on how Robbie and Glen Alden's racing season is progressing. We are Racing for the Men of Steel Racing Team based in Ft. Wayne, Indiana for the 2012 race season.
