CXhairs.com interviews team director extraordinaire Kris Auer |
|
"For the final installment of our coaches interview series, we get the opportunity to pick the brain of Athlete Development Group and Charm City Cycling boss Kris Auer. Along with coaching several top East Coast cyclocrossers, Kris is also an accomplished racer. His one request to me in doing this interview was “make me sound cool.” If you have ever seen Kris or his black-and-blue C3 cadre at a race, you know this really isn’t an issue. Kris and C3 exude coolness. Case in point: late this past season he outfitted his squad in Karate Kid-inspired skinsuits and still had the most badass looking team on the block."Read the rest of the article here. |

C3's Schempf and Auer win MABRA Cross Titles |
|
Conshohocken, PA, USA: Looking at the final standings of the 2008 BikeReg.com MABRAcross Series, one might thing that the MABRA organizers had offered a two-for-one coupon. Nearly every champion doubled-up in some fashion, proving that the BikeReg.com MABRAcross has “two” much talent.
Not content with merely doubling up, Wes Schempf and his C3-Sollay.com pulled off a double-double in Mid Atlantic Elite Men’s racing this year. Schempf led the team to a 1-2 finish in the Elite Men’s season standings, with teammate Michael Gallagher backing him up. In the Elite 35+ Masters Category, team director Kris Auer racked up another championship for the C3-Sollay.com team. C3-Sollay missed out on another double-double (a quadruple-double?) as last year’s champion, Mark Gwadz of DCMTB/City Bikes, took second place from Auer’s teammate, Chris Nystrom. In the process, Gwadz nearly beat Auer for the championship. Both Auer and Gwadz also took credit for organizing two of the east’s largest cyclocross races this year, with Auer promoting the MAC Charm City Cyclocross and Gwadz promoting the BikeReg.com MABRAcross DCCX in Washington DC, just a few hundred meters from where President Abraham Lincoln drafted the Emancipation Proclamation in 1862. |

December 17, 2008; Conshohocken, PA, USA: 2008 saw the tenth, and most successful, year of the MAC Powered by SRAM Cyclocross Series. With an expanded schedule, this year’s MAC covered more ground, paid more prize money and offered more UCI points than the national series of most countries.
It was also an extremely successful year for the C3-Sollay.com team. Team sponsor Sollay.com is a medical company specializing in cold laser pain relief, which is ironic because its namesake team spent the season putting the hurt on its competitors; perhaps explaining why the team’s colors are black and blue. C3-Sollay.com won the overall Team Championship and three individual championships, including both the Men’s and Women’s Elite Titles. Wes Schempf and “Bad Andy” Wulfkuhle swept the top two places in the Elite Men’s division, while super-rookie Laura Van Gilder clinched the Women’s season title before finishing fourth in the U.S. National Championships. Van Gilder and Elizabeth Harlow also swept the top two positions in the Women’s 35+ division for the team. |
