Lyle Reidy and crew put on another fine Crocodile Rock mountain bike race out at Perry State Park. This years event doubled as the 2011 Kansas State MTB Championships and top finishers would qualify for a trip to the 2011 USA Cycling Mountain Bike Cross Country National Championships on July 14-17 in Sun Valley, IdahoHot and humid weather, which is very typical for this time of year, greeted the 140 riders on race morning as they attempted to be earn a State Championship and qualify for Nationals. The approaching storm clouds did little to reduce the temps and the only savior was to find shade. Luckily the 6 mile course had plenty of shade and offered some "fast and flowy" trails to keep the heat in check.
Midwest Cycling's Ryan Feagan escaped the flooding Mighty MO and made the trip from Iowa pay off with by taking the overall win on the day completing 4 laps in 1:38. Cow Town Cycling's Damian Almanza took the crown of "Fastest Kansas Man" and became the Kansas State MTB Champion with a time of
