Cannondale Coconut Cup #4 - Markham Park - Sunrise, FL 1-24-10: The Coconut Cup series traveled to Markham park for the 4th round and the first race after the new year break. Riders were greeted with tough but fun 6.8 mile loop that has seen many upgrades since our last visit. Many of the wooden structures have been replaced along with a lot of dirt work made the course roll very nicely but it still kept the Markham flavor of being one of the most technical courses in this part of the country. Weather was as you would expect in South Florida this time of year, perfect. Many thanks to all of our sponsors and especially to Lee's Bicycle and Locksmith Shop for providing all of the swag to the riders. Thanks as well to "The Usual Suspects" and the Mountain Bike Patrol who did an outstanding job as usual in shaping up the course and helping with the event.
