In studying the details, Jules had immense progress in a season that would have been all too easy to write off. But he fought like hell, made the most of every opportunity and is visibly a better racer and more experienced human because of the path he took the past 7 months. Chapeau @jhvankempen. We are incredibly proud to have you fly the colors and represent our team. #cantstopwontstop #alphagroovecx 📸 @thepenultimatestage

The course conditions and tight pack racing deep in to the field simply can’t be duplicated domestically. Jules is making the most of his opportunity and laying the valuable base for the future. #cantstopwontstop #alphagroovecx 📸 @anton_vos

It’s another step forward towards becoming one of the World’s elite. 📸 @thepenultimatestage #cantstopwontstop #alphagroovecx
The experience is invaluable. Something that can’t be duplicated anywhere else other than between the tape of the World’s biggest races, in the motherland of cyclocross. Today, Jules did just that. He took advantage of an opportunity. The number on a results sheet or the lack of any one person’s vindication means absolutely nothing in this process. The fact that he pushed himself mentally, physically and emotionally far outside of his limits is a testament to itself. 📸 @thepenultimatestage #cantstopwontstop #alphagroovecx
It’s #titaniumtuesday and as we come up on the t It’s #titaniumtuesday and as we come up on the time we’d normally be preparing for National Championships, we are reminded of this image of Turner’s Moots PsychloX RSL. We wrote Turner a message just before her first World Cup start at Jingle Cross in September. A reminder of our friend Andy who left us too soon but who’s impression will continue to be felt for years to come in our team. A reminder to take advantage of every day and every opportunity. And she did just that! That sharpie’d message lasted all season and still lives on as the bike has been adopted by Amelia, a lucky junior in our program that continues to be part of Andy’s legacy. 📸 @tobedetermined.cc / Daghan Perker #getbusylivin #cantstopwontstop #alphagroovecx

Something old, something new, something borrowed, Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue. When we started to brainstorm on this season’s kit, we were shocked to hear terms like “iconic”. But, we still wanted something just a bit more. @cobisan went to work to integrate the emerald hue in to the bibs, where once was grey. We borrowed the #GetBusyLivin mantra from Karen and Jett as a constant reminder of our friend Andy and his commitment to our program. @dnacycling printed multiple tests and sent them over to make sure the entire package was absolutely perfect. We couldn’t be happier with the newest take on what’s becoming a classic.
We are proud to announce that Jules van Kempen wil We are proud to announce that Jules van Kempen will be joining the team for the 2020-21 season! When we started the process of looking for the next young athlete to help develop, Jules grabbed our attention with 3 UCI Junior podiums over the first month of the season. He was the first rider that we contacted back in early November and even though his season came to an abrupt end, the more that we talked the more we knew he was the right fit. Jules will be joining the team in Colorado later this summer and we’re sure he’ll fit right in. We can’t wait to see what the future holds.

Our journey with Ross Ellwood as part of the team Our journey with Ross Ellwood as part of the team will continue for the 2020-21 season! His season started with a multitude of unknowns. New teammates, new equipment, new support structure, an expanded schedule...and ended in a way that no one would wish even on their biggest competitor. But in between the experiences helped mold Ross in to one of the future stars of the sport. The last few races of the season in Colorado and Oklahoma showed that Ross was using his drive and our tools to make measurable progress. His season abruptly ended with a broken collarbone 30 seconds after his National Championship campaign started and left us all wanting more for him. While Ross was still in the hospital, we penned a contract offer for the upcoming season. It was important for everyone involved to know that while the end of the chapter was less than storybook, we believed in Ross and continue to stand behind him. Our family is proud to have Ross be a part of it. 📸 @bruce_buckley #cantstopwontstop #alphagroovecx
This team was built in an effort to provide young This team was built in an effort to provide young riders a multi faceted support system in which they can realize their potential as they grow in to adults. Brannan has done just that. His preparation and self analysis are dialed. He has grown in to an exceptionally well spoken and communicative adult. He has used the tools we’ve provided to start to realize his potential. He knows what it takes to get to that top step on the podium and how to be a contributing member of a winning environment. His “development” chapter as some would call it is complete. Brannan has grown up in front of our eyes. As he finishes the first phase of his education and takes new steps in his personal life, he’ll continue his growth in a new, supportive environment. He’ll put his own spin on the model we’ve worked so hard to perfect. He’ll be an incredible asset to any team he may join in the future. We wish him all the success as he leaves our team and continues his journey towards becoming one of the World’s elite. Cheers Bud! 📸 #1 & 3 @bo.bickerstaff #2 @bruce_buckley #4 @cxhairs

Swipe Left.👈 Our season is complete. Not the wa Swipe Left.👈 Our season is complete. Not the way we expected. But, sometimes in sport you have to realize that certain things are out of your control and look towards the future because boy is it bright! This season, every one of our athletes had new experiences that resulted in personal growth. From the 8 World Cup starts, to a Continental Championship medal, to our first trip to the heart of cyclocross as a team. Beyond that there were breakout performances, many less tears of frustration, and a level of self-realization that will propel all of us to bigger and better things in the future. The most heartfelt “Thank You” to all of our partners for the support in chasing our dreams. To all of you that follow our adventures and cheer us on along the way. To the athletes for putting in the hard work and believing in the system we work so hard to perfect. To the support crew for the long hours and selfless work. 📸 @cxhairs & @bruce_buckley - #alphagroovecx #cantstopwontstop @alphabicycle @groovesubarusilverthorne #rideshimano @rideshimano #DNAcycling @dnacycling #psychloxrsl @mootscycles @pirelli_cycling #bryton @bryton.us @brytonsport #webuildbearings #madeinusa @chriskingbuzz #sinds1919 @lazersportna @coastdirect @supacaz @aj_vcgraphix #caffeinated @venturecoffeecompany

As we reflect on our season, this picture strikes As we reflect on our season, this picture strikes a chord. To those outside of Colorado, our junior program is often unseen. This year, we made a concerted effort to offer a high level of training, coaching and event support to a committed group of adolescent cyclists in order to help them grow within the sport. This resulted in some priceless experiences that we are now parlaying in our new “Devo” program for 2020 and beyond! This piece of the team is focused on providing younger, passionate racers even more tools to reach their goals. Just another way we work to grow the future of cyclocross. #cantstopwontstop #alphagroovecx 📸 @bruce_buckley
It’s never fair to end a promising season with a It’s never fair to end a promising season with an injury. In Baal 🇧🇪 on January 1st, Lauren’s season came to a screeching halt with less than a lap remaining in her European campaign. An impact with the metal barriers on the course’s iconic decent left her with a variety of fractures to her 2nd and 4th metacarpal that required surgery last week. This unfortunately resulted in her having to decline her World Championship Team selection. While the disappointment is obvious, we know that Lauren’s future won’t be defined by this setback. We heal, we plan, we get stronger 💪🏼! . #alphagroovecx #cantstopwontstop @alphabicycle @groovesubarusilverthorne #rideshimano @rideshimano #DNAcycling @dnacycling #psychloxrsl @mootscycles @pirelli_cycling #bryton @bryton.us @brytonsport #webuildbearings #madeinusa @chriskingbuzz #sinds1919 @lazersportna @coastdirect @supacaz @aj_vcgraphix #caffeinated @venturecoffeecompany
As individual as each athlete is, some times compa As individual as each athlete is, some times comparisons though not always fair give us a glimpse in to the future. A snap shot of both Brannan and Turner’s season at 19 years of age supplies just that. Jingle C1 B 36/55 - T 36/57 Pan Ams B 55% - T 58% of the field Ruts N Guts B 15/34 - T 14/28 Nats B 4th - T 5th Both narrowly missed the Worlds team. The similarities are uncanny. Including the drive you see in their eyes when you talk to them about their future in the sport. Yesterday in Otegem Belgium, Brannan finished 17th with most of Europe’s best crossers on the start line. Turner finished 18th and was the first rider to miss the lead lap. Brannan dealt with a similar level of dissatisfaction when he came to Europe at 19 years old. Nothing makes it any easier here except experience. Our process works. When riders believe in themselves, trust the team structure and we use our experiences together they will grow. In 5 seasons, Brannan went from finishing 3 laps down in his first Elite UCI race to his earning his second top 20 against the absolute best in World in the motherland of cyclocross. We have no doubt, the future will show us Turner’s potential as well. 📸 @cxhairs . #alphagroovecx #cantstopwontstop @alphabicycle @groovesubarusilverthorne #rideshimano @rideshimano #DNAcycling @dnacycling #psychloxrsl @mootscycles @pirelli_cycling #bryton @bryton.us @brytonsport #webuildbearings #madeinusa @chriskingbuzz #sinds1919 @lazersportna @coastdirect @supacaz @aj_vcgraphix #caffeinated @venturecoffeecompany

The CX Nats hangover is real and we are just begin The CX Nats hangover is real and we are just beginning to process it all. On Sunday, Turner left it all between the tape. She finished 5th. A solid result. Satisfied? Never. Only because we know there is more growth in her, not because of the number next to her name on a results sheet. The only one Turner has to answer to as to the pace of development is herself. No one else gets to measure her successes and failures. She knows that her efforts are propelling her in the right direction. Anyone that watches her can see her run training is making a difference. Her cadence is smoother. She is visibly more fit. But she wants more and we stand by her to offer anything in our power to help her achieve HER goals. 📸 @bruce_buckley . #alphagroovecx #cantstopwontstop @alphabicycle @groovesubarusilverthorne #rideshimano @rideshimano #DNAcycling @dnacycling #psychloxrsl @mootscycles @pirelli_cycling #bryton @bryton.us @brytonsport #webuildbearings #madeinusa @chriskingbuzz #sinds1919 @lazersportna @coastdirect @supacaz @aj_vcgraphix #caffeinated @venturecoffeecompany

All the hard work, precise planning and wanting in All the hard work, precise planning and wanting in the World can’t prepare you for the fact that some things are just beyond your control. Steady growth all season combined with some impressive performances as of late, led us to believe that multiple medals were possible this weekend. 15 seconds in to the today’s Collegiate National Championship Race, those dreams came to a screeching halt. A broken collarbone has taken those opportunities away from Ross. We now focus on healing, planning and getting stronger for the future. We have no doubt that this is just a small part of the journey that will be forgotten in the future. 📸 @bruce_buckley . #alphagroovecx #cantstopwontstop @alphabicycle @groovesubarusilverthorne #rideshimano @rideshimano #DNAcycling @dnacycling #psychloxrsl @mootscycles @pirelli_cycling #bryton @bryton.us @brytonsport #webuildbearings #madeinusa @chriskingbuzz #sinds1919 @lazersportna @coastdirect @supacaz @aj_vcgraphix #caffeinated @venturecoffeecompany
