Hey Everybody,

Just in time for the holidays, I have finished my third cycling documentary entitled, "The Anthem". It features only three races: The Cascade Classic, The FSA Gran Prix and Single Speed Cyclocross Worlds. It was all shot during the 2008 season.

The 2008 Cascade Classic was won by Olympic and World Champion Kristin Armstrong and Levi Leipheimer. The footage features exclusive interviews with Armstrong and Bissell's Tom Zirbel, rides in the Garmin and Bissell team cars and a ride in Levi's team car in the time trial.

The FSA GP footage includes interviews with Emile Abraham and Phil "Bilko" Stephens, as well as Grant Boursaw's keirin win and the battle in the Madison between Adrian Hegyvary/Dan Harm and Emile Abraham/Kenny Williams.

The Single Speed Cyclocross Worlds segment features footage from the qualifying time trial, the night-time alley cat race and sunday's grand finale.

The DVD is $20 and I highly recommend it. It is available only online at http://www.dirtymoose.com. We are arranging a premiere event sometime in January or February on the UW campus, benefitting the Husky Cycling Club. Information will be leaked as that event becomes more solid.

Happy Holidays!
