For all those of you that spent $8 at McDonald on the way home from CrossWord in Canby yesterday: I think my dinner money went further at the WBW party. It was only a mile or two from the venue, the spicy pork sausage for us meat-eaters was delicious (and they had a mountain of vegan stuff as well), as were the farro salad, baked squash, and roasted peppers & onions picked right off the field that was not 10 yards from the picnic tables. Then there was the homemade apple pie made with apples from a local apple orchard. Someone else will have to address the quality (and quantity) of the beer...

I think I ate enough to more than make up for my three races at Canby. Kudos to Patrick, WBW, and the farm folks on the great after-party!

Hello OBRA,

By now you've registered for the Crossword Challenge this Saturday at Pat's Acres Racing Complex. What? You haven't? Get it done. This is a fantastic course without the lovely Cross Crusade crowds and it's a perfect opportunity to get your lungs and legs warmed up for the following day of racing at PIR.

New for this year is an after party that Western BIkeworks is hosting at a nearby farm (less than a mile and a half a way). There'll be signs directing cars and a volunteer directing you where to park when you arrive. Check out the official event page here:

5:00pm till pretty late. (If you show up a little early, that's okay too... we'll have appetizers).

$7.00 gets you food.
$5.00 gets you beer.
$10.00 gets you food and beer.
Cash only.

Er...hem, yes these are suggested donations. Be kind and help us out.

We have meat eater and veggie options available. Taste the best certified organic produce in the metro area from Simington Gardens.

Other details:
Plenty of parking. No dogs please. (This is a certified, production-grade, organic farm). As such, don't pee outside, that's why we have a porta-john. We'll have some cover in case it rains, but the more the merrier, i.e. bring your team tents (it might rain!)

Any questions? Direct them to (patrickc@velotech.com)

It's going to be a fantastic day of racing, why don't you come and party with us as well?
