- OBRA - Coming up on TONIGHT - Monday, July 13th at Monday PIR:
- Introduction to Racing Clinics:
Never tried bicycle racing and always wanted to see what it was all about?
Want to learn about the basics and more? Come join us for a FREE quick and
concise clinic at 5:30 p.m. before the start of the novice race on the 2nd
Monday of each month: July 13 and August 10.

Clinics are organized using expert coaches and instructors from local clubs
and teams. We will cover group riding basics, assist with number pinning,
and walk you through a typical race. If time permits, we will teach tricks
for saving energy, riding smoothly, and safely maneuvering in the group.
Coaches will be available after the novice race to answer questions.

- TRY BIKE RACING:
Give bike racing a try this season at PIR on July 13th at this special
event! Check out our special events geared towards new riders! This season,
in partnership with OBRA, Monday Night PIR Series is offering a deal for
new racers. On July 13th, we will waive the one-day membership fee of $5.

Riders curious about racing should also see information about free clinics
offered on those dates. We are excited about these special events and look
forward to seeing new riders out at PIR!
