Hello OBRA,
The 2nd annual Barton Park Circuit Race is next Sunday, April 17th. I hope you are planning on coming out to enjoy this awesome and challenging course, perfect for the climber and power climber or just a smart rider that knows how to allocate their resources. The one short climb on each lap, while steep, shouldn't hurt the smart rider too much. The finish line is around .5 miles from the top of the climb so use your red zones properly and slam that finish.
We can thank Belgium Bike/Bio Racer for some sweet Primes for your racing please. Visit Belgium Bikes website at:

For the winners of the Men's cat 1/2 and Women's cat 1/2/3 fields we have a high quality cycling kit, shorts and jersey.
For bell laps the Men's cat 3, Men's cat 4/5, Men's Master's (40+ 50+ prized together for the bell lap) 3/4/5, Women's 4/5 & Master's 3/4/5 (prized together for the bell lap) we have the following:
A high quality Bio Racer tech shirt and Bio Racer Bandanna.
Your bell lap will work as follows: The third time you cross the finish line, (that's the start of the third full lap), you'll get the bell. The next time across the finish line, the first racer in the above fields will win the prime.
And don't forget that each field will receive Bent Shovel Brewing prizes for the following finishing places:
1st place finish: Growler plus fill
2nd place finish: Growler fill, you pay for the growler(minimal cost)
3rd place finish: Pint
Plus, please visit Bent Shovel after your race to refuel as they'll have burgers, including veggie burgers plus pared items to make them taste even better available.
