What's new, what's more, what's the same?

This season we're looking for quality, not quantity. We're racing five races instead of six, lining you up nicely for the first race of that big series we have here in town. Cross Crusade I think?

First race is September 6 and we'll be racing every Tuesday through October 4.

For those of you who are more interested in the food and drink options we have Gigantic back pouring beers and quite possibly the best pizza in town being made fresh. Tastebud will have their mobile wood-fired pizza rig fired up refilling us all after our races. Why not bring the family out to watch you riding around in goofy clothes? You could show them what you're wasting their future tuition dollars on.

How about a party to kick things off? Elevator Cafe & Commons will be hosting us on September 2 (The official kick-off of cyclocross) from 5pm to 8pm. They're located at 1033 SE Main (at 11th) and they'll be sponsoring the races as well, making sure that you can get up Wednesday to get to work.

As always we need to thank our sponsors for making everything possible. I'm going to list them now and we'll be bringing you more info about them throughout the series:
The Athletic
Stages
Portland Bicycle Studio
Rapha
Elevator Cafe & Commons
Shimano
Portland Design Works
Abus
Gigantic Brewing Company
