your BLIND DATE next week...

You have stared at that grainy internet pic long enough. The matchmaker robot puts you at 83% compatibility, I mean, it could be worse. Your equipment is just sitting there gathering dust and becoming outdated, anyway. What the hell. At least you'll get a dinner out of it. On Wednesday, September 7th, wiggle into something tight and join us at Alpenrose Dairy for the 8th season of...the 21st Ave Bicycles BLIND DATE at the DAIRY! 21st Ave Bicycles will have the crew on hand to make sure your gear is in check. Castelli is offering series leader jerseys to keep the winners looking sharp.The Vegan Caterer will be serving delicious, conscientious, and inexpensive meals so you can show your sensitive and pragmatic side. Stumptown Coffee is bringing cases of cold brew and fresh beans to keep you on point.The Swift Racing team will be hosting a FREE, no commitment ladies only clinic (details to follow) to make sure you have all the right moves. DJ Luciano and our blend of LED, metal halide, high pressure sodium, and good ol' halogen lights will set the mood to romance...and our talented and committed OBRA officiating staff will tell you how you look. Preregister for the series ($80) and score a limited run Castelli/Blind Date cycling cap, on the way from Italy mid month. Details available on the computer innernet at crossseries.com. We work hard to keep the overhead low so we can offer the most accessible series possible. Nothing better than a cheap date, so prereg is $16 and on site is $20. It's the year 2000 all over again. New for this season (see course map) we have a two-way pit. Well, it's kinda one and a half way, but it's way better than before. No more 1.5 mile jogs to get a wheel change! Feel free to swing by the night before the race, we'll have most of the course laid out and i'll be climbing around on rooftops aiming lights. Yours, Tony and Joe
