The 7th annual *Desert Orthopedics* Road Race is scheduled for May 27th in
Bend *but we barely have anyone signed up to race* (we have more volunteers
than racers currently). I am hoping people are just waiting to see how
awesome the weather is going to be before committing and there will soon be
a rush of registrations coming. We have lots of prizes and $$ to give away
so I hope to see folks come out and race. All the details are on our website
but here are the
highlights again...

- Same great fun, fast and flat (but sometimes windy) circuit course
east of town although we have moved the finish to Arnold Market Rd. (see
maps).
- 3rd race in both the men's *Oregon Cup* and *Women's Prestige
Series* (leaders
get free entry)
- pre-register before May 26th at noon to save $$
- While there is no junior only field, any junior can race their
category for FREE courtesy of TFG Racing.
- *Equal cash payout* for men and women (always at *TFG Racing*!) along
with cool custom baseball hats courtesy of our awesome primary
sponsor *Desert
Orthopedics *
- Other prizes include beer from *10 Barrel Brewing
*, gift cards from *The HUB Cyclery
* and coffee from *Backporch Roasters
.*
- Podium presentation? Of course!
- We still need a few more volunteer drivers and some afternoon corner
marshals to make this a safe and fun race. Volunteers get a gift
card to *Pine
Mountain Sports * and a yummy lunch
from *New York City Sub Shop * and
if driving gas $$. Also you can either race for free or give your entry to
a loved one. Sign-up *here
