This Saturday is the 7th (and likely final) running of the Desert
Orthopedics Bend Don't Brake Road Race in
Bend! Pre-reg numbers have improved a bunch and we are forging ahead.
Weather forecast looks gorgeous with sunny skies, light winds and a high of
80 degrees.

All the details are on our website
but here are a few
last minute reminders/ updates:

- If you pre-registered just check in at registration (Desert
Orthopedics tent) to let us know you are there but no forms to fill out or
sign.
- You can register on-line at OBRA up to noon
TOMORROW for $30 or sign-up on site race day for $40. If signing up day of,
make sure to bring your OBRA card.
- Numbers will go on the *RIGHT* and back.
- Please bring spare wheels for your race. If we get enough for each
race, wheels will be neutral otherwise it is wheels in, wheels out.
- Make note on website of parking/registration area and the start line
which is 1.7 miles away.
- Note the finish line is about 1 mile beyond last year's. It is a lap
circuit race so everyone will see the finish line multiple times before the
final sprint.
- We have some great prizes including custom BDB hats, ca$h, coffee from
Backporch Coffee along with HUB Cyclery and Pine Mountain GCs to give to
the top 3 finishers from every race so stick around for awards if you are
podium bound.
- *We have had a few volunteer cancellations and desperately need a few
flaggers in the afternoon.* See the sign-up sheet here
.
You will receive lunch and you or your loved one can race for free.

Hope to see you out racing in Bend Saturday!
