This Saturday, Sept 16th, Rebound/Tireless Velo will be hosting the GPCM in race #3, Zaaldercross! We are super excited about this year's version and the day is shaping up to be a great one for racing, spectating, and hanging at the great park at Alderbrook. Tons for the family and kids and we promise no flooded sections of course this year. Speaking of the course..........its really looking good with some new sections and twists thrown in. For more info on the course or anything Z6 related just go to our race website: zaaldercross.com
For the time crunched here's the bullets:

WHERE: Alderbrook Park, Brush Prairie , WA
A note on the park. Please be respectful of the grounds and do not trespass on the 2 private residences on site. Follow the rules and be nice. Alderbrook has a strict NO DOGS policy. Sorry. We nearly lost this venue last year so please help us keep it rolling.

WHEN: Saturday September 16. Raciing starts 8:30am

REGISTRATION: Register at http://obra.org/events/25681/register or day of up until 15mins before your race start. Please bring your OBRA membership card and season and one day licenses are available

PARKING: There's tons of parking available in the main lot. No parking anywhere else. Last year Alderbrook charged $5 for parking. We hate parking fees so we're paying for it for you........just buy a raffle ticket and we'll call it even

TENTS: Lots of room for tents in the main grass bowl. Plan ahead its a little bit of a schlep from the parking lot. You can drop off your tent at the circle near registration but don't leave your car there.

REFRESHMENTS: Alderbrook will have their great kitchen fully open with some tasty fare for hungry racers. Their taps(8 of them) will be providing you all the post race beers you can drink in moderation.

MECH SUPPORT: Neutral mechanical support provided by Velofix

PRIZES: You did hear that men's and women's Singlespeed winners will be receiving a free tattoo session with one of PDX's hottest artists, Alice Kendall. I'm excited to see who gets these! Other cat winners will receive wicked Klean Kanteen Z6 growlers as well as cash for the elites and swag for the juniors and beginners.

RAFFLE: Tons of great stuff to win as in years past from SRAM, Zipp, Horst, Gigantic Brewing. Tickets are $5 or 5/$20. Please help us support p:ear again this year. Go to http://www.zaaldercross.com/zaalderaffle/
