Congratulations to all the ladies who participated in the 2010

winner received a wheelset from Corsa Concepts. The other top ladies
will be receiving great prizes from Shimano and Ironclad. Thanks also

Ladies!!!

The Cat 4 Women's Series points total has been updated. This one is
going to be a tight race: Colleen Flaherty, Veloce still holds the
leads with 310 points (and is very close to upgrading- (I need to
check her totals). Sarah McCarthy, Popollolies is in 2nd place with
234 points. Beth Burns, Veloce is still in 3rd with 170 points (she's
now a Cat 3) while Tamara Metz, Veloce has 116 points and Kalli
Phillips has 102.

Some ladies have been asking me about how much Eugene Celebration will
be worth- only the GC will count toward the points. However, since it
is a multi day/stage race, it will be worth 1.5x the amount. So...
the winner will receive 150 points. With 250 points on the line with
Swan Island and Eugene Celebration- it's still open as to who will win
the Veloforma frame!!

Prizes for the overall will go 3 deep. (1st place Veloforma frame,
2nd and 3rd place still being worked out- but it will be worth it!)

I still need to get some shwag to the following people:

Sarah McCarthy, Poplollies
Zoe Roy, Sunnyside Sports
Sarah Max, BBnS

See you Saturday!
