Meadors, Ivan C

Corben-Huntair (Emerald Velo Bicycle Club) is providing an opportunity

for

Any interested cyclists to partake in a FREE pre-race training event

(the day before the first Banana Belt road race).



Feb 28, 2004 (Saturday morning)

Start: 9.00am

Distance: 20-30 miles

Ride co-ordinator: Ivan Meadors & Corben-Huntair team members

Location: River City Bicycles; MLK Blvd., Portland

Route: west to Council Crest/Fairmount Loop

Terrain: one climb, then a 3 mile rolling loop around the Council Crest

area

Purpose/description: Road-race pre-ride; an "on the road training

session" to learn/practice/acknowledge some basic ideas, concepts,

skills and tips related to bike racing. Plan to spend 1~1.5 hours during

this FREE session. Geared mostly towards category 4/5 (the expectation

is that category 1/2/3 riders already know the basics). This ride is

open to all interested OBRA members.



Ps: if there are experienced racers that would like to show up and

provide their valued knowledge to new cyclists, please feel free to come

to the ride.
