Come On now it's the first race of the year and a classic event the pie is

symbolic and alot of us are very happy to get one if at all it's too early

in the season to be worried about payouts just my two cents. Need payouts

California has some races for you. Or better yet the Aussie New Zealand

season is in full swing.

Subject: [OBRA Chat] Racing For Pies?

Hello OBRA,



   I am usually not one to complain about payouts at bike races because I

do race for fun, however the Cherry Pie Road Race just bugs me. I have

heard the past couple years it is the biggest road race of the year in

reguards to attendance, yet all you get for placing is a CHERRY PIE??? You

train all winter, and if you place all you get is a pie? No one else as a

problem with this?



   What do other people think of this? I know a couple weeks ago there was

some talk about prize lists and payouts at races. Why do so many people

show up especially people from out of state to race for Pies?



   Maybe OBRA people just like racing for pies, and in order to increase

summer race attendence promoters should drop cash prizes and give away

pies!



   I do want to thank the promoter for putting on such a great event, and

taking the time out the their schedule to put on the event, I would just

like to see you do better then donated pies as your prize list.
