Freyensee, James P

Bummer to hear about the decreased number of MTB races this year and the
good chance there will be no more races at Skibowl next year, which
means less racing in great Oregon weather. I had a great time doing the
Oregon MTB scene last year. Sorry I wasn't there to help out with the
numbers; there are just some things in my life I wanted to address this
year and I thought it would be best to address them by taking a race
hiatus.

Subject: [OBRA Chat] Why weren't you at SkiBowl today to race?

The weather was great, those of us non-pros did some 'cross dismounts to
get through snow patches and you can't beat a pretty lady handing out
water at an aide station...

So, where were you? This definitely had to be the smallest Sport Men
19-39 field I have ever seen; maybe less than 10 or 11. I was totally
expecting the parking lot to be full!

For what it's worth, there was only 1 race at SkiBowl this year as
opposed to the 3 last year. With Oakridge FTF cancelled this year, the
number of races is definitely down. It's two-thirds of the way through
July and I'll be hanging up the OBRA mtb plate.

PS -- come out to Short Track. We've got just a couple races left!
