Subject: [OBRA Chat] 127 Juniors at Hillsboro today!
The 2013 OBRA Junior & High School Cyclocross Series is complete after today. Another great year and what a way to cap it off with a record breaking turn out. 127 is a modern day record for Juniors in OBRA. Rumor has it some Junior Road Stage race way back in the day may have had more.
Next Saturday at Edgefield State Championships we will be having the 2013 JCS Awards. All Juniors please come. The grand prizes are lottery based so all you have to do is race in at least on JCS race this year and you will get a lottery ticket. We have great awards from our generous sponsors:
Castelli: Jerseys for all age category winners, and the winning High School team.
Sellwood Cycle Repair/Kona: A 24” complete Kona bike, A u-pick the size Kona Frame, and three $ 100 gift certificates.
Rolf Prima Wheel Systems: Two sets of Rolf Wheels, and a $ 300 gift certificate for a wheel set (Thanks Mark Bradley)
Hammer Nutrition: In addition to providing Gels and Heed at all the races (including the State Champs) Hammer has thrown in a bunch of great products to the Awards. Hammer also made us some JCS water bottles that we have been giving out. More at the Awards.
OBRA: OBRA supplies the cool string back packs we have been giving out, and the awesome laser cut medals. Thank you OBRA.
Please thank these sponsors and show them your patronage. They care a lot about Juniors and creating a great experience for all of you. Let them know you appreciate it.
Thanks you to all the race promoters who have hosted us this year. They have opened their arms to all you Juniors. Giving you the prime mid day race slot. Giving you $ 5 entry. All these promoters are putting on other races outside the JCS. Go to their races and thank them. Bring your family and friends.
Last and certainly not least, You have to thank the OBRA officials who have donated their lunch time to officiate your race, plus put in all the afterhours scoring, managing the web page work, etc, etc.
Special thanks to Erik Tonkin for his support from Day one and all the generosity he provides. I also want to thank Brad Ross for setting the trend of a Junior Only race. Well done Brad.
Final Series Results should be out by Tuesday or Wednesday. Check them and let me know if you see any errors. You can find them here: http://www.obra.org/junior_cyclocross_series/index.html
