The 8th Annual Eric Kautzky (EK) Memorial Track Race at Alpenrose
Velodrome, in Portland, Oregon will be held on Saturday, May 3. The EK

Northwest. Eric Kautzky lost his life in a bicycle-motor vehicle accident
in June of 2005. As a teacher and athletic trainer, Eric was very involved
in many students’ lives at Tigard High School. Proceeds from the event go
to the Eric Kautzky Memorial Scholarship Fund. To date the event has
donated over $12,000 to Eric's fund. The EK race offers the first omniums
