Overall
The team competition seems firmly in control by Bend Endurance Academy. Who
will round out the top 3?

There are some close races for the individual series. Remember you get to
throw out your two worst races. It could come down to tie breakers for the
Men 13-14 between Ryder Uetrecht and Max Ritzow. Likewise in the Men 15-16
with Joe Lukens and Davis Melkonian.
Will Gabrielle Lehnert come back and snatch the overall in the Women 13-14
or can Ava Lilley pull off a great upset? The Women 17-18 will be a battle
between Aubrey Whitty, Emma Kane, and Ivy Taylor. Anyone of these three
could pull off the win.
Looking forward to some great racing in Bend this weekend. Bring your
costume for Sunday.

SWAG & Medals for the top 5 in each age/gender category. Don't miss it. Corn
Cross has a nice covered area. No worries about rain!
Our awesome leaders Jerseys are provided by Castelli. Thanks to their
generosity we are able to provide leader jerseys by race throughout the
season. It has been super cool to be able to pick out the leaders in each
category, and watch some of the racers dominate and hold their jersey, while
in other categories the jersey has changed many hands. Who will clam the
overall series Jersey for 2015? Come to Bend to find out.
Thank you OBRA for your support of this Series. Thanks to the race promoters
who generously welcomed the JCS to their events in 2015 (Corn Cross,
Zaaldercross, Heiser Farms, Cross Crusade, and Psycho Cross), and thanks to
Bill Warburton, Steven Beardsley, and Joel Fletcher, for their extra work to
help the series function. And of course many thanks to the OBRA
administrators and officials who put in the extra effort to crank out the
results (Candi, Melanie, Misty, Kenji). And a special thanks to Scott
Willson for all his work behind the scenes to automate the scoring to enable
almost real time updates to individual and team standings.
Alright see everyone in Bend for the finale!
