Twin Rivers Classic

          For seven years the Twin Rivers Cycling Club produced a race =

that many riders in the NW classified as one of the most "fun" events =

they attended. The NAIA World Series now occupies the Memorial Day =

weekend slot, and Lewiston/Clarkston simply can't accommodate another =

major event on this weekend. Our club had a meeting this evening and we =

are considering bringing back the event as a Labor Day weekend race in =

2002. As in the past, we would have a $10,000 minimum cash prize and =

$5,000 in primes; and would hope to be even larger. We would use the =

same prologue, time trial, and criterium courses as in the past. The =

final road race would be polyglot of past races with the pro/1/2 riders =

probably doing a variation of the 1998 course of 107 miles including =

climbs: Winchester, Webb Ridge, and the Old Spiral Highway.



          The bottom line: Will NW racers turn out for a well-crafted =

major event this late in the season?



          Let me know.
