Come on out to PIR tonight for the final road race of the year! The

weather has been extraordianary this year, and promises to continue

that way tonight.



The women's race will start at 5:50 pm. Fred Meyer's Shannan Whitlach

leads the series, with 30 points, but at least four women are within

striking distance. The men's 4/5 race, at 6:00 pm, is even closer,

with six riders within 15 points of series leader, Dan Antonson.



Mavic-Fondriest rider Brad Gebhard appears to have the 6:30 pm cat 1-4

race locked up, with 42 points for the series, and a commanding 14

point lead over Bike n Hike's Brant Buchholz. But with four hot spots

and 20 points on the line for the hot spot winners, even before the

final sprint, this race could get interesting too!



Once again, volunteers will be coaching the cat 4/5 riders. A Fort

single speed frame will be given to each of the series winners

immediately after each race. Second place for each series is a $65

gift certificate at BicyclingHub.com. All series prizes will be

awarded immediately after each race.



See everyone at PIR tonight. We will be riding counter clockwise, so

numbers on the left.
