Hormann, Douglas J

You're not the only one Luciano. I was wondering the same thing. Can someone explain the organization of cyclocross vs. other OBRA events so we can understand the cost difference. I know there's insurance, etc. to be paid; is it at a different rate for cyclocross events.?

Maybe off topic but why are the Junior cross races so expensive with the

tremendous turnout for these events promoters would encourage junior also

known as future racers by not making racing cost prohibitive. I could be

alone here but after bike shopping and race fees it is quite a leap for an

eight to ten race season. I think my main concern is the future of Oregon

racing if the juniors programs are not somehow subsidized. Just a thought.
