Included below is Jeremy's announcement. If you could pass it onto those
interested, it would be much appreciated. I know everyone is busy riding
cyclocross right now (myself included), but there must be a few track
types who've never been up here.
Cheers,
Gord.

Among the races featured are
# Mass start and sprint events
# Points races - point sprints every 10 laps
# Miss-n-outs - sprints every 2nd lap, last place rider eliminated # Scratch

track, located inside the Harry Jerome Sports Centre near SFU, featuring
hair-raising 47 degree corners and lots of opportunities for dramatic
