The Alpenrose Challenge is coming up soon, the weekend after this coming
weekend. This is your chance to race against other track riders from around
the country and to compete in front of a spectator crowd or to come out and
watch. If you are planning on riding make sure that you are registered
before the evening session on 7/18 as space in the mass start events may be
limited. Let me know if you need any info or assistance.
