It's time to break out the Track Tandem !

I think it is a real shame that the fixie category is not there for this
year, as it is a category that often draws people that might not come out
for a normal road race; these people may later get into more traditional
racing, so it is a great recruiting ground for our sport.

Hey tandem folks!

Heather and I, being tandem racers ourselves, opted to put in a tandem
field.

It forced us to eliminate the well-attended fixed gear field.

We took lots of heat for eliminating the fixies.

We currently only have one tandem team registered, but I know we'll get
at least one more from our EWEB team.

If you would like to have the opportunity to do tandem races in the
future, please come and show your support.

However, if you only like racing your tandem in time trials, we would
opt to put the fixies back in for next year.

We'd like to see 5-10 tandems to make this fly.

Thanks!

Jim and Heather
