SWICA notes are sent at irregular intervals to about 1000 cycling geeks
in the Northwest and Intermountain West but mostly folks from Southwest
Idaho and the nearby area. Nothing about the information in here is
guaranteed accurate, though I'll try and get things right. If you would
like your personal e-mail removed from the SWICA notes distribution list
hit reply and ask. SWICA Notes are intended to be used to share
information on cycling events (races/clinics/charity rides/area club
information of general interest and related items) and not for selling
bike gear. Decisions on whether to forward content received are based
on the subjective determinations of SWICA's manager and list maintainer
and whether I get to it. If you have something you want distributed or
any complaints hit reply and have at it.
