OBRA: OBRA Chat: Hell of the Cascades?

Tim Schauer

2008-03-14

Okay my appetite it up for details now.... I have heard no details other than here on obra-chat, but if it is anything like the Skull Hollow Roubaix from a few years ago, it sounds epic and one I'll target. The rides/races where equipment choices are tradeoffs between gearing vs durability vs weight vs traction are the most fun. Where success is a strategic blend of fitness and smartz! Please share the details soon, so we can all get ready!!

Someone did explain it once already , what I remembered was that , number one, It is a road race and number two, due to permiting limitations , there was to be a 'race' field and a 'ride' field with pretty substantial field size caps. From the way that he described it, i'm sure it would be a deal at twice the price! count me in!

I've heard it's an AWESOME route of mythic proportions -
perhaps the most inspiring course in the state of Oregon -
ever - But that's just heresy and rumor buzz around my
neck of the woods - perhaps the race organizer will chime
in...

I know this is way off in the future, but I see a one-day
race in July called "Hell of the Cascades". I've heard
nothing about it, is this a road race? XC race? Anybody
got info?

Mt. Hood Cycling Classic

2008-03-13

Judy is correct in her description. This event will be like nothing ever
run in the Northwest before. That sick and twisted promoter Jeff Lorenzen
has the most amazing course lined up. Let's just say there will be a lot of
debate not only on what type of gearing to use but also what type of bike to
use. More info to come this month. Stay tuned.
