WOW---76 degree's and a great race at Picketts Charge yesterday.

Thanks to Chandra and Robin and th whole Sunnyside crew for a great Event.
Team S and M took the overall Team Title from Capitol Subaru who finished
second with Pistis finishing a strong third for the series.

Thanks to our title sponsor Rivercity Bicycles of Portland for the great
Support in making this possible and to all of you who came out to a race in
the series.

Thanks to Clif Bar for all of the Clif blocks this season also----they are
very much appreciated.

The State Championships are this Sunday at the Return on the Jedi----Luke
Skywalker will be in attendance as will all of you favorite Star Wars
Characters-----not really but the thought crosses my mind.

ALso the State Championships for Short Track are this Saturday also down
south--so break out the camping gear and get away as this course is epic and
beautiful.

More racing to come at Portland Short Track---*tonight* and for all of July
so get up to portland on each Monday. Ski Bowl on 7/20 for a classic big
course and the day before at the Gorge Games Super D in Hood River-on
7/19-----rumor has it that its not a big travel course and all of you XC
guys will be right at home.

IF you did place and did not make it to Picketts---I have your series
champion jersey and you can send me the postage to mail you the plaque or I
do go to Corvallis and Eugene alot to drop it off at a bike shop to pick up.

Thanks and have fun on your bike and bring a friend to the races

Mike
