I have the most wonderful FC1 Fully Carbon Racing Felt Racing bike you have ever seen. It has full record carbon compentents and has brand new never been on the road ES Mavic Edtion ,Wheels on it. It is a perfect 54 inch size frame and wlll fit most 5"11 inch people It has less than a 1000 miles on it and it in perfect condition. I am stuck in the middle of remodeing my house and have to udload something. The wife says the bike has to go...I have 6300 dollars in it but will let it go for a missly 4300....2000 off what I have into the bike. If you are a serious racer...this bike will take you to the top of your game.
No, I havent let go of my training bike....lol. Happy hunting.

> Central Oregon Cross Racers,
>
> The WebCyclery Thrilla Cross Series starts tomorrow night!
>
> Here's a few details and some suggestions...
>
> Please get there early as we expect there to be a big turnout and the
> registration table will be especially busy the night of the first race. Dickie G
> and Felicia will open the registration table will for business at 4:45PM the
> night of the race. Even if you are pre-registered you will still need to check
> in and pick up your race number that we will issue to you. (We will be providing
> you with a paper race number (& safety pins) to use for the entire series. You
> will use this same number each week in place of your usual OBRA #, so don't
> throw it away or lose it, please.)
>
> Races are $12 each, or all 4 races for $40. OBRA license is required, and can be
> obtained at registration. One day license is $5, or a cross license good for the
> rest of the year is $10.
>
> If you have not already signed up for the full series you can do so today or
> tomorrow at WebCyclery, or the night of the first race at race registration.
> CASH OR CHECK ONLY PLEASE.
>
> Fields are Mens A, Mens B, Masters (40+), and Women. All starting within minutes
> of 6PM.
>
> The water truck will be on the course at 4PM, and we'll finish setting the
> course as soon as they're done. You should be able to start warming up and
> pre-riding the course by 5PM. Get registered before then so that you're not
> spending your warm-up and practice time standing in line.
>
> For those of you that are driving, PLEASE PARK ON THE STREET, and not in the
> Cascade Lakes parking lot.
>
> Course location and directions/details are posted on WebCyclery.com

>
> This coming Sunday we are staging the second race of the Kruger's Kermesse Farm
> Crit Series at Kruger's Farm on Sauvies Island. We hope to see you out there,
> either as a racer or as a spectator. Here are a couple updates I thought you
> might be interested in:
>
> 1) Course Update & weather forecast:
> According to the latest forecast, the weather on Sunday will be sunny with highs
> in the mid-80s, so expect a dry and very fast course. Our plan is to reverse the
> direction of the course and have racers go clockwise, so it will be a bit
> different from last race. As for tire choice, most racers at the first race used
> dry-course cyclocross tires and that's probably still the best all-round choice,
> especially to carry your speed through some of the loose corners.
>
> 2) Pre-riding:
> If you missed out on the first race and like to pre-ride the course, your best
> bet is to come out early on Sunday morning to get a couple laps in. The course
> will be all set up by 9am.
>
> 3) Registration & Bib Numbers:
> Unless you have pre-registered for the whole series, you will have to register
> at the race. Registration opens at 9:00am and closes 15 minutes before each
> race. Please schedule enough time for registration, especially if you still have
> to purchase an OBRA license.
>
> 4) Bib Numbers:
> We will use special series bib numbers, which you will receive at registration,
> so please leave your OBRA road bib at home. If you raced the first race, make
> sure to bring your Kermesse bib number with you. If you plan to race a different
> category than last time, you will get a new bib number, since every category has
> its own unique number series. And finally, per Candi's request, a friendly
> reminder to make sure that your bib number is pinned on your left side in a
> readable manner.
>
> 5) Wanted: Volunteers!
> We are still in dire need of volunteers to help out during the race, especially
> at registration and lap counting. If you like to volunteer - and get to race for
> free - just reply to this e-mail.
>
> 6) Prizes & Primes:
> The series points for the first race have been posted Our first grand raffle
> prize for race # 1 - a super sweet Rapha cycling jersey - goes to Jared Granger.
> This Sunday we'll up the ante with more than 40 primes - courtesy of our
> sponsors Nossa Familia, Clif Bar and Laurelwood Brewing - which will be randomly
> raffled off throughout the day.
>
> 6) Live music, gourmet food, beer, wine and FREE Coffee!
> As usual, we will have the all the off-course features lined up to make this a
> great day for racers and spectators alike. And yes, throughout the morning the
> Kruger's Farm farm store will be brewing free Nossa Familia coffee, thanks to
> the generous support of Nossa Familia owner Augusto Carneiro.
>
> By the way: Augusto is a longtime OBRA racer who - for years now - has been
> supporting local bike races and bike events, small and large. This fall (Nov
> 7-17th), he is also organizing a personalized, fully-catered mountain bike tour
> to his hometown in Brazil for a small group of 12-15 people. It sounds like
> quite the unique experience and a ton of fun. For more details, check out his
> web site at http://www.mtbikebrazil.com.
>
> That's it. If you have any questions, check our web site or just shoot me an
> e-mail. We are looking forward to seeing you all on Sunday at the farm.
