We're down to one week until the Port of Hood River Criterium Series starts! Make the short trip (45 minutes from Portland) to the Gorge and rack up some coveted BAR points (nightly and series). Just $15 and most nights you can race again for only $10. Juniors are always $5.
We'll be giving away gas cards, Gorge Delights bars, GU, tubes, and more. 100th entry of the night is free. Carpool with your buddies and after the race check out some of Hood River's great restaurants.
Remember, the April 2nd race doubles as packet pick-up for the Cherry Blossom Classic. Avoid the lines on Friday and get checked in, and jump in for a leg-opening crit. Five races in one weekend and no added driving! If you haven't registered for the Classic, you can get in until April 1st. Go to www.cherryblossomclassic.com for all the details.
Categories for April 2nd are as follows:
5:30 PM - Category 4/5 and Juniors (20 minutes)
5:55 PM - Masters 40+ (25 minutes)
6:25 PM - Women (25 minutes)
6:55 PM - Men 1/2/3 (35 minutes)
Hope to see you in the Hood!
