Hi Chad -

My vote is for option #2.

Option #2
3 Stages (TT, RR, Crit)
Starts Friday Afternoon
Price: $75

Which RR will it be? The Cooper Spur or Mt Hood Meadows/Road 44?

My vote may not count though(?) - I'm still recovering from a hit and run
(car vs me/my bike) but hoping to be in good condition to race by June 4.

Thanks,
Amy

Women!!!

Dear CAT 3/4 Women,

It is our deepest desire to provide you the best event possible with what
resources we have. That said it has been brought to my attention that many
of you have a very difficult time attending a 4 day stage race. We do not
have the ability to run a dual stage day for the Mt. Hood Cycling Classic
due to the incredibly tough TT we run. Besides it is long and tough enough
to warrant it's own day. So here is what I am going to offer you. We can
either keep the format the same with event starting on Thursday afternoon
and containing 2 road races, a TT, and a Crit or we can drop stage #1 and
start you in the afternoon Friday with the most amazing TT in the country
and the event will be a TT, Road Race, and Crit. Both the Road Race and
Crit are two of the top courses in the country (the last year's pro
teams words not mine). Come take a stab at beating Jeanie Longo's TT time
from last year ;)

So being the true American I am I would like to put these two options to a
vote. Pleaes reply to me by Monday 9:00 a.m. and let me know what option
you find to be the better formula. I will also drop the price of the event
accordingly for the 3 stage option. The most votes wins. Send this out to
all your teams and all your friends. I want to hear from all of you!

Option #1
4 Stages (RR, TT, RR, Crit)
Starts Thursday Afternoon
Price: $100

Option #2
3 Stages (TT, RR, Crit)
Starts Friday Afternoon
Price: $75

Sincerely,
Chad
