Last year finding out information about XC races sometimes seemed like

searching for a needle in a hay stack. Some promoters were very good

and others were not so good. I understand that every one is busy and

sometimes getting the word out seems to be the last thing or people

assume that the website is enough. Plus, promoters are trying to keep

cost down so the advertising budget is usually the first to be cut. As

part of the OBRA mailing list we are some of the most informed riders,

but people that don't currently belong to OBRA, for the most part have

no way to find out about races.

So I propose a challenge to all racers. one that will promote racing in

the state and hopefully increase the amount of people racing. We will

or have all ready received fliers for the Mudslinger and will be

receiving fliers for other races in the mail. Take these fliers and

make 10 copies, which should cost no more than $2.00. Post these copies

at your local bike shops and other place where interested people will

see them. Don't just post the local races, but all races in the state.

If everyone were able to do this, I think we would see a difference in

participation.
