The 2009 Veloforma Norman Babcock Cat 4 Women's Series presented by Garmin heats up for summer this weekend with TWO big races:
 
Saturday, June 27  Swan Island Criterium
 
Sunday, June 28  Salem Fairview Circuit Race
 
Sunday’s circuit race will feature a post-race clinic and race analysis/Q&A by Tina Brubaker and Susan Peithman from the Veloforma team.  Listen for their announcement at the start line about the time and location of the clinic; it will be about 10-15 mintues after the finish of the cat 4 women’s race.  Get tips from the pros on what worked and what you can do better next time—as an individual rider and as a team.  This is a great chance to learn more about tactics and to get feedback on your racing.
 
There will be more fireworks in the women’s series next weekend.  The Firecracker Time Trial (Peoria), on the Fourth of July, is the next race in the series.  And on Sunday, July 5, at the Firecracker Criterium (Eugene), Jan Moss of Team Group Health will bring her race savvy to another post-race clinic.  Tactics will be different on this smaller, flatter course than at the circuit race, and Jan will share her insights on how the race plays out.
 
Bring your teammates, race hard, and learn how to race better!  Start your summer racing with a bang!
 
Please forward this message to your cat 4 teammates and to any women you know who are thinking about bike racing.
