The fourth race of the series is this Saturday at Battle creek in Salem

Hmm... Cross Bikes and a retired Golf course. That should be fun!

Series standings after the third race last week at Camp Harlow should be up
soon at this link http://app.obra.org/events/15399/results We had our lowest
turnout of the year last week. There was a state wide PSAT test that
redirected a few kids, and then Geri Bossen had car trouble and that took
out a large group - Get that Van repaired Gerri! Despite the smaller turn
out it was great racing, and our first true muddy race this season in
Oregon. The Juniors did great. Smiling faces everywhere. It was really
pouring and as a result I did not get any good photos. Sorry.

Series Status:
Kolben Preble continues his domination of the 17-18 group.
Trevor Schauer is holding onto his lead in the 15-16 boys series, but things
are tightening up with Keith Fawcett's back to back wins.
Sam Rosenburg has won all three races in the Boys 13-14 group, but Michel
Stevens is right there making him earn it.
There is no clear favorite in the Boys 10-13 group with a different winner
each week. Riley Albright came over from Bend and took out the win in the
Psycho Mud last week.
No changes in the Girls 17-18 and 15-16 last week (must have been PSAT
testing).
Samantha Schauer claimed her first win in the rain and Mud and has moved up
to third in the series for Girls 13-14.
Haley Wilson continued her winning way for her third win in a row in the
Girls 10-12. Rumor is that this Saturday Haley is testing for her advanced
Brown Belt (Karate) and may leave a door open for someone else in to step
up.

This week Corvallis Cyclery is providing Specialized Water bottles for the
first 30 kids to register. Thanks Corvallis Cyclery!

See you all Saturday. Bicycleattorney.com will put on a great event. Don't
miss it!
