Bicycle Racing is very popular in Oregon, but the city of Portland loves most
the fixed gear world of "Track Racing" on the Velodrome. Home of the legally
controversial and socially popular "fixed gear" this direct drive system
popularized by hipsters is put to it's fastest social test in the high speed
world of SCRATCH RACING.

America's National Champion in the Scratch Race, (see here) Jame Carney, is
coming to Portland, Tuesday Night, to the Alpenrose Velodrome to race in a local
cycling team's promotion of the Scratch race called "Mile Night Scratch Races."
(see announcement flyer here)

Promoted by a new Oregontalent in Scratch racing, (see here) twenty four year
old Jake Hansen, invited his forty year old hero to race in in the very event
Jake hopes to win himself atthis year's National Elite Track Championships later
this year in L.A. Carney came to give Jake a chance to practice beating himself.
Carney is a great Champion!

Racing starts at 6:30pm. The Elite race will be around 7:30pm.
