Subject: [OBRA Chat] Kruger's CX - Thanks!

Thanks to everyone who came out to the farm yesterday to race, cheer or
volunteer!

The weather was beautiful, the mud was abundant, we had a record turnout of
close to 650 racers (plus another 100+ kiddie and dog racers), and everyone
seemed to have a great time on and off the course.

Results of all races have been posted on the OBRA web site at
http://list.obra.org/events/19616/results

Also a big thanks to our title sponsor and our title sponsor Westend Bikes
and all our other great sponsors. And another shout to Don Kruger and the
folks at Kruger's Farm for the great venue!

Next year, we'll be back with more races at Kruger's Farm. Besides the
Kruger's Crossing Cyclocross Classic (Sun 11/18), the farm will again be the
backdrop next year of an all-new Kruger's Farm Relay Race (Sun 5/20) and the
5th edition of the Kruger's Kermesse Farm Crit (8/26).

And of course, I hope to see you all at our signature MTB race events: the
Portland Short Track Series (Mondays 6/4 through 7/30), the Oregon Short
Track XC State Championships (Sat 6/30) and the Six Hours of Mount Hood (Sun
7/1).

Make sure to mark your calendars and start training now!

Cheers,
~Kris

PS: A heads-up that I have three spots left for the Flanders-Roubaix Belgian
Classics bike tour I am organizing next spring.

It's a 12-day, fully-catered trip that includes watching 3 major spring
classsics (Tour of Flanders, Scheldeprijs and Paris-Roubaix), a bunch of
great rides around Flanders (and into the north of France and the
Netherlands), and more cobblestone riding than you could ever wish for,
including all the cobblestone climbs of the Tour of Flanders, the Kemmelberg
(from Gent-Wevelgem fame), and the last 100K of Paris-Roubaix (with a
victory lap inside the giant velodrome).

Besides some awesome riding and live bike race spectating, you will get a
unique chance to discover Belgium's rich culture, history, cities,
gastronomy, and beer (oh, yeah!), all in the good company of locals,
including my brother Jan (who will be our local bike guide).

Anyway, if you are interested in joining a fun group of spring classics
aficionados (all of them fellow OBRA racers), just shoot me an email and
I'll send you a PDF brochure that has all the details and a ton of photos
from the first edition earlier this year that will make you salivate.
