With under 22 hours left before registration is closed - you still have time to get a team together!

Registration will close Saturday @ noon and I will produce a start list shortly after. Remember NO DAY OF REGISTRATION.

I was out last night checking on the course and it looks great. The weather for Sunday will be perfect - High of 77 with the winds coming out of the north! (Great for the finish!)

In regards to family members - Pioneer Park has a great play area for kids and you can take a short 2 minute walk into Brownsville if you get hungry and need something to eat.

If you have questions about registration and or about the race in general, please email me @ kl_graham@comcast.net or call me @ 541-905-9698.

Thanks.

O2 Endurance Performance Coaching

2013-05-16

If you're putting together a squad for the TTT we would like to invite you to do your preparations at the new O2 Endurance Training Center.Our 14 station Computrainer Multi-Rider system offers a unique Team Time Trial mode that allows you to measure power, analyze your pedal stroke efficiency, rehearse your race plan with an authentic road feel and optimize your team's performance in real time. If you're going to compete, why not use the best tools available to prepare?
OBRA Members and Teams can reserve the center for 60min, 90min or 2hr blocks of time. All are welcome.
>From the Computrainer website: http://www.computrainer.com/multirider_fun.htmTeam Time Trial Racing
This is "Where the Road Meets the Lab". Team Racing simulates the authentic, dynamic feeling of riding in a pack and adds a new tactical element. Supports two- 4-man rider teams racing head-to-head. The winning team can be selected using fastest average time, fastest 2nd rider, fastest 3rd rider or fastest 4th rider. A 'pie chart clock' shows the leading team's instantaneous time advantage. *We can offer 3-7 person teams as well as up to 4 teams at one time for racing so challenge other squads to come out and race.
