We’re all set for the first CX race of the season and the first in the
Grand Prix Erik Tonkin. It looks like a great weekend for ‘cross. We wanted
to put out a few reminders about this coming event.

- REGISTRATION – Online pre-registration for the race closes TODAY 8/30
at 10:00pm. The online GPET Series Pass sales will also end at the same
time. You will be able to purchase both at the race on Saturday.
- *DAY OF RACE REGISTRATION - Registration** *opens at 8:00am and closes
15 minutes before each race. Please schedule enough time for registration,
especially if you still have to purchase an OBRA license.
- OBRA MEMBERSHIP CARD - BRING YOUR OBRA MEMBERSHIP CARD! This will be
required to register. If you forget it, you will need to buy a one day
license.
- LOCATION - The race will be held in *VANCOUVER, WA at David Douglas
Park*. Check the flier for detailed directions.
- NO ALCOHOL allowed at the city Park. We’ll have all the beer you need
at Ninkrossi (Sept.28th).
- PARKING - There is no parking allowed along Garrison, you will be
towed. If the main lots fill up, you can park in the Garrison Square lot, a
few blocks south. Please stay off all ball fields.
- TEAM TENTS - We will have a team tent area designated along the north
parking area (see map). Please follow parking attendant’s instructions.

After the first race in the series, call-ups will be based
on accumulated points (See the GPET flier for details).

be good for all GPET races and the Cross Crusade races. Bring your
2013 OBRA card for
registration.
- SERIES POINTS – There will be no points transfer for upgrades this
year, so choose your category wisely.
- RACE COURSE – This will be the same version as last year’s course, a
little easier for the first CX race of the year. The BIG run-up will be
there Oct. 26th!
