Hi Gang! We're super excited the day is finally upon us for the 2nd edition of Zaandercross. We've been putting the finishing touches on the course and we think Z2 is gonna be even better than last year. The weather looks promising for 'cross and we may even get to find out what happens when sand and mud mix. A few reminders:

- Preregister if you can and it will help keep the lines to a minimum. You still need to check in, though. https://www.athletepath.com/zaandercross/2013-09-21

-Parking: There should be plenty but be aware the far end lots do have a brief portion of one-way traffic due to a new addition to the course. We will have people helping with the flow of cars. Please be kind and patient (if need be). Be nice to our volunteers and complain to me if you need to.

-Food: We will have vendors with waffles and "chicken bowls". Eat up.

-Raffle: Don't forget you're entry fee goes to benefit p:ear but also you can score that sweet Speedvagen cyclcoross stem(and other cool prizes) by entering our Zaanderaffle which also helps out the p:ear crew. Buy tickets online with prereg or at registration day of the race. We'll announce the winners on Sunday. You don't have to be present to win. Do it.

-Finally: Race hard, have fun. Leave it all out there but do remember to save a little bit for Sunday's great race at Fazio Farm. Sounds like its going to be a blast

-Oh yeah, no beer at Z2, its a public park and we don't want to lose this venue. Thanks. See you tomorrow.
