The start is at Star market at 5:30, race time is 6:00 sharp on Sunday evening.

The entrance fee is 5.00, proceeds will go to prize money and printing costs for our other pro-bike propaganda and maybe some beer for those who want to participate in the bike polo afterward at the recreations center/health dept. parking lot on Oakwood.

The finish will be at House of Brews.

Maps will again be given out at the start of the race.

Check the link below for other cool stuff plus maybe some "secrets of the route"

I won my first alleycat race!! Yeah! The theme of the race was "where's the bike rack?" as we visited several places in town that had no racks. I had a bit of luck to win this as I'm not the fastest on the bike. It was very, very hot so it paid to keep moving.

Great food prepared by the ride director's wife was served after the race. Along with plenty of beer.

Next month's race will have a new route planner so no telling where we'll end up. I'll post an announcement when I get one.
