This is a disappointment

One of our favorite races was called off due to property change.
It was a nice race, fast and rolly.

Rome Around Forced to Cancel
Thursday, February 1st, 2007

One of WORS perennial favorites, the Rome Around, has received a mortal blow. Race organizers have learned that the lands upon which their race course was situated have been sold and that the new owners have denied the race access. After checking out several alternatives, race director, Tim Tenpas announced that he has run out of options and must cancel the event.



WORS would like to thank Tim, his wife Sue, and their great staff for their years of service to the mountain bike community. WORS is working on an event to replace the void left by the Rome Around’s loss and should have an announcement very soon.


For more information, contact wors@wors.org.

That sucks that it is no longer, I would hate it if my favorite races were no more.
