cleveland has a pretty rich track history, particularly on the
domestic 6-day circuit. for those who are unaware, fast track cycling
(fasttrackcycling.org) has been making great strides in getting a
permanent velodrome and olympic training center put right here in
cleveland. the site is slated for our slavic village neighborhood,
and for more information you can visit the fast track website.

for their first major fundraiser, fast track is conducting a raffle to
which i am donating a cicli polito track frame built for the winner. tickets are
$20, and the date for the springtime raffle and big party will be
announced soon on their website. the fast track contact is anna
gerodette.

in the meantime, every thursday at now that's class (11213 detroit
ave, cleveland) your first beer (any beer) is free if you ride your
bike to the bar. the first thursday of the month i also do a raffle,
drawn at midnight, and this coming thursday the winner will receive a
multi-pack of 3 tickets into fast track's raffle. rules are simple,
each drink purchased gets you a raffle ticket, or tickets are
available for $5 without any alcohol accompaniment.

so if you're in cleveland and want to hang with the bottom of the barrel this week for
a good cause, stop on down!
