Just wanted to say that from my vantage point this weekend, the race weekend again went very well. Heard a lot of compliments from riders and volunteers. First time I was involved all three days. Gotta give those like Todd, Mike, Don and all the others that have lived this race for weeks on end not to mention 24 hours a day this weekend. Congrats and thanks for making it a big success folks. ...Continue Reading

hi Everyone, Last evening was a great night for a ride.  I thought our turnout was a little light compared to our normal numbers.  We had 37 members show up and no guests.  These 37 members rode a combined distance of 615 miles. Tom Hotaling’s group rode option 3 although Tom had an unexpected flat about 3 miles into the loop and had to leave to get the flat replaced.  The positive side was that since he has been publishing the routes on the web site, everyone had route maps and made it th ...Continue Reading

If you've attended to an OCC ride within the last two weeks, then you've likely already heard my appeal for volunteers for Race Weekend.  It's now crunch time, and we're still looking for road marshals, pace car drivers and ...Continue Reading

Another fantastic night for the Time Trial! Sunny skies, temps in the mid-80s and a nice 8 mph NW.   Again, giving the TTers a nice push up the slopes of the first half of the course.  Only eight riders rolled to the start today. I guess a lot of people were still recovering from the Fourth of July weekend. We did have two more new riders try out the course!The fastest rider of the night was Gordy Pynn who ripped through the course with a 26:34 (24.16 mph).   The fastest woman was Alisa Rosenbaum wh ...Continue Reading
