Seventh Season - Seizoen Zeven – Saison Sept – whether it’s English, Dutch or French this means we’ve pulled out even more resources to provide every competitor with a fighting chance to enjoy their cherished moments in the Red Zone. We’re returning to most of our favorite venues for the past few years (except the casualty of the California budget trauma – Candlestick State Rec. Area) reloaded and hoping Mr. “El Nino” will favor us with a little bit of early winter storms.

New Categories for 2009 – 2 additional categories have been added – with growth in these areas it’s time to recognize more athletes with Series competition of their own – U18 Women and Single Speed Category “B”. We’ve adjusted our start times for some categories and made different combinations in order to provide the best opportunities for racing – please check below for 2009 start times.

Neutral Service - Cannondale joins us for 2009 with a boatload of ‘cross bikes that will be featured in Pit #2 for Neutral Service for any and all competitors.

Ritchey returns with our Neutral wheels, SRAM returns with Chad and their talented Pit #1 crew - we want to make sure everyone has all the ammo they need to cross the finish line. Our Goal for 2009 – Zero DNF’s
