Hi Everyone! Just a reminder that we will be having the Friday Night Airport Criterium at 6pm & 7pm - 3-Place Prime Night (6 pts. to 1st place, 4 pts. to 2nd place, 2 pts. to 3rd place). Also, this will be a little fundraiser event for KZFR Radio - so, if you can donate a dollar or some change, that would be awesome!! All proceeds from this event will go to KZFR Radio - www.KZFR.org.

FRIDAY, August 21st - FRIDAY Night Airport Criterium - 6:00PM (As & Bs) & 7:00PM (Cs) - 3-Place Prime Night!!! Registration normally opens at 5:45pm on Convair avenue at the Airport - with the event starting promptly at 6:00pm. For the time being, we'll be using our standard Tuesday Night course starting/finishing at Convair Avenue - http://www.bikely.com/maps/bike-path/Chico-Airport-Tuesday-Night-Crit-Course . Category "A" riders will go for 50 Minutes PLUS 3 laps, while Category "B" riders will go for 45 Minutes PLUS 3 laps - Women's Category picked separately. Lots of Point Primes offered in this one!! Must sign in and wear a helmet in order to compete. RAIN OR WET PAVEMENT WILL CANCEL THIS EVENT. (Part of the 2009 Chico Airport Criterium Series!)

**** One Note About This FRIDAY Night's Airport Criterium - August 21st - 7:00PM - will also have a Category "C" race going off at 7:00PM. The "C" race will be 20 minutes + 3 laps. If you are intimidated by the Criterium and/or the speeds out there, this is the Category to get a feel for what's going on without the crazy speeds. No other Category races will be on the course - just Category "C" - so you can get used to the course, etc. The event MAY be mentored as well, depending upon whether ANY Category "A" or highly-ranked Category "B" riders(basically, any top 10 riders in the Current Standings in the "B" Category) are available to mentor. A mentor basically sits in with your group during the race, giving you basic pointers and helpful advice to keep you safe, skilled and sound during the event - and for future events. Mentors must meet with me prior to the event - so, if you would like to volunteer to be a Criterium Mentor, see me at the race on Friday Night or e-mail me prior to the Event - lorrod7@comcast.net .
