Mike, since I’ve been doing the TT series for many many years I’m going to share a couple of thoughts. First, thanks for directing/managing everything that goes into running the event. If not for TTs I probably wouldn’t race at all. So again thanks.

 The other matter is this: No one over 55 or 60 has the remotest chance of winning any of the prize money (unless of course there is really low turnout. On the distaff side you have a couple freaks of nature, Susan and Mindy which, of course, weakens my point). Year after year some of the older riders are your most loyal participants. So please consider some incentive for those of us who like it or not got old.  Gordon Sargent

All,

 

The final event of the TT series is  Sunday, August 24.  Registration  closes at 5:00 on Saturday.  The 35 km option has been added for this event.  This will be a great warm-up for the state championship in September. The payout will be a little different.  For this event – we will pay out to 5 places ($75, $50, $25, $25, $25) for both men and women.  If you have already signed up for the 17 km and you want to change the 35  – send me an email.  Everyone will need to pick up a new number for this event.  Please come by the registration tent to pick up your number. 

 

Randy Corcoran is putting on the Paula Higgins Memorial Record Challenge (and the NM State Championship) this year. It will be on Sept. 4 (https://www.bikereg.com/recordchallenge ).  The medals for the TT series will be awarded at this event.
