March 22-23, 2003
Saturday: Road Race
NEW COURSE!! (Just like the European spring classics!)
This new course located 8 miles south of Corvallis features an 11-mile loop with a 1.5-mile climb and 3 miles of gravel per lap. The gravel section is firm packed with intermittent potholes. Competitors responsible for their own wheels, i.e.: wheels in, wheels out. There will be 1 wheel car per group, which will stay with the main pack. If you flat and do not have spares, you are out of luck. It is also strongly recommended that you carry a spare tube and CO2/pump in the event you are behind the wheel car. OSU cycling will not be responsible for damaged equipment. That said, all of you who revel in the tough man conditions so revered in the NW better buck up and show what you are made of! The meek need not apply! Come see what you are made of! As Erik Tonkin might say "do it the hard way"!
