Team S&M and the Cross Crusade present The Alpenrose 'Cross Clinics Where? The Alpenrose Dairy is located at 6149 SW Shattuck Rd., Portland, OR 97221. When? This year's dates are September 6, 13, 20, and 27--all Wednesdays! Clinics start at 6:30pm sharp and end about 7:30pm. Registration is open from 6-6:20pm at Alpenrose Dairy. Please don't be late as daylight is precious. How much? Each clinic costs $5.00 paid in cash or with a check made out to "Team S&M". Or, pre-register for the whole series: send a check made with a standard OBRA release form to Sellwood Cycle Repair at 7639 SE Milwaukie Ave., Portland, OR 97202. BUT WAIT! Juniors (age 13-18) pay just $2.00, and Kids (age 12 & under) pay nothing! Why bother with pre-registration? Each time you show up, your name gets put in the hat for the grand-prize drawing at the last clinic. However, if you pre-register for all four nights, you get your name in the hat not four times but five times! What a gimmick! So, what's the prize? Stay tuned! And yes, you must be present to win. Why? Hone your 'cross skills with some of the top local 'crossers and most experienced racers in the Pacific Northwest. Get measured practice first so you can train properly later. Socialize with your brethren. Etc. What more? Please contact Erik Tonkin via email at tonkin@sellwoodcycle.com with any questions. (He's happy to talk and has, in fact, been fielding clinic-related questions since March!) You may also call Sellwood Cycle Repair at 503-233-9392. Please note: Erik will be out of town from 8/11 to 8/21, so be please be patient. More info about the clinics will be posted on www.sellwoodcycle.com as the dates get closer. There you'll find out more about the coaches and volunteers, detailed information about proper cyclocross technique, and...more on that grand prize. |
