Awards Banquet and Meals:
Promoters are planning an “awards” dinner on Friday night. The Road Race staging area isn’t conducive to an awards ceremony, so RR and Criterium awards will be together on Friday night. There will be an additional group meal, probably lunch, stay tuned for more information. If you will be traveling with a spouse or companion, they will be able to participate for a nominal fee for both events. Both hotels serve complimentary breakfast.
Accommmodations:
Event promoters are providing 2 nights accommodations (2 athletes per room) for racers coming from out of state. For questions about accommodations, please contact Ann Hortman:
