We will be having the Messilla Valley Circuit Race on Sunday, May 17th - at 9:00am. Registration will open at 8:30AM at the top of the hill of Messilla Valley Road - just near the intersection with Pentz Road. The "A" Category will be starting their event at 9:00AM, and the "B" Category going at 9:01AM. The number of laps will remain the same - 10 laps for each Category(sorry - I know, I'm the devil!). Again, sandbagging will not be allowed! (Sandbagging would be an "A" Category rider racing the Category "B" race).

The Messilla Valley Course is approximately 3.5 miles in length with about 300+
feet of climbing per lap. 10 laps = 35 miles and 3,000+ feet of climbing. We will
have two water containers at the Start/Finish Line.

For a map of the course, please click on the link below:

Again, most United States Cycling Federation rules apply to these races - you know, WEAR YOUR HELMET, don't ride like a nutcase, and all that good stuff. A mention about Tri Bars - You can have Tri Bars on your bicycle - BUT, you must NOT use them if you are in a pack or paceline! Normally, in a USCF race, you would not be allowed to have them on your bicycle - but I know many of us like them on our bicycles and use them for training. This isn't the World Championships - we do these Circuit Races for fun, fitness and practice - but please be very very reluctant in using the Tri Bars in a pack/paceline situation.

For those of you driving to the course, Spring Valley School is approximately
1-mile from the Start/Finish.......or you can park at Butte College and ride to
the start(great warm-up and cool-down, with a store along the way). Parking on
the course is discouraged.

Helmets are mandatory!!

Water bottle hand-ups will be solely dependent on volunteers, BUT I will be bringing a small ice chest with some water bottles again(ice water only).

***Word of Warning - It is suppose to be very HOT this Sunday, so bring a volunteer and an extra bottle of you got 'em!!!

Hope to see you out there!!

AND - THE BUTTE SERIES HILL CLIMB INFORMATION IS BELOW:

Hi Everyone! So, we are starting a NEW Hill Climb Series this next Spring - The Butte Hill Climb Time Trial Series in Spring 2009 will visit various parts of Butte County, with the climbs and dates below. There was a similar Series done years ago here in Chico - 1981 or 1982 - by Tom Devol and Jeff Smith, who owned Cyclesport bike shop at the time. And, of course, now there is that almost-famous Low Key Hillclimb Series in the Bay Area every fall. In any case, we decided to have our own and revive the old Hill Climb Series.......with a few route changes. Below is a list of the tentative events with dates. It should be mentioned that these dates could change depending upon other events going on. And, of course......the weather! Rain will NOT cancel - but snow and ice will.

Note: The Chico Hill Climb Time Trial Series will be back in the Fall/Winter of 2009 - starting in September! The Butte Series will go from January 1st, 2009 to May 31st, 2009. This Series follows a slow progression over 5 months - starting with the Category 3 climbs early to get your legs ready........and ending with the Category 1 climbs in May. This should help you take advantage of those springtime miles!! And, yes.....there will be a Summer Series as well.

How does it work??? Below are each of the 10 Hillclimbs in the Butte Hill Climb Time Trial Series. Each climb has been given a rank based upon feedback from some well-known riders in the area (and climbers in particular - yes, I know - everyone is different, but this is just a low-key have-fun series, so no big whoop). Category 1 climbs are the hardest, with Category 3 being.......let's not say easiest.......let's say........not quite as hard as Category 1! Points will be awarded to the top finishers in each Hill Climb TT - the folks with the most points at the end of the Series, wins the overall title in their respective categories........along with the coveted Butte County Hill Climb Champion Trophy.

EVERY competitor who starts and finishes an event receives an additonal 3 points PER event. Also, if you volunteer to be the STARTER for an event, you receive an additional 5 points for doing that task.

The Point Breakdown for placings is as follows:

Cat. 1 Climb = 30-26-24-22-20-18-16-14-12-10-8-6-4-2-1-1-1 (In other words, 1st place in a Cat. 1 TT gets 30 points, 2nd place gets 26 and on down the line - every person who competes in the event gets at least 1 point).

Cat. 2 Climb = 24-20-18-16-14-12-10-8-6-4-2-1-1-1(The winner of a Cat. 2 climb gets 24 points, 2nd place gets 20 points and on and on.)

Cat. 3 Climb = 20-16-14-12-10-8-6-4-2-1-1-1

And here are the Time Trial courses, the tentative dates, and their listed difficulty category:

Humboldt Road Time Trial - Jan. 1st - Cat. 3 - Definitely on January 1st. - COMPLETED!

Centerville to the Gravel - January 11 - Cat. 3 - COMPLETED!

Cherokee Time Trial - February 21 - Cat. 3 (Start at Coal Canyon Road @ Wheelock Rd. and go up 70, turn at Cherokee) - COMPLETED!

Cohasset to the Store - March 7 - Cat. 2 - COMPLETED!

Pentz Road - March 14 - Cat. 2 - COMPLETED!

Coutelenc TT - April 5 - Cat. 2 (Just stay on Coutelenc Road) - COMPLETED!

Vilas Road Time Trial - April 18 - Cat. 1 (From Nicalog to the end of Vilas) - COMPLETED!

Honey Run Road - May 10 - Cat. 1 - COMPLETED!

Forest Ranch to Lomo - May 16 - Cat. 1(starts at Forest Ranch Store; ends at entrance to Butte Meadows)

Lomo to Jonesville TT - May 24 - Cat. 1 (starts at Hwy. 32 at entrance to Butte Meadows; ends at the snowmobile parking lot)

(Yes, I have a Summer Series planned too!)

10 Climbs, approximately 18,000 feet of climbing in total, held over a 5-month period from January through May 2009. Consistency will be key in winning the Overall Series.

Participant Categories - the following categories will be offered for the Series event(see below) The winner in each category will receive the Butte Hill Climb Champion Trophy, along with Bragging Rights.........as well as any stuff we can get to give away as prizes:

Category "A" Men

Category "B" Men

Women's Category

Womens 50+ Category

Clydesdale Men (No no, I'm not gonna weigh you - just show up and tell me and I will give you a yes or no answer.....however, I'm looking for about 200 pound body weight or more)

Mens 50+ Category

Mens 60+ Category

As usual, sandbaggers are strongly discouraged ( A Sandbagger would be a Category "A" rider entering a Category "B" event). Also, if there's a lot of folks in one particular category, we may split those up into sub-categories, if needed. In turn, if nobody - or very few folks are in one category, we may eliminate it and add an additional category where the numbers allow it.

Although donations to put on these events are always very appreciated and accepted, this Series is FREE - so come on out and take advantage of some, or all, of these Time Trials in Spring 2009! Hope to see you out there - and I will have more details, maps and information as we get closer to the events.

Hi Everyone!! We had 25 competitors last night at the Tuesday Airport Criterium, and the riders were greeted with some pretty good conditions out there.....although there was a bit of a breeze blowing. Looks like we may be in for some very hot weather this weekend - be prepared at Sunday's Messilla Valley Circuit Race (suppose to be 102 degrees on Sunday)!

Thank you ALL for coming out to this one last night - we saw some great racing action out there! For some videos and photos of last night's event, please visit:

I would also like to thank Steve Vickery at the Madison Bear Garden for donating BEAR BUCKS for Prime Prizes for last night's Criterium - for every 1 Prime Point that was won, 1 Bear Buck was also given away!

AIRPORT CRITERIUM SERIES INFORMATION:

After the great turn-out at last year's Tuesday Night Chico Airport Criterium Series, we're going to be doing them again for 2009......but starting up a bit earlier this year. For those curious, the definition of "Criterium" is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criterium

This Series starts up next Tuesday, March 10th and will go through September 15th, 2009......just before our Chico Downtown Criterium on September 20th! Registration normally starts at 5:40pm - with the event starting at 6:00pm.

How does it work???

Okay, here are a few notes for this year's Airport "Crit" Series:

1. We will be using more than 1 course for the Crits this year......including throwing in some lefty-turn Crits to get a feel for those - and some Weekend Criteriums as well. For the time being, we'll be using our standard Tuesday Night righty-turn course starting/finishing at Convair Avenue - http://www.bikely.com/maps/bike-path/Chico-Airport-Tuesday-Night-Crit-Course

2. ALL riders must sign in this year - There will be a small table on the sidewalk at the Start/Finish location on Convair Avenue - just sign in at the table and you are good to go! Sign-ins start at 5:40pm - the racing action starts at 6:00pm. We usually end the event by 7pm, at the latest - many times earlier than that - to get home before it gets too dark outside. RAIN AND WET PAVEMENT WILL ALWAYS CANCEL THE CRITERIUMS! In addition, last year we had some tremendous smoke from the Humboldt Fire in this area......which, in turn, would also cancel the Criteriums due to hazardous air quality.

3. The Category "B" races normally go for 45 minutes PLUS 3 laps.........while the Category "A" races go for 50-60 minutes PLUS 3 laps. There can be anywhere from 1 to 15+ Primes in the Airport Criteriums......just depends on the mood of the Dictator.....er......I mean, Director. ;)

4. Helmets are MANDATORY! So, please....please.....wear your helmet! Please!!

5. All are welcome - you don't have to do the Series - just come on out and give this Criterium training/riding a shot! It's amazing what kind of workout you can get in during a 45 to 60 minute practice event.

6. Points are used to calculate the Overall Standings in the Series. The point breakdown is as follows: 7-5-4-3-2-1, with an additional 1 point being given to each participant at each event. So, 7 points goes to the winner, 5 points goes to 2nd place, 4 points goes to 3rd place and so on.........in addition to 1 more point just for doing the event. The rider with the MOST points at the end of the Series wins the Overall Title - and the Chico Airport Series Championship Trophy, plus whatever goodies we can give you. Also, Prime points will be given out during each of the Crits - these are just lap prizes......but in this case, the prizes are points. We will also be having some product Primes out there this year!

7. Last year, we had just two categories during the races - Category A and Category B. However, the Series itself has even more Trophy Categories, including:

Category "A" Men

Women's Category

Women's Masters 40+ Category

Category "B" Men

Men's Masters 40+ Category

Men's Masters 50+ Category

8. Although donations to put on these events are always very appreciated and accepted, this Series is FREE - so come on out and take advantage of some, or all, of these Criteriums in 2009!

9. Finally, remember - these Criterium events are essentially for practice and exercise - we have fun out there and get a great little workout in, and we get to work on some quality cycling skills. But, overall, they're no big whoop....no World Championship/Olympic medals or million dollar contracts on the line. So, with that in mind, just treat 'em as such - a good training event to try some new things, gain some good fitness.....and maybe even get into a "real" sanctioned Criterium at some point in time. Or not. Just have fun with it!! We'll have trophies and hopefully some prizes for the Series winners - and definitely loads of fun....and pain and suffering. ;) But remember - it's all in good fun!

Hope to see you out there!!

Colorado's Bicycle Safety Bill

This sounds like some revisions/additions to the Vehicle Code that California also needs to enact. The good news is more and more states are passing legislation to codify the three foot passing rule and other measures to protect cyclists. I particularly like the part allowing cyclists to ride two abreast unless "unreasonably impeding...traffic".

Ken A.

Colorado Governor Ritter plans to sign the Bicycle Safety Bill SB 148 in Colorado Springs tonight, May 11. SB 148 creates safe and common sense rules for bicycles and motor vehicles on public roads. The bill will give motorists more freedom to safely pass a bicyclist by allowing them to cross the centerline when safe to do so. By allowing three feet passing distance, it creates a safer environment on the road. The Bill also clarifies language that gives bicyclists the ability to ride as far right as is safe. Also on one-way roads with more than one lane, bicyclists may also ride as far left as is safe. Additionally, the bill clarifies that bicyclists may pass one another or ride side-by-side if they are not impeding the normal and reasonable movement of traffic. Finally, the language in the bill makes throwing an object towards a bicyclist a class two misdemeanor and driving towards a bicyclist in a dangerous manner a careless driving offense. Read Bill SB 148 in full text.

Anybody use, or know anybody who uses, size 650 tires? I bought four Kenda Kaliente road tires at the Sea Otter Festival and didn't notice until I got home that they sold me 650's by mistake. They're great tires--very light, fast, tough--just a wee bit small. Let me know if you can use them. I think some XS women's bikes may use them.

THE OMNIUM INFORMATION:

Stages of the 2009 Devil's Kick Omnium:

Saturday, May 9th - 7-Mile Lane 25-Mile Time Trial - 1st Stage of the Devil's Kick Omnium

Sunday, May 10th - Honey Run Road Uphill Time Trial - 2nd Stage of the Devil's Kick Omnium

Sunday, May 10th - Chico Airport LONG-course Criterium - Final Stage of the Devil's Kick Omnium

How does it work??? Okay, in this scenario, an Omnium is just a stage race using points rather than time - and you do not have to complete one stage in order to do the next stage. You garner points for each stage depending upon how you did in the stage.......and, again, in this particular case.........the MOST points wins(many Omniums reverse this and have the least amount of points winning). There WILL be a Category "A" and Category "B" - you must tell me at the start of your first stage which Category you are entering.......and no downgrades during the Omnium once you're in. Categories may be combined, changed or eliminated if not enough folks come out. Most USCF rules will apply to ALL stages - including WEAR YOUR HELMET, don't ride too much like a lunatic, and so on and so forth. Please read the section carefully at the bottom of this e-mail for all the rules pertaining to the Omnium. The 7-Mile Lane 25-Mile Time Trial - aero equipment WILL be allowed! And remember - the only reasons we're doing this Omnium is for fun and fitness......and maybe a little competitiveness too, but nothing over-the-top please! Ride safe, have fun, try something new and challenge yourself. Anyone doing any of the stages is automatically entered in the Omnium..........but consistency in the events will be key to winning the Overall. You can do 1, 2 or 3 stages - just whatever you feel up to doing!! So, come on out and give it a shot!!

The Point Breakdown for EACH stage:

Saturday, May 9th - 7-Mile Lane 25-Mile Time Trial:

(Yes, Aero equipment will be allowed for this event).

1st = 24 points

2nd = 20 points

3rd = 18 points

4th = 16 points

5th = 14 points

6th = 12 points

7th = 10 points

8th = 8 points

9th = 6 points

10th = 4 points

11th = 2 points

Everyone else = 1 point

Sunday, May 10th - Honey Run Road UPHILL Time Trial:

1st = 24 points

2nd = 20 points

3rd = 18 points

4th = 16 points

5th = 14 points

6th = 12 points

7th = 10 points

8th = 8 points

9th = 6 points

10th = 4 points

11th = 2 points

Everyone else = 1 point

Sunday, March 10th - Chico Airport LONG-course Criterium:

(NO - Prime Points DO NOT count towards the Omnium!!)

1st = 24 points (NOT to be added to the season-long point standings in the Criterium Series....those points are separate from the Omnium)

2nd = 20 points

3rd = 18 points

4th = 16 points

5th = 14 points

6th = 12 points

7th = 10 points

8th = 8 points

9th = 6 points

10th = 4 points

11th = 2 points

Everyone else = 1 point

RULES:

And Finally - ANY rider participating in ALL 3 Stages receives an additional 10 points.

Do you have to do all the stages in order to compete in the Omnium?? No - you can even do just one event and your points will still be calculated and counted in the overall. And REMEMBER - Safety come before bragging rights, so be careful!!!

As always, the Director reserves the right to DQ anyone deemed cheating, unsafe or unsportsmanlike(no worries - just be cool like always and all will be good!!).

Tie-Breaker - If, by chance, it comes down to a TIE after the last stage of the Omnium, the highest placed finisher(of the tied competitors) in the 7-Mile Lane 25-Mile Time Trial will be declared the Overall Winner of the Devil's Kick Omnium. After that, it will be the highest placed finisher in the Honey Run Road Time Trial.

AIRPORT CRITERIUM SERIES INFORMATION:

How does it work???

Okay, here are a few notes for this year's Airport "Crit" Series:

4. Helmets are MANDATORY! So, please....please.....wear your helmet! Please!!

7. Last year, we had just two categories during the races - Category A and Category B. However, the Series itself has even more Trophy Categories, including:

Category "A" Men

Women's Category

Women's Masters 40+ Category

Category "B" Men

Men's Masters 40+ Category

Men's Masters 50+ Category

8. Although donations to put on these events are always very appreciated and accepted, this Series is FREE - so come on out and take advantage of some, or all, of these Criteriums in 2009!

Hope to see you out there!!
