Subject: FLCC> TVC circuit race--juniors

The TVC circuit race in Binghamton this Sunday includes junior age groups
10-12, 13-14, and 15-18.  They're all scheduled to race 10 laps/16 mi.  I
asked Jeff Poulin if the younger kids could have a shorter race, as even at
nationals the 10-12's only race 15K.  Jeff said he could do that.

My son Adam, who's 11, is thinking of going.  There are few enough races for
the younger jrs., so I hope others will consider it too.

The race flyer is at

http://tiogavelo.com/docs/2007TVCCat4-5CircuitRace.pdf

10-12 yr. olds may race on any type of bike; entry on bikereg.com is only $5
for jrs., plus a one-day license if they don't have an annual license.

FLCCer's -

For those of you who came up to Syracuse this weekend, or are just
interested (and didn't see the posting on the OCC listserv), here are some
links to photos of the time trial from the Syracuse Race weekend.

I ran out of battery, memory, and light just as the Cat1s were starting at
8:00 PM......

Enjoy!

Everyone,

    The ESG Qualifier is Sunday, consisting of a 2.2mi uphill TT at 9am and a points race immediately after (start ~10:00).  At 11:30 the Cat 4-5 Circuit race starts for men, Women Cat 4s, and Juniors.

    Margaret, Norm, and I need about 5 volunteers, mostly from 8:45-11:30.  We need 2-3 marshals for the TT from 9:00-10:00 and 2 persons to run the registration desk from 9:00-11:15.

    It is pretty easy compared to the BCR, and if you volunteer (or sacrifice a loved one for the cause) you get free entry into the Circuit Race.  :-)

Please email me… Thank-you!

Thursday @ 369, it's a long one. 20 miles. Rode out the ten miles, there are a few dings in the shoulder, one down tree top that fills it at one point. New paint, I will not put out a turnaround cone, gas prices and my truck are not playing well together!

I'm not sure how we stand on volunteers, Dawn?

The following week @ 79 may have to be swapped , they are doing bridge repairs. Will keep you posted.

Thanks,

Paul

p.s. Anybody have a job opening? I have to get out of the golf maintenance business........

Hello,

I have a FSA Carbon Team Crankset 48/34 that I bought to build up on a cross bike.  I no longer plan on building the bike up so I am looking to sell them.  I never rode them and they were lightly used by the previously owner.  Excellent condition.  Paid $200 looking for $125 or best offer.

FSA Team Issue Carbon Crankset: $125 or best offer.

Thanks,

Jason

Actually it was after one practice lap of the ESG course.  And i was
misquoted, I didn't say I won the fight.
No do I know who's bandanna they found.
Clearly, too much Ovaltine is a problem for me.  I believe it should be
banned from the sport before others are found wandering the street
aimlessly.

Not for what I had in mind. I need enough power for a sp camera, 2 - 3
monitors, 2 tape decks. At least enough power for the camera, 1
monitor and a tape deck. If anyone has a gas generator , that would
work if there isn't a electric hook up.

This is actually ONE site, two races same day.

TVC has a battery pack that should run that camera for awhile..... Paul Palmer has it for running the PC / Printer for TTS. If we limit to runnning it for the finishes, I think it would be plenty.
