Another Great Weekend

Sunday September 7, 2008 by Terri Gooch

in Maupin – I am uploading some photos now to Flickr from the weekend’s race – stay tuned for some great shots, wonderful scenery, and a peak at our fabulous racers!

Thanks again to everyone for racing and crewing. Thanks to our super duper volunteers this weekend; Gregg Geser – who should be a partner in Race Across Oregon, LLC he does so much to make our events happen. Lynn Harris, volunteer extraordinare, who always lends a hand to help out at our event in Maupin. Jane Nicolai, who is just an amazing human being and wonderful to be around!

Race Across Oregon would also like to thank our sponsors:
Co-Motion Cycles This year’s ultra cup winner and recipient of the Co-Motion Espresso Frameset is Glen Johnson.

Hammer Nutrition – we simply could not run our events with out them – and especially Steve Born, who has been a tireless supporter of George and I in both our racing lives and our events.

Detours Sports- whose killer line of bags makes giving our prizes so fun! DECIDE 2 RIDE and check them out – they make the best gear for the road!

We were lucky enough this year to have some wonderful prizes given to us in the spirit of racing:
Mike Olson of Olson’s Bicycles sponsored the first place prize to the 12 Hour winner Chip Keyes – a wonderful Spiuk helmet – George and I both got our helmets from Mike last year – and I LOVE the Spiuk stuff – it’s the best fitting helmet I’ve ever owned.

Mick Walsh donated a really cool pair of Smith sunglasses to the prize pile. It was awarded to Joanne Heilinger for putting in the slowest lap of the day! (JoAnne was also our 50+ 12 hour women’s winner)

Again, thank you to everyone who supports our events through the year – we couldn’t do it without you!

Best
Terri & George
