Thursday Night Racing Ladies!

Come on ladies, come join me racing tonight in Richmond at the Thursday Nighters! We need more women out racing, and we really need some dEVa presence!

I will be leaving Main and Ontario at 515 at the latest. Claire TT'd me out to the race in time for last week!

Its a super fun course, flat and fast! And getting out there on time is not only a great warm up but part of the race for us Cat 4's!

oh and not that you need more convincing but you should know that it's been common to win bags of licorice for the prime. This is what last week's winner did with her prize.

Below is more info.

See you out there!

Team Coastal is proud to present a criterium race series held every Thursday night from May through August. The races are centrally located in Richmond and offer great competition for all levels of competitive cyclists. The 1.8 km flat course will provide an excellent opportunity for up and coming racers to train and refine their racing skills.

Notification of Race Cancellation Please Note If it is raining the races will be cancelled for that evening. We will update the web site home page by about 4pm on race day if we decide to cancel.

Wet roads are OK but we don't want our volunteers standing in the rain. Check the link below for current local weather... look for the Richmond area. Lots of color means lots of rain and the Thursday Night Challenge race is probably cancelled. Local Weather Radar
