Awards Party Time
Friday evening January 29th brings our first ever exclusive Junior Awards Party at Westside Cycling. The fun starts at 6:00 p.m. If you're a junior or know one, make sure to attend for some great off the bike fun.
Both events feature awards for 2009 BAR/BAT, BCR/BCT, BCLTT and State CX medals. Please note that Senior Awards will not be available the Junior Party and Junior Awards will not be available at the senior party. BAR/BAR and BCR/BCT Awards will be sorted by CLUB. One representative from each club will be responsible for picking up and distributing awards to their club members. |

ACA Junior Needs Help
Skyler earned a spot on the USA Cycling team which will travel to Czechoslovakia later this month to pit their skills against racers from around the world. After placing 3rd at the USA Junior Cyclocross Nationals, Skyler recently returned from the Belgium Eurocross Camp where he came in 7th against a large field of the toughest European juniors.
Earlier this summer, Skyler proved his capabilities by helping his team win the 24-hours of Finale, a prominent mountain bike race in Italy.
Please help one of our up and coming local racers represent our country by making a donation to the Black Sheep Junior Cycling's Worlds Fund for Skyler. |
CX Promoters Meeting
There will be a scheduling meeting and general discussion for cyclocross promoters on Saturday February 13th. We're still working on a location. If you have any preferences, please make sure they are available and send an email to execdir@americancycling.org |
Annual Meeting
The 2009 annual meeting took place on Sunday, December 6th at Natural Grocers / Vitamin Cottage in Lakewood. Thanks to all those who attended despite some cold and snowy weather. The meeting was very successful with a lot of productive discussion. You can find the 2010 Board members and their contact info here on the ACA site under Board of Directors.
