Week 9 Course Map

4 more weeks!

We had a break from the summer weather last week, including a break from the typical dry and dusty loose-over-hard trail surfaces thanks to the short rain shower at the beginning of the evening. This week's weather however looks to be hot and sunny once again.

Week 8 Course Map

Only five more races this summer!

This week we return to the usual start/finish area layout along with a forecasted return to some slightly cooler temperatures. There's a chance of rain on Tuesday as well, so maybe the dust will be knocked back a bit.

Short Track Week 7

The start/finish area setup seemed to work well last week so this week's course features a similar setup.

A reminder that we have added a Women's C category to the races. The C race takes the place of the Women's B race at 5:15, and the B race moves to 6:40pm alongside the Women A racers and Singlespeeds.

On that note, it appears many of our singlespeeders have been deciding to race in the Men's B race the last couple weeks, so if that's your jam be prepared to race with them in that time slot instead.

Week 5 Cours Map

First, I'd like to say thank you to everybody who's been coming out to race these first four weeks. The weather has been great and the racing has been tight!

Below you will find this week's course map. The forecast calls for what will probably be the hottest evening yet, so come prepared with plenty of water.

Reviewing attendance and how the races have been playing out over the last few weeks, it has been decided that we should reshuffle the race schedule a bit. Primarily, we will be adding a Women's C race and moving the Women's B race.

Here's a draft schedule, changes in bold:
5pm--Kid's race
5:15pm--Women's C and Juniors (Staggered Start)
5:45pm--Men's C
6:10pm--Men's B
6:40pm--Women's A, B, and Singlespeed (Staggered Start)
7:15pm--Men's A

Please let us know whether you like this schedule or not. Barring any changes, this is how we will run races for weeks 6 through 12.

Week 4 Course Map

This week, you'll get a reprieve from the climbs, but this course offers up some new challenges. A good start will be crucial in this fast, technical course, and passes will have to be carefully planned.

Week 3 Results

Week 3 results can be found HERE. The link on the sidebar has been updated and now directs you to a page that contains results for each week of racing, including all thirteen events from last summer.

Thank you to everyone who came out and raced! We got extremely lucky with the weather not once but twice yesterday. We once again had a bunch of prizes from Panache, YellowBelly, Skratch Labs, and Green Guru. Boulder Cycle Sport was also at the event providing basic mechanical support, and will be at the event every week.

It looks like we've had some photographers at the event; if you are one, or know one, have them contact us at cucyclingshorttrack@gmail.com and we can give them a shoutout on the blog.

Speaking of blogs, aren't they just so 2005? Stay tuned, we are working on a Facebook page.
