Come out & support your favorite bike racer!

Hey, what are you doing Sunday morning? How about taking in a bike race? I bet you've never done that before!

The Capitol Velo racing club is hosting its annual Fairview Circuit Race in Salem. It's the only race that Jim's team puts on, and it's the only one held in Salem. It'll be a good time. You should be there! I'll be there! My mom will be there! Even my sister from California will be there! Beth & Michael & Eli are probably coming to cheer on their friend from out of state!

And there will be a lot of men (and women). In spandex. Sporting very smooth legs. Hee hee. Come, join the merriment!  

Oh, and Jim will be there too, of course. He'll look much like this:

He'd love to have you there, cheering him on!

The races are very fun & exciting & I always have a good time. The event begins at 9 a.m., and Jim's race starts at 9:30 a.m. It lasts 35 minutes. Afterward, he'll be driving his motorcycle as a pace vehicle for some of the other races.

The race is out on Fairview Industrial Drive SE, very near the Pringle Creek Community. We'll be there by 8:30 or so, camped out by the car while Jim warms up on his trainer. If you show up, give me a call to find us.

We're hoping to visit the World Beat Festival afterwards. And, should our spirits withstand the action & the heat, we'll be heading to Corvallis for the Denison Farms open house. Any other CSA subscribers going to that?

 


Who can say no to that face?

Sounds like a wonderful event and how super that your Mom and sister can be there. Couldn't you get Chris to ride his motorcycle up? We'd love to come but we are heading out on Tuesday for our Ohio trip for my sisters burial so I guess we will have to pass up loud, rowdy fun for crying in a cemetery. Good luck to Jim ! And, yes, that is a never say no to face for sure !

Count Alex and I in for the race. Stefanie probably will join us for the Dension Farm trip. Not sure what we will bring to the potluck at the farm though.

We'll give you a call if we're able to make it--it sounds like fun. And good luck if we don't show! I'm also tentative for the Denison Farm trip...Adam won't be able to make that one, so it'd just be me an' Oscar and some potluck item to be determined.

Yeay, Jim! You were awesome! (Bike tires just need to catch up to your awesomeness.)
