First off let me say congrats for your first successful fly through the most difficult course I have seen constructed at Alpine! Some of you left some skin on the hill, but I hear that Alpine was planning on doing some grooming on the course so it should be in much better shape for the race.

If you do not see your name on the list - don't worry - we will be running gates of "Charlie" riders after every round. There will be a good mix of students from all different schools running in these races. It's not for points, but it will give you lots of experience racing against other people. Just because you are not racing for points doesn't mean you are not on the team! If I need to replace a rider because of injury/sickness I need backups to take their place.
If you are not able to make it race night - please contact me by phone or email as soon as possible so I can make plans to replace you in the lineup.
Also keep in mind - every tuesday (time and weather permitting) Jake and I will be running a "Team Placement Race". This is a way for you riders that may not be in the lineup to move into a starting position. This race will consist of 3 races per group, with riders moving up and down within the brackets. Jake and I will explain the format when we do it.
I will have the new jerseys and stickers thursday. Please get to Alpine BEFORE 5pm on thursday at the bottom of the race course so we can hand these out and go over any other questions.
Always - if you have concerns or questions, shoot me an email....
