2008 - Seize the summer…race your bike on Monday night
Whether you’re a beginning or experienced cyclist, you’ll love racing at Portland International Raceway (PIR). One of the most popular weeknight bicycle race series in the nation, The Lakeside Bicycles Monday Night Masters and Women Race Series runs May-August. The Monday night series attracts hundreds of novice to experienced cyclists to race on a traffic-free race course that’s fun for everyone.
Races are divided into separate categories of novice masters men (aged 30+), novice women, 2 categories for more experienced masters men and an open women category for women of any age including juniors. There are even experienced racers standing by to provide guidance and answer questions if you need help. All that’s required is a helmet, a road bike and a sense of adventure.
NEW FOR 2008:
WOMEN’S INTRO TO BICYCLE RACING CLINIC:
The series has added clinics that will run on the 2nd Monday’s of the month, and will focus on the basics of how to get started in racing. There
will be a brief intro talk prior to the race start, and followed by a debriefing after the race. This will be led by experienced women racers. This is a great way to see what racing is all about, ask questions and meet other women that are riding. Clinics will run approximately 30 minutes before the race and 30 minutes after the women’s race finishes.
