Team Evergreen Racing Weekly News - Thursday July 19th, 2007

• Welcome to the TER weekly news.  This email news goes out to all team members early Thursday mornings.

• Graeme Street - expressed his appreciation to all of Team Evergreen for all the support, feedback and a great experience on the Triple!

• Positions for the TER Board - are available for next season - please email Ted if you have any questions and would like to be involved with the direction of this great team!

• Winter Park series - This Saturday's Winter Park Awards/refreshments will be at the Base Village/starting area and NOT downtown. The TER team tent will be setup there. This is due to the Jazz Festival having been moved to downtown. Burgers/Beer after the race!

  ALSO; I am organizing a TER ride Sunday the 22nd to preview the Aug. 4 Cross Country Course. Meet in the Alco parking lot in downtown Fraser Sunday at 9AM to pre-ride the Aug. 4 WP XC course. Wear your TER kit; Ted will lead the ride.

  Congrats to Rolo Luarca whose 3rd place finish last race in WP was moved up to 2nd due to disqualification of a rider that started improperly.

  Winter Park Team Standings: Team A is in 2nd place training 1st by ONLY 6 points!!!!! Team B is in 12th and Team C is in 13th. We're still only HALFWAY thru the season so anything can happen. EVERY position counts!

• View - WP Teams Race Series Roster before changes.

• Bid on a new factory fresh Yeti 575 mtn bike - Background: The Evergreen Rodeo offered a raffle this year and the winner won a new Yeti 575.  The winner approached us and said she would rather have the money, so she is willing to offer the bike to the highest bid from TER over $2,000.  The Rodeo Association is aware of this offer to the team.  The high bidder will select their size and color, this is a new bike from the Yeti factory!  Send your bid to news@teamevergreen.org by Monday July 27th at 8pm.

• Upcoming Race - Sat. July 21: Mt Evans Hill Climb - For more information, check the ACA website.

• Weekend ride - Sat, July 21, Morrison to Central City (RT). Meet at the Rooney/Morrison Rd ralley pt, ready to start riding by 8am. Email Robin if you are interested. (If there is no interest, the ride won't happen.)

• Weekend ride - Sun, July 22, Mogel Bismark Loop out of Golden, 4 hours, leaving from Ford and 12th in Golden at 8am, 40 miles (52 miles with option).

• Hill Climb / Wednesday Training Ride - Wednesday, July 25th. Meet at the Lookout Mt Pillars at 5:30 for the early start and 6:00 for the later start. TT and interval training.

  NEW! Skills training! As a regular part of the Wednesday training rides we will begin to offer training on skills related to racing and descending, at the beginning of the ascent and the beginning of the descent. The training portion will be short, with the idea being that we can practice new skills during the training ride. Also, at the beginning of the ride we will also allow time for teammates to share any training tips that have been helpful.    Hope to see you at the pillars at 5:30p!
