The Main Event


Hey Team,

Are we ready to rumble? Saturday is the Main Event. Steel cage death match. The Nebraska State TT race, which our club hosts. Some notes. Feel free to race instead of volunteer if you are on the fence. We have lots of volunteers lined up courtesy of Veloer Kirk Peck's Creighton connections. 20 something Creighton students are coming to man the intersections, the turn around points, and be a vocal force during podium presentations.

Things you can do to help: Come. Recruit other bikers you know to register. Bring coolers with ice, and bottled water. Bring some brooms to brush the road. Bring bungee cords to batten down banners. Chairs, umbrellas, cowbells, noisemakers, etc.

Veloer Christyn Stumps is making 4 loaves of banana bread. Make some vittles of your own and throw them into the kitty.

Any photographers out there?

The weather is looking good. Volunteers show up around 830 AM. Racers will launch at 930 AM.

What is the plan is there are thunderstorms?

We're talking about that now.

No hard and fast rule. We'll likely race rain or shine. But we might postpone appropriately if lightining is seen. I know in the College World Series, if lightning is seen, there is a mandatory 20 minute delay.

Let's think positive here folks!
