Fluidride Cup #5-Back to the Hill

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's just around to corner!!
We just had a little work session this past weekend prepping for the race. Thanks to the guys from Recycled Cycles and DWB racing for the help. The tracks are FAST right now, and we are finally getting some much needed rain right now.

There should be something new for all the courses this time around as well.

Something to consider, the Clallam County Fair is the same weekend, so you might want to book your lodging sooner than later.

We look forward to seeing you all.

Camping info for the race

Hey Scott,
I'm getting lots of reservations for tenting sites for the up coming fluid ride on Aug 21 & 22. To make it easier for all the downhill racers we would like to offer the following special:
Tent site with firepit and picnic table is $19 for two people.
A patch of grass to park and roll out your sleeping bag or put up a tent is $8 per person.
Of course all of our guest have access to the restrooms and hot showers 24 hours a day!
Arrangements can be make for late checkout on Sunday.

We are looking forward to having all the fluid ride people with us again for the August ride; they are all great guest and a good group of people.
Thanks, Bobbi
