Last Race of 2009

By Travis Sluder | Posted on 10/15/2009 4:56 AM | Comments on 0 comments

Hollister will be SVBRC's last race for 2009. Conditions on the course should be perfect with all the recent rain. The temperature is forecasted to be 74 with no rain. A perfect day of racing awaits you on October 17 at Hollister Hills. Look for some great changes in 2010. Changes include 2 race series, 5 races each. We are currently trying to fine tune the schedule and will let you know what we have planned in the next few weeks. Thanks for all your support in 2009, look for even better things to come in 2010!

Thanks again,

Travis & Tammy

News and Updates

The Henry Coe race is all set for Saturday the 19th.  We look forward to seeing you there.  Reminder, this is a USA Cycling Sanctioned event.  You will be required to show your license there.  We will have membership applications onsite and single day license applications.  All CAT 1's are required to have an annual membership.

The athlete guide is up at: Guide

Bring plenty of fluids, this will be a difficult course. See you bright an early Saturday.

Other news:

South Valley Bike and Run and changed our website url (the old one will still work) and logo to South Valley Endurance (www.svendurance.com).  As we have progressed into more races (see below) we realized that this sounded better, shorter, plus we wanted to do more.  We still have yearly memberships that lower your entry fees into events and they get you a club T shirt. 

Club members will soon have access to workout programs to further enhance your fitness.  Keep an eye out for them.

We have scheduled 10 Mountain Bike races for next year.  They are going to be run in 2 - five race series.  The first series starts up in February.  There will be points awarded.  See here for points information: FAQ PAGE 

We also have 3 - six race Trail running series starting next year.  We are happy to announce that GU Energy has picked up sponsorship of all running events.  These will be points based series as well.

Upcoming Events:

Hollister Hills Mountain Bike Race on Saturday October 17th and Trail run on Sunday October 18th.  We are working with the state to lower the fees on this event to help out with the economy.  It appears we will be able to lower them to $35.00.  If we do this please show us how much it means by registering. 

Group Events:

This past weekend we had a good size group show up for the Henry Coe pre rides.  Good job everyone. 

The group trail run on Sunday had a large turnout as well.  See you at the next one.

I have changed the time on the Sunday group run at Harvey Bear to 8 am tomorrow.  The temperature and smoke are an issue later in the day.  Hope to see you there.
