Crossnado is coming!!!

Yep, only a few days away - it's CROSSNADO! November 2, at our new venue - Wawayanda State Park. Pre-reg closes at 9 p.m tomorrow night! Save yourself some money, and get yourself a better call up/starting position - pre-reg now!

Once again, there will be Mexican food from our favorite Ruby Rose, Heckle Hill for you to torment your fellow racers, and a wide range of terrain - dirt, grass, sand, gravel, pavement, climbing, flats - we've got it all!

If you want a sneak peak, we'll be out taping the course starting at 12 p.m. on Saturday. After you race CXMeur (as you should be!), come on by - it's only a short ride down Clinton Road, 20 minutes from Craigmeur.

As always, any questions - info@teamtowncycle.com. See you Sunday! (and don't forget the time change - Daylight Savings Time ends on Saturday night - turn your clocks back!)

Thank you's and some notes

  • We've been trying to remember to thank everyone who came out and joined us at JORBA Jungle Jam on 9/21- maybe you came and took out a demo bike, bought a raffle ticket, swept a ride, brought a friend. Thank you to all of you who helped us spread the JORBA love! A special thank you to Manny Lugo of VideoTrailReviews.com - always a champion of JORBA, not only did he donate a stack of videos to our door prize swag, he also made a great highlight video of the day. Manny is the man! http://vimeo.com/108092023
  • Looking for a mid week workout? Join TTC's Jay Huggins as he holds a beginners night at the West Milford Family Pump Track on October 8, from 5:30-7 p.m. No BMX or dirt jump bike? No problem - Jay will have some loaners. Feel free to bring your mountain bike as well - that, and a helmet, and you're in for a good night of riding under Jay's expert guidance.
