“This is it race fans! The Montana State Cyclocross Championships will be held this Sunday November 18th at Historic Fort Missoula. As a Championship race, double points will be awarded and State Championship Medals are on hand for the top three places in all categories (provided the rider is a resident of Montana and holds a USA Cycling Road, or Mountain License). We will have a separate race for the Men’s A field slated to start at high noon, while all remaining fields will have staggered starts beginning at 11:00 (depending on turnout, some fields may be combined). We are making final preparations and are on target for a great day of racing.
A couple of housekeeping items- 1. My phone number is 406-546-6759 (cell), 2. Fort Missoula is located off of South Avenue West, not South 3rd Street. There are several ways to get to the Fort, but the easiest directions are to take Reserve Street (Highway 93) to South Avenue West. Traveling from the north, you will take a right onto South Avenue, from the south, you will take a left. Traveling west on South Avenue you will go past Missoula Community Hospital and then past soccer playing fields (on the left hand side of the road). The road into the Fort is immediately past the playing fields on the left. If you end up seeing Target Range School, you have gone too far.
Once inside the Fort Missoula Complex, look for the Kona Bicycles Tent (registration).
The weather forecast for Sunday is Cyclocross perfect. A chance of rain showers. Cloudy, with a high near 41. Chance of precipitation is 50%. Bring your embrocation.
I look forward to seeing everyone at the race. If you have any questions do not hesitate to ping me.” ~Mike Beltz
