The Gonzaga Cycling Team is looking at putting on a XC (and possibly a DH) race on Sept. 18-19 somewhere in or around Spokane. Our best bet it to use Riverside (stage at 7 mile airstrip and do laps around there). This at its core would be a collegiate race, but we could open it up to the general public. We're hoping to qualify some riders for Collegiate MTB Nationals this year so we have to do some races.
We have never put on a race before so we may need a little help. I'll also talk to Baddlands and see if they will be able to provide some race equipment.
Any suggestions or comments would be much appreciated!
On a side note...would it be cool to do this in conjunction with Spokefest and have the MTB races on Sept 11-12? We could turn the Spokefest weekend into a huge cycling weekend. Probably do the XC race on Saturday and then the DH race up at Beacon on Sunday.
