Chris Horner’s Team RadioShack diary: Paris-Nice time trial

It’s never too early to start thinking about the Cascade Cycling Classic. The date for the 2010 stage race is set for July 20-25. So put it on your calendar.

Bend has a verbal agreement with USA Cycling to host the 2011 and 2012 US Masters Cycling championships, which should be even bigger than Cyclocross National. This is huge!!!

Checkout BendVelo tonight:

Join Us for Bend Velo’s Grand Opening!

January 23rd, 5:00 p.m.-9:00 p.m.

Come check out our full fleet of Bionicon Backcountry Mountain bikes and stay for the inaugural running of Velo Sprints.

A brand new addition to the Central Oregon cycling scene, Bionicon Mountain Bikes are built with German engineering and are sure to attract both experienced and causal riders. Come see for yourself why the Bionicon is starting to make waves in the mountain bike community.

Starting at 7pm, Bend Velo will kick off Velo Sprints Roller Races.

Two fixed gear bikes, a pair of custom rollers, and a video screen; participants race against each other and the clock.

Don’t want to race? Just want to watch? As part of the crowd, it is your responsibility to get in the racers’ faces. Make them ride harder. Heckle with the best of them.

Refreshments and light snacks will be served.
