Two different courses run. 3rd time the event was run. Good times had by all. I don't have the official results yet but they will be posted soon. But tonight's King of the Street is:<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nHIBkiLGqaI/SmPYACBXSzI/AAAAAAAAA78/QjtUtKUuUww/s1600-h/0719092119.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nHIBkiLGqaI/SmPYACBXSzI/AAAAAAAAA78/QjtUtKUuUww/s400/0719092119.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5360365476555213618" border="0" /></a>Jeff Jacobi<br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">Jeff posted the fastest times on both courses and took home the KOM Series Trophy [Yes, it's suppose to look that way]. If anyone has pictures from the event please send them to me at adamlorenz@gmail.com and we'll get some posted on here soon.<br /><br />Once again we would like to thank all the supporters [<a href="http://www.algercyclery.com/">Alger Cyclery</a>, <a href="http://www.velocityusa.com/">VelocityUSA</a>, and Eggnonomus], volunteers and riders for making this such a great event!

Remember, questions feel free to ask. We do have a couple of favors to ask...<br /><br />_ If you're on Facebook and planning on joining in on the race this Sunday, RSVP on our event page. You can do so <a href="http://www.facebook.com/events.php?ref=sb#/event.php?eid=127394773528&ref=share">here</a>.<br /><br />_ We are also looking for a few people to help with running corners, this is a vital role in keeping all the riders safe. You will simply be responsible for letting the riders know if they are safe to turn or cross intersections where there are blind spots [which is simple a good time to remind all riders that this will NOT be a closed course, there will be cars and pedestrians that will have no idea what is going on] If you're interested in running a corner please email me at adamlorenz@gmail.com<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1236666416562936757-3970485361287213034?l=grkingofthestreets.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Adam Lorenzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14730447742051922091noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1236666416562936757.post-53332059647229808542009-07-11T21:39:00.001-07:002009-07-11T21:48:11.082-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_nHIBkiLGqaI/SllpR_IAR5I/AAAAAAAAA7U/tGErzbMHZvY/s1600-h/kots+lega.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 243px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_nHIBkiLGqaI/SllpR_IAR5I/AAAAAAAAA7U/tGErzbMHZvY/s400/kots+lega.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5357428989457614738" border="0" /></a><br />That's right.
