IMBA coming to the Big O

THOR Members and interested THOR members,

An IMBA rep is coming to Omaha Monday and Tuesday 11/9 & 10 to assist in our green space asset mapping and ride center project, spear headed by Kent McNeill.

Monday night at 6pm, at the Old Chicago on 78th & Cass, Ryan Schutz, IMBA's Regional Director, will be meeting with those interested in helping with the project. An email was sent out to all THOR members a few days ago. Please reply to roxzanne.abbott@gmail.com if you're interested in coming so we have a count.

Thanks!

CX Practice at Swanson

I was thinking about setting up the Swanson course this weekend (Saturday? Around 1PM?) and doing some practice racing, since i don't have time to head to KC this weekend. If you are interested, please leave a comment to this post.

TNR for Nov 5: Swanson

Thursday Night Ride for Nov 5 is gonna be at swanson park.  You'll need lights from the get-go.  Meet 6pm, rollout 6:10pm, with any luck we hit lil burro afterwards.... good times!

tis the season for trail construction

With cooler temps, the flora dieing back, and no frost in the ground yet, we are in prime time trail building season. And we have a great opportunity for you to contribute some sweat equity to the local mtb scene this weekend.

I understand its a great weekend to ride so we incorporated that into this trail which is not open to the public yet.

It's Coming Your Way

Look Out!

Rains Coming

Up from Lincoln, I'll make the call on CX practice at 5:00PM

Lost Camera

Hey folks, a buddy of mine lost his Nikon point and shoot at the Sydney. The bar found the battery but no camera. So if you happened upon it please drop it off at the Trek Store so we can get it back to it's rightful owner.

CX practice WEDNESDAY

Hey folks, sorry on the short notice but I've got to push CX practice back one day to Wednesday. We're doing inventory at the shop tomorrow so I'll be tied up all day. Hopefully some of you can still make it.

Daylight savings time starts Saturday night so it'll be dark by 5:45, yay! If anyone knows of a park that is lit well enough to ride under the lights we can keep it going. Otherwise we'll just have to postpone it until next year. If that's the case I'll try to do a better job of getting it started earlier in the year so we can really benefit from it. Or...I won't be racing the next two weekends so we could try to get something going Saturday or Sunday.

Anyways, see you all Wednesday.
