Ok folks, this weekend is THE event of the year on 31 January. Sick Promotions will be holding the 5th Annual Lou's Night Race and Air 40 Pack MTB Time Trial.


This weekend is a great time to come to Fresno's Woodward MTB Park, bring all your bikes, Cyclocross, X-C, BMX, Freeride, Road and even your Trials bike as well. Great weather is coming for this weekend so don't miss this one...



Kicking off with the MTB Time Trial registration at 11:00 am with the First rider off at 12:00 with the Air 40 Pack MTB Time Trial and finishing with

Cool prizes, Cool contests like the Capt Candle Power Award for the brightest light and the Best Bling Award for the most colorful lit bike for the cyclocross events.

Two different disciplines on one day? Do you have the stamina and strength to do both events? Who will have the bragging rights on the team for the year as who beat who at the World Famous Lou's Night Cyclocross race? We'll have to see.

JP puts on a SICK race! In my 12 years of racing 'cross, this event is super special, hope ya'll can make it!!!

Oh yeah - and don't forget to bring a head or bike light! Mine went out, but managed to race with a pen light frozen in between my fingers! Nothing like racing CX on one of the coldest nights on record and racing in the darkness and then back into the party zone, racing through a live rock band, heater lamps, live football game, beer, food, barriers to liven things up! My favorite part was the steep climb up then down into a runway of darkness following a line of beaded lights then into a sweeping left hand s-turn into a log dismount and then do it all over again... whee!!!

LAST, LAST chance to 'cross in CA and the nation????

The last California race is on Valentine's Day in Santa Rosa: http://www.bikemonkey.net/?page_id=60

I grew up in Fresno and always thought Woodward would be a great venue for 'cross racing - especially the section where the Lou is going to be run. I actually used to practice out there in the early 90's. My wife and I are planning on making the drive up from SD. It should be fun!
