Thursday West Eugene Cyclocross

[Joel]

Churchill High School 5:15PM this Thursday Nov. 4.
Let's meet by the volleyball courts which are on the South side of the
school near the tennis courts. Civil twilight is just after 6:30 so
we'll have some time in the light but be prepared for some low-vis
rally action and bring lights to get home. Expect 3 sets: long course
w/run-up(s), short course w/sand & grass, swoopy grass w/barriers.
Please bring barriers if you have them.

I'll be scouting tomorrow (tues) night at 8:30pm if anyone wants to
join.

The scouting mission found lots of swampy grass and not much good
light. This will limit the options somewhat because we shouldn't do
too much damage to the grounds. We can work around it this Thursday
because there will be some light earlier. The highlight is that the
long volleyball court is currently wet & firm enough to be ride-able.
It's lit well enough to make a nice short hard interval loop in the
dark. Sand is not friendly to your drivetrain. Take this into
consideration. Running it will be a nice workout too. Note that
there is reportedly a long sand pit added to the nationals course in
Bend this year.

Keep your eyes open for lit venues for evening cross workouts. Let's
try to mix them up so we don't wear out our welcome at any given
place.

See y'all Thurs.

Joel:
Thanks for the investigation.
I wonder if there is some reasonable lighting around the BMX track near
Autzen stadium for evening sessions.
We'll keep brainstorming.
See you tomorrow!
Cheers, ATO
