Hey folks,
A teammate and I are coming up to race the pro-1 race at Fitchburg in a couple weeks. The race itself is Friday July 2nd - Monday July 5th. I'll be driving there and he'll be flying into town. I was hoping to get some BC Cycling hook-ups and that hopefully someone or someone's family would be able to offer host housing for the race and live near Fitchburg or at least in a far West suburb of Boston. Soooo do you or anyone you know live near Fitchburg, MA? Might you or this person you know be willing to host two bike racers for the 4th of July weekend?
For those that have never done the host housing thing for racers we're pretty self sufficient and usually plan to prepare our own food and expect couches...doing a load of laundry is also fairly common ;-)
I forget if the Fitchburg race has neutral feeders for the feed zone but if not then we may also be looking for one or more volunteer to work the feed zone for us for Saturday's Wachusette road race.
As a bit of background I'm a cat 1 road and track racer and a BC '05 Alum...my teammate is Patrick McCarty formerly of Postal, Discovery, Phonak, Ouch, and more. Basically, he doesn't suck...I'm just along at this race for the ride and to try to help him whenever I can but it could be a good experience hosting or supporting one of the stronger stage racers in the race.
If you think you may be able to help out just let me know. e-mail or phone call works:
