Hello racers,
I'm happy to report that we will be using the Pacific Crest Middle School course this year for the Bend Summer Crit Series p/b McGlone Property Group EXP Realty.   Thanks to the efforts of some friends who really went to bat for us to use the old course.  It may be the last year that we can use this course, due to punching Skyline Ranch Road through.  So let's have a great big turnout!  

The races will be on Wednesday evenings, from 5:10 p.m.-8:00 p.m. at Pacific Crest Middle School, June 24th, July 1st, July 8th, July 15th and July 22nd.  More info here:

We need volunteers to make this event possible.  Please sign up here.

If you volunteer, you will be rewarded with homemade cookies.  

Hope to see you soon.  

P.S. If you are on the road on Monday afternoons from 4:30 p.m.-6:00 p.m., you might be seeing our HCF junior teams riding.  We are 43 riders strong!  If you would ever like to come out and help with our groups, just let me know.  

Sincerely,
Molly Cogswell-Kelley
Horner Cycling Foundation

Bumping Molly's post back up to the top to bring some attention to it :)

We are so lucky to have this series in Bend, and especially to be back on the Pacific Crest Middle School course (ie, the traditional course) for 2026!  Please come out and support local racing via one of these two ways (or better yet, both):
  1. Race!  Races only happen if people show up to race. This is the number one way to support local races and keep them coming back the next year. 
  2. Volunteer, or talk someone you know into volunteering. You can see the volunteer tasks and time slots on the sign up sheet here. We need volunteers to make these races happen.  If you are maybe a cross racer that does not do crits, that's totally cool, but please consider volunteering for the crits. I promise the people that only do crits but not cross will return the favor for Thrilla, sort of like a foreign exchange program ;)
More on the summer crit series is here. And, since we are on the topic of Bend crits, the downtown Bend Cascade Cycling Classic crit is June 21, more info here

Kindly,
Matt Allen
