I just realized I haven’t really looked at the OBRA schedule at all, or thought about training at all. Wow, how bizarre for me.
Mountain Bike Schedule:
- April 11th – Horning’s Hustle (Hillsboro)
- May 9th – Cascade Chainbreaker MTB (Bend)
- May 30th – Sisters Stampede XC MTB (Sisters, I assume)
- June 27th – Pickett’s Charge MTB (Bend)
- July 5th – Portland MTB Short Track Series starts
- July 17th – Leadville 50 – (Leadville, CO)
- August 7th – High Cascades 100 MTB
Roadie Schedule:
- March 14, 21 – Banana Belt (maybe)
- April 10th – King’s Valley
- April 22nd – 25th – Cherry Blossom
- May 16th – Silverton
- June 9th – Tabor series starts
Done and done.

Waiting until April to start? Good idea! I’m on the same plan. February and March is way to early for this racin’ stuff.
Indeed. Unless we have some freakishly good weather earlier, I’m planning on starting later. I would like to avoid burn out, and I’m starting “training” later too. No training plans for me, I’m just gonna ride my ass off! I’m reverting back to the way I did things a few years ago
Yes the Sisters Stampede XC is in Sisters! Spread the word, as it should be a really fun event, and one of the few to be staged from town (and a local brewery).
