Portland Velo Race Team Captures #1 Spot in Oregon!
This week, the Portland Velo Race Team captured the #1 spot in OBRA! Congratulations to all our racers who have been working together to get better both as individuals and as a team. It is always fun and entertaining to read about the races in the forum as well as see the photos from the events. This is as much a testament to Ty's hard work as Directeur Sportif as it is the dedication and hard work all our racers have put out this season. For updates on the team check out the Race Team Page. Congrats Ty and the Portland Velo Race Team!
