From what I hear, the Portland Velo rest stop at last year's LiveSTRONG Challenge was THE place to be. This year will be even better, since we actually have a theme! We're still planning the details, but a very creative Traci D'Elia has named it "Fly to the Finish". It's going to be a kind of "Top Gun" theme - with propellers, aviator sunglasses, flags, you get the picture. AND since Portland Velo is providing the "Wingmen" to accompany riders in on the last 10 miles or so of their LiveSTRONG Challenge ride, what could possibly be a better theme than that?
Reserve the date Sunday, June 29 on your calendar.
