LOTS of Parties to choose from

You can spend your time, waste your time, or invest your time. It's your choice.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
DON'T LET THE LIGHTS GO OUT!

Sat Oct 18 @ 7pm ~ Come join us for a “Rock and Roller Party”. This is a fundraiser for the Encino Velodrome. Come join us in Echo Park at Site LA where we plan on having way too much fun with Roller Races, music and beverages.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next LOTS Session ~ I still don’t have confirmation on the date for the next LOTS session at the LA Velodrome; I will let you all know as soon as it is confirmed!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Attn Women’s Race Teams ~ The So Cal bike racing off-season is short but it is a popular time for clinics. Now is a great time to plan a Track Cycling Clinic for your women’s team! Not only is track cycling fun but it teaches you many valuable skills that are essential for all cycling abilities and disciplines. Please contact me for more information!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sat Oct 25th 10AM ~ SCNCA Annual Meeting and SoCal Cup Award Presentation ~ The day will start off with the Annual SCNCA Board Meeting at 10:00am including the 2009 road race scheduling meeting immediately followed up by a presentation of the SoCal Cup Category Awards and picnic at 1:00pm where the Halloween themed party begins. Everything will take place at Hidden Valley, 8800 Irvine Center Drive, Irvine, CA. We will be awarding SoCal Cup jerseys for both 2007 and 2008 road and track winners. We would like to make sure we to get the top three riders from each SoCal Cup category to attend.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sun Nov 2nd ~ The 2008 Muddy Buddy Race Series is coming to San Dimas and they need some Downright Dirty Divas! No…this is not a track cycling event but it is a fun race for the multi-sport athlete! Bring your running shoes and a teammate to share a mountain bike with and join us for a leap-frog style 10k tag-team race! Both team members are required to alternate biking (approx 3 mi) and running (approx 3 mi) and there is a mandatory belly crawl thru the mudpit to get to the finish line! Teams can be co-ed or not. There is even a Costume Contest for the best dressed-up team…so don’t let your Halloween Costume go to waste!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sun Nov 9th ~ Please join us for one more track race this year! The 2008 Black Tire Affair Velodrome Challenge for Prostate and Breast Cancer Awareness
Event Location: ADT Center Velodrome - 11:00 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Format: Combination Olympic Sprint (3 team members) and Individual 500 m TT.
Each team will race two (2) Olympic Sprint heats and each team member will ride one (1) Individual time trial (500m). The winning team is the team with the lowest overall combined time for all events.

Please join us and help us raise money and awareness for the research and treatment of Prostate & Breast Cancer.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It’s Survey Time! The LOTS Program is now 2 years old. To help us plan the future direction of the Program, I am asking all of you to complete a short easy survey. While some of you have never returned to the ADT Event Center since your first Certification Class, others of you practically live there! In order to help us meet your needs and to improve the quality of the LOTS Program, I am asking all of you to complete this survey. Please & Thank you!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ladies Only Tshirts ~ Just in time for the holidays! At the request of many of you in recent months, we are finalizing the details of a really nifty LOTS Tshirt to help celebrate the 2 year Anniversary of the LOTS Program. This fundraiser will also bring some much needed finances into the program allowing us to grow LOTS into 2009. The Tshirts will be slightly fitted and nicely feminine in a high quality fabric. Sizes will range from XS-XLg. As soon as I have a picture and a firm price, I will post it here along with info on how you can order yours!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Friday Nights 6-9PM ~ Ladies, you are invited to join us on Friday evenings for Open Training at the LA Velodrome. Friday nights at ADT are lightly attended and provide a lightly structured workout designed to improve your track skills. If you are looking to gain confidence, develop specific track (training & racing) skills and improve your overall fitness without the intimidation of a more crowded session, then consider joining us on Friday nights at 6PM.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Have you seen USA Cycling's Web article featuring the LOTS program? If you, your employer or anyone you know, is interested in sponsoring the LOTS program, please contact me. The LOTS program is dedicated to introducing women to the exciting sport of track cycling and we intend to grow this program far into the future and to take it to as many track as possible!
