Just a quick shout out to let everyone know we will be supporting the new Southern California Scholastic High School Mountain Bike League
www.socaldirt.com. The importance and need for this league here in Southern California is crucial. It is another avenue for our kids to be involved in the passion for mountain biking. The League’s vision and dedication are going to be a amazing avenue to get kids involved in a sport loved by all. We will be collecting donations to help support the SoCal League. So Please bring a couple of bucks extra. The 12 Hours Of Temecula will be donating a portion of our proceeds to help out the League.
We will also have Renaud Catering coming down from Santa Maria to feed us some world famous Tri tip. Plus Juice It Up and Wetzel Pretzel will be on hand to help fill the void between your neck and waist! Maybe even between your hair and waist…
The Raffle for the race is going to be the biggest of all time. Not only the companies that are on site, but also from companies who can’t make it out. It may take a long time to raffle a bunch of this stuff. But I know you aren’t going anywhere until the swag is all gone. Maybe the 12 Hours Of Temecula will be the first race to have a 12 hour raffle!
There will also be special raffle prizes going to racers who have been with us for all three 12 Hours Of Temecula races this year. I personally am donating four coupons worth $150 apiece towards race fees for 2009. But that is only the start…also to include a bike giveaway!
Together it’s over $10,000 in cash and prizes being given away at the November 15.
The course is set and it is going to be super fun and fast. So bring your game face and battle cry and lets get ready to end 2008 with a bang.
