So not to interfere with Derby Day Celebrations we are going to throw an "Oaks Day Alley Cat" for Friday May 2.

Details to follow shortly. It will not be a long distance but will be more typical race like we have done in the past. Checkpoints, maps, mainfest, etc.

It will be an evening race with a horse theme.

You'll be hearing from me soon.

That is a cool image. Draisines are hardcore.

Actually, that's not the poster image for the Oaks Day race... that's just something quick and dirty that I made for the home page.

Alex is working on the actual poster.
