Tour of the Bitterroot - A Call for Volunteers


The Tour of the Bitterroot Omnium is this weekend and Team Stampede is sponsoring it. This means that we need LOTS of volunteers to make it run smoothly and safely. Now is the time for all of the triathletes and cyclists to step up and volunteer in any way possible. If you aren't racing definitely be there to help out. We need marshalls for the road race and crit, for the feed zone at the top of Airport Rd. and lots of registration jobs. Contact Robin Pruitt at robin.pruitt@bitterrootlandtrust.org or our own John Weyrich at john_weyhrich@yahoo.com

I'm not sure, but we should be getting together this week to discuss volunteer jobs. If not, just show up Friday night for the sweep as we will be driving down to the Stevensville Road Course to sweep up the corners. Or show up early on Saturday (~11am) at the St. Mary's Mission in Stevensville. You will definitely get a job. Thank you all so much for supporting the cycling half of the team!


It will be awesome to see all of you on the corners as we go racing by. Be sure to look for lots of orange as we will be out in big numbers this weekend. The Tour of the Bitterroot is a classic and is the highlight of our racing season. Our Cat 4 and Cat 5 fields are stacked! Cat 1,2,3 will see the likes of Elliot and I, John Weyrich and hopefully Matt Seeley (2nd last year). And maybe we'll even get some women this year.
