Pintler Classic Update



Black Coffee Roasting Company King of the Mountain
Winners get $25 Cash and Coffee!

KOM/QOM will be scored as the total of two or three rated climbs, depending on category.  Points will be scored 7 deep in Cat 1/2/3,  Master's A/B, and Women's 1/2/3.  See where you stack up on the climbs.  Do you have the leg's to take home the KOM?

Cash will also go to the top three in Men's and Women's Cat 1/2/3. TBD

A big thanks to Sponsors:  Missoula Bicycle Works, Philipsburg Brewing Company, Hammer Nutrition and Black Coffee Roasting Co. for providing unfailing support and some real nice swag for our top finishers!


And now for some housekeeping:  I am still in need of a few volunteers to make this a roaring success.  Please contact me if you are interested in being a follow vehicle for the race.  Drivers will be reimbursed for gas and have a front row seat to the action.

As many of you may know, there have been a couple of revisions to the race categories.  Men's Cat 1/2/3 will race together, but be scored separate.  Master's A/B...same thing applies.  Women's Cat 1/2/3/4 all start together, but are scored separately.  I would like to split up categories if fields are large enough and we have enough vehicles.  So spread the word and get everyone out to Philipsburg for a great day of racing.

Lastly,  Sign in will be downtown at the Rotary Building, on block south of Broadway, NOT at the park as in years past.  We have ample parking, an indoor sign in area and restrooms.  Not to mention some seriously good coffee from BCRC.

I am still waiting on camping in town at The Sanctuary, but there is a state campground 8 miles south on HWY 1.  I should hear more this week and will post.

Pintler Classic Weekly Update - Things are Heating Up!


Hey there racers!

We've got Philipsburg Brewing Company supplying each racer (21+ yo) with a free beer and we now have Black Coffee Roasting Company and Hammer Nutrition contributing to the prize list!

I will be posting more as information (and goodies) come available.  I am working on some local camping options and will be listing the local lodging options soon. 

Remember that the Discovery XC MTB race is on Sunday!!!  How about racing road on Saturday and MTB on Sunday.

Thanks for checking in and keep checking back.
