Hot Damn - Bend, OR is going to host the nationals for the next 2 years! party at my house.
2009 & 2010 US Cyclocross Nationals
- Thread starter Heidi
- Start date
you do realize the size of the flood gate you just opened with your invite??!!!
hehehe - we'll see. All of Bend is going to be off the hook that weekend. We like us some crappy December weather, bike racing, and beer.
what are the transportation options as far as getting there? i have heard that getting there can be a little sketchy. Sounds like a sweet place tho.
Probably fly into Portland and drive over. I don't think there is a shuttle to the Redmond airport, but I may be wrong. There are plenty of hotels and the guys putting the race on do a top notch job. Should be fun
Heidi will bring the truckster to pick you up, shes cool like that.
i may just have to bring a mtb and make it a week.
that late in the year we'll probably be racing in snow
As for transportation options, you can fly into Portland, rent a car a drive over, OR you could fly into Redmond Oregon which is only about 20 minutes from Bend. Usually it's more expensive to fly into Redmond but it saves you the gas money of the 2.5 hour drive to Bend from PDX. Once you get to Bend you could feasibly not use your car at all because everything you would want is walking/riding distance.
Yes, it very well could be snowy. Who knows, we could have another late winter and you'd be able to ride lots of the trails. You could bring your snowboard or skis and ski up at Bachelor (25 minutes from Bend). Options people.
