It’s less than two weeks until the official launch of the 2010 Professional Mountain Bike Gravity Race Tour (Pro GRT)! I’m extremely excited, as I’m sure you are as well, to get the national series under way! With teams & riders such as TREK WORLD RACING, TEAM GIANT, GREG MINNAAR & many more participating, it’s sure to be one hell of a race!
For all you Moto fans in town, you’re sure to se some epic battles at the SEATTLE SUPERCROSS on Saturday night… why not make the trip to see some great DOWNHILL RACING! Here’s an easy map that’ll get you straight to Port Angeles! http://www.mapquest.com/mq/3-arV7gR1dTpbx
I wanted to give you a few quick notes concerning the Port Angeles stop of the Pro GRT…
• Early Traffic Warning!!! We're still several weeks out, but it's good to know about traffic ahead of time! I believe the affected area is just North of the cut-off to head north towards Port Angeles, but traffic back-ups could still add a bit of extra travel time. This SHOULDN’T affect most of us, but with traffic build up on one side of the road.. it may affect the other side!
