It might be tough to get many folks with just a few weeks notice, but Chuck will give it a try!<br /><br />Fitz just shared some encouraging news on the Tour today (out of the legislature and on its way for approval with the overall budget). Now the secret is Gov. Nixon not playing the poltical game that went on last year. <br /><br />It's going to be tough getting things moving with such a late start, but all things are possible. Just hope we were selected as a Tour city!!AChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05510058980440209541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678235849440012961.post-72250074598896358982010-04-11T21:16:53.973-06:002010-04-11T21:16:53.973-06:00I am open to all of those ideas and believe that m...I am open to all of those ideas and believe that momentum is on our side...Shores Sports would be happy to advise on any future events. I do believe that placing another race on the Schedule could be tricky! But, maybe a cyclocross race weekend later in the year? Just a thought?<br /><br />I am in Wichita, KS on April 15th, if I get away early enough to make it to the meeting in St. Joe, I will attend. Otherwise, I will be all ears from Jason's attendance to that meeting and looking forward to all things cycling!<br /><br />All my best to your ideas!<br /><br />JP Shores<br />jpsatc@yahoo.com<br />Owner / Team Director<br />Shoressports.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678235849440012961.post-47649226489422096712010-04-09T20:16:48.541-06:002010-04-09T20:16:48.541-06:00AC, I can't speak for everyone...But here are ...AC, I can't speak for everyone...But here are my thoughts.. We will really have to think about having another MTB race later in the season this year...(we, as in Randy and Craig, I am only really training to whoop their asses right now) This year is quite filled with races and the more the fellas put one on, the less your training and racing in others...<br /><br />As far as this year and the May race we do need help and thank you for it.. I will be at the next LOC meeting and will try to bring one of the fat kids with me..<br /><br />I agree that we need to keep the momentum from TOM and the LOC committee. Regardless of a race coming to town or not.. As far as MTB goes, we are absolutely blessed here in St. Joseph and probably should promote that. <br /><br /> Last I read the TOM might actually get funding. With all the time lost it should be a cluster F&*k if approved however! Maybe we could take them up Huntoon and 2nd street and have a king of the mountain/classic route? The queen stage in St. Joseph? Just a thought..JDOUGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01678296472871820321noreply@blogger.com
