2007 Results!

Before we get down to the whos whats and hows, we would like to thank Chrome Bags for donating one of their awesome messenger bags to the race--they make very stylish, top-quality products, and their bags would make absolutely perfect Christmas presents.

We'd also like to thank the owner of the Super Cao Nguyen, who generously offered to donate an additional can for every racer that visited his store!

The event, by all of our (admittedly humble) standards, was a HUGE success--we had 56 racers show up, we collected 336 pounds of food for the food bank, and we donated an additional $131 out of the race fees to help feed the hungry. According to the food bank, that's enough food and money for 1179 meals!

Much thanks to all of our sponsors for their overwhelming support--the race wouldn't have happened without you guys!

Here are the 2007 results (along with what they won) *drumroll*:

FIXED/SINGLE SPEED

1. Steve Schlegel (given that he donated the first place prizes, he went ahead and gave it back so we could give it to someone else)
2. Tim Sylvester--$20 and a SWOBO shirt
3. Caleb Nimz (with a broken wrist!) -- $10 gift certificate to Sauced and a cycling cap
4. TEAM NEAL -- $10 gift certificate to Sauced
   

GEARED

1. Adam Locke -- Timbuk2 "Bag In A Box"
2. KW Satterfield -- SWOBO shirt and $20
3. Micah Metheny -- $10 gift certificate to Sauced and a cycling cap
4. John Ming -- $10 gift certificate to Sauced

WOMEN
We had enough support from our sponsors to have a women's-only division, which is totally rad. There were somewhere around 10 girls that showed up to race, a number we hope to increase in the future.

1. Traci Walker -- Chrome Messenger Bag
2. Michelle Kanaly -- Timbuk2 "Bag In A Box"

WORST WRECK

1. Nick Southerland
   

Celestial Cycles decided to donate a fixed-gear conversion bicycle as a door prize to "whoever needed it." It was decided that Nick Southerland, of Tulsa, OK, who wrecked coming into the finish and demolished his rear wheel, fit the bill. Nick immediately donated the bike he wrecked to Celestial, who are fixing it up to give away in the next race.


Thanks to everyone who helped, donated their time/products, and of course everyone who participated. The event was absolutely fantastic because of all of you, and we hope to see you next year!
