Sorry if you've seen this already - this message is circulating to a
few lists...

Okay, after a little prodding (not much really), I've put together a
communal blog for Northern California Bicycle Racing. Basically, what
we're hoping to accomplish with the site is to provide a place to
capture the incredible bike racing scene here that is neglected by the
media. Yes, cyclingnews.com does a great job with the National and
European races, but what about us little guys? There are tons of
regional events that don't even get mentioned. This could be a nice
supplement to the ncncaracing.com race reports.

So please include content to the site - in most cases, your race
reports are more interesting than what the media puts together. If a
bunch of people contribute, it should really represent the cycling
community well. The site is moderated by me, but I don't plan on doing
any editing of content or anything like that. It's just a control in
place that prevents wackos from posting non-bike related stuff (i.e.
Viagra sales). Anyone can post, from the beginner to Pro. The more
content, the more interesting the site. You can even simply post a
link to your existing race reports (as I mention on the site, no sense
in duplicating your efforts). Don't forget some photos!

Please forward this message to other bike clubs/teams/riders, etc. If
there is demand for it, we'll get a fancy website and domain name.
Right now it is very simple and lacks major bells and whistles - but it
is effective (and free!). If you have some ideas for improving the
site, forward it to me as well. Suggestions are definitely welcome!

Thanks!

Mike

And take out those overexuberant fans...

How's about incorporating "live update" on the website, so my wife can follow my position from home in the 4/5 group at Ward's Ferry? :)

Oh and you'll probably be able to recruit a correspondent or two to contribute to your site.
