Cat's Hill Classic Bicycle Race in Los Gatos May 3rd

If you took Driver's Ed in Saratoga or Los Gatos, you were probably made to park on the steepest hill around - Nicholson Avenue. Positively frightening! But local bicycle enthusiasts take on Nicholson not with motor vehicles, but on their bikes in a race that has become a Los Gatos classic - the Cat's Hill Classic.  A Belwood area neighbor of mine asked me to help get the word out on this fantastic and fun event, so below please find their announcement.

Date : Saturday - May 3, 2008

Time : Registration booth opens at 8:30 AM and closes 15 min. prior to each race.

Directions : HWY 17/880 south from San Jose. Take the Los Gatos-Monte Sereno (Hwy 9) Exit. Turn left on N. Santa Cruz Avenue. Go three blocks to Nicholson. Turn right to the start/finish.

Parking: Racers and visitors, please do not park in any merchant lots!! Use the Park & Ride lot north of Highway 9 and street parking out side of the course. Free bike parking is available at the corner of Tait and Bachman.

Course: Same course as always. Tait-Bean-Massol-Nicholson/Ellenwood-Belmont-Bachman-Tait, clockwise one-mile loop with the Start/Finish line at Tait and Nicholson. One very steep climb (23%), five 90o right turns and one 90 degree left turn. Rough pavement! Free lap rule applies; bring your own (strong) wheels.

Registration :Registration will be available (via www.catshill.org) on www.sportsbaseonline.com. A $5 fee will be charged after April 26 and on the day of the race. SugarCRM Breakaway Series T-shirts available for $10 on race day. A current USCF license must be presented at registration (one-day or annual USCF licenses may be purchased at registration). For additional information email catshillclassic@gmail.com.

Kids Race: Registration for the kid's race opens at 8:30 AM and closes at 11:30 AM. Parents should stage at Bean and Tait between 12:15-12:20 PM. Volunteers will be present to assist you with your children.

Notes: 1. Participation in multiple categories entitles you to a reg. discount of $10 per additional race.
2. District champion fees will not be waived. 3. This race is held under USCF permit.

Prizes : 1/2/3 Women and Pro/1/2/U23 men prize categories will pay out at 100% cash
