Party at Pot Pie

Cow Town Cycling had their annual spring party this past weekend. John and Sarah Williams of Pot Pie hosted a very fine event with a great turnout of new and old teammates. Some great plans were laid out for the season and lots of prizes were up for grabs.

Special thanks to our sponsors for the evening: Pot Pie, Cow Town Cycling & MultiSport Marketing.

God's Country Off-Road Duathlon

The Cow Town Cycling Team and Jewel Cartoons would like to invite you

has been offering up “Fat Tire” fun from beginners to experts alike.
Come join in the fun on April 10, 2011 at the Lawrence River Trails
and start your multisport season off with us.

This year we are focusing on a well-organized fun event that anyone
can do and will not break the bank. For an entry fee of only $30.00
you get a multi-sport event with chip timing. Where else can you find
that? Entry fee includes one-day license, custom awards, post-race
refreshments/food and a delightful course that any ability level will
enjoy.
