BKXC strikes again! Another score for local trails!

27/01/2024

Strait Circle Team practice is in its 4th week and our first race is the Weekend of March 1st. It will be the “Fun at the Fort”. (Fort Ord in Monterey CA.) Home of the Lightfighters.
Smooth winding trails that drain well under trees hanging with Spanish moss. Also really good spectating to watch the racers. We are training hard to be ready using the great hills and trails of Benicia and the Strait Circle! Follow us and keep up!

Hello Team and Fans!
FINAL NOTICE
The 2024 Jersey Kits are available on-line now. They are from Hyperthreads . I just bought a new hoody and an extra Race Tee to practice in.

FYI Norcal Racers are required to have matching team jerseys for Races. We only get one chance to order and it is now. This event was extended since I was the only one to order! After Jan 31 no more orders!
https://hyperthreads.com/team-stores/strait-circle/

Please know that we designed our Kits but they are purchased from Hyperthreads in bulk orders. We do not make any money on them. YOU DO NEED to get them ordered right away.
I always recommend that riders practice in jerseys and padded shorts or bibs. It identifies us in the community but really they are the right kind of clothes to ride in. It's how I practice.
Having an extra jersey is well worth it and they last through 100s of washings!
Purchase the "Race Tee Shirt" style for practice and Race Cut Jersey for race day. Go all out and get the cool bike shorts with our logo as well! (Padded black shorts are OK too.)

Hello Strait Circle Team and Team Fans,

If you want to help support a future rider please buy a small or medium for a rider to be named later. We will stock them for those last minute riders and we thank you in advance. We only get one chance to order and it is now.

Here's the bad news though...
Some important date considerations… in order be 100% sure gear will arrive by the first race weekend we are supposed to process our orders by 12/20. Our offices will be closed 12/21-12/26. If we get the order towards the end of the year or the first week of January there is a fair chance it will still arrive in time but we can’t be 100% sure due to the production holiday in February.

Saturday November 4th I’m signing up for this trail work day on the Bay Area Ridge Trail. The link is below. Teen and Team Trail Hours available if you sign up and go. Best of all it is one one of our local trails!
The plan is to remove the stair boards at the bottom of the Carquinez Bridge Descent into Glen Cove. To make that rideable right down to the Marina. I’d like that!

Join the Ridge Trail and the City of Vallejo for a fun day of trail work at the Carquinez Strait Trail! Activities will include i nstalling switchbacks and improving grading on existing stairs above the Glen Cove Marina . Lunch & raffle drawing provided at the end of the day.
