The EPIC PERRY-ROUBAIX


HELLO! There is a HUGE RV rally the same weekend as our race in Perry at the Fairgrounds. Therfore, Our race hotel has been moved NORTH into Perry to ease the flow of traffic around the Fairgrounds. Race Hotel has been changed to exit 136 at the Quality Inn - 1504 Sam Nunn Blvd, Perry, GA 31069. Call 478-987-1345 for GC rates of $58.64 per night! Here is a list of other hotels/motels in Perry - http://www.perryga.com/hotels.html.

We are looking for 5 lead cars and 5 wheel trucks for the RR on Sunday. If you or someone you know is interested please contact casey@swagger.us.

Saturday's 1.35 mile Circut race will have MAR points awarded for the Omnium and the Series (TBA). Although it is a 1.35 mile loop and considered a RR, it will be scored as a Crit but there will NOT be any free laps.

Sunday's Perry-Roubiax RR will have MAR's on EVERY lap past the Start Finish! The FEED ZONE will be located approximately 100 yards off the corner of Perry Parkway and MLK (Elko Road) - So, when you turn RIGHT off of Perry Parkway onto MLK (Elko Road) the FEED ZONE will be located ahead on the right. This should give everyone ample time to slow after the MAR at the start finish.

The KOM will be located at the top of the MLK (Elko Road) climb and BEFORE you turn right onto Gilbert Road. Every lap will be a KOM so be ready to race! ____________________________________________________________________
