Fat Tire Fiesta And Triathlon Preparations in High Gear
Striders And Riders premier events, the Socorro Fat Tire
Fiesta and the Socorro Chile
Harvest Triathlon are both coming up soon. Both events
are also in need of volunteers; if you're interested in
helping out at two of Socorro (and New Mexico's) finest
sporting events, contact us at matt@pmc-inc.com. In
particular, the Fat Tire Fiesta is looking for people who
can make trail traces for the ride maps.

Week in Review
Since the last posting, we've had what seems to have been
a busy week. The Hash House Harriers met at the Brew Pub
last week for our last dead trail hash. We chased around
the south end of town this time, stopping for two beer
checks before returning to the pub for refreshments. Next
time: live hare!
Mike Dennis competed in the ACA state road race
championships last weekend near Laguna. Mike hung on
during the climbs, but his light body didn't help on the
descents, and he finished in eight place in his age group.
I hope I'm not jumping the gun, but there's a new bike
shop in the works for Socorro. I hope to have an official
announcement soon.
We met once again to clean up our section of US 60 on
Wednesday. This time, Robert, Catharine, Pat, Laura, Jim,
and Matt worked for about 45 minutes before it started to
rain. We waited in the rain for RAAM riders to pass by,
but it seems that our timing was off. About a month ago,
Mark, Mark, Cathy, and Matt cleaned up the hill
section. Thanks to everybody who helps with this little
project.
