Do you like to ride mountain bikes? Do you like to go fast on your mountain bike? Do you think you have what it takes to beat the Quad Cities finest? Do you like to drink beer? If you said yes to any of these questions then you should come out and give it a go during the 2014 FORC Time Trial Series!
The plan is to hold 6 regular season races where points will be awarded & tallied throughout the series to determine the Regular Season Points Champion. After the regular season is complete, we will hold a Championship Race where the course will be longer than the regular season courses to determine the FORC Time Trial Champion. There will be small prizes for winning the championships, but main goal of this series is to get everybody together to have fun and ride bikes...so please don't take it TOO serious. Let me know if you have any questions!
