The 2011 Gateway Tire & Service Criterium Race Series is a new and exciting approach to our annual criterium series. The month of May hosts the MOAB Training Series on May 11th and 25th while June boasts the Endeavor Performance Beginner Night on June 1st. The Smoothie King of Belle Meade Sizzler Series wraps up the month of June on the 15th, 22nd and 29th. The month of July for the Gateway Tire & Service Criterium Race Series hosts a whopping six dates and kicks off with the Endeavor Performance Be There or Get Slower Series on July 2nd and 3rd, followed by the MOAB Firecracker Series on July 6th, 13th, 20th and 27th. The series wraps up in August with the Smoothie King of Belle Meade Dog Days of Summer Series on the 10th, 17th, 20th and 24th. Start time for the first race on Wednesdays is at 5:30 PM with longer race durations, but start times for all categories vary throughout the series to utilize daylight efficiently. All racers must pay close attention to the start times and categories offered on each date, otherwise you may show up on the wrong night or possibly miss your start time! There are special events throughout the Gateway Tire & Service Criterium Race Series planned to engage the entire community of bicyclists. On Wednesday, June 1st there is the Endeavor Performance Beginner Night & Clinic, which will focus on welcoming new racers to the series by offering a skills clinic followed by the first Category 5 race of the series. We all know riders who have shown an interest in racing, so invite them to Beginner Night on June 1st. On Wednesday, July 6th we have our Endeavor Performance Ladies Night & Clinic to focus on introducing new women with a skills clinic, and a Women Category 4 only race followed by a full Women 1-4 race. We have spent considerable time to help grow women racing the past couple of years, and Ladies Night will be one more step to help that "endeavor." We hope every local women specific team will step up and help make this a successful evening. Let’s make it memorable! At the end of each race will be the Words Go Here results and podium presentation! After each race the championship belt and tiara will be awarded to the series leader of each category. The series leaders will get to keep the belt and tiara for the entire week, but they must come back the following week to defend! As usual, the final omnium winners will get to keep the belt and tiara until the 2012 season begins. Racers must be present for the Words Go Here podium presentation to receive payouts and awards. Other cool features are our four planned Masters 35+ races on June 1st, July 2nd, 3rd and 6th. On the weekend series dates we will also have a Kids 10 and under race on both days! Back for 2011 is the Bank of America Team Omnium competition, USAC upgrade points, Juniors race FREE, race course variations, weekly primes, and rainout contingencies. After the final race on August 24th we have the Bank of America Podium Awards presentation along with free food for all attendees. Cumberland Transit is sponsoring DJ Modo to handle the mic and throw down some tunes to keep the scene lively! One notable weekly prime prize being offered is a $25 Be My Guest award from J Alexander's!
