Winter Bike Series race for 2/20 Cancelled, Icy River Rampage is a go with a change of venue

As many of you probably assumed, the Winter Bike Series Alaska State Championship race scheduled for 2/20 at Kincaid has been cancelled. It is one thing to ride on ice in a straight line, its quite another thing to race glazed ice on twisty singletrack. We don't like canceling races, but unfortunately, the lack of winter is making that decision. Our goal in putting these races on is to provide a competitive platform for riders of all skill levels to push themselves safely. However, the conditions are not safe for all skill levels, especially not at speed. 

On a positive note, the Icy River Rampage is still on and rescheduled for 2/21 at a new race venue. Check their Friends of Eagle River Nature Center Facebook page link for more details.
