The idea for this web page started as a book about racing in Northern California. Liz Chapman came up with the idea and got me involved. Then, we both kind of floundered due to other commitments and general laziness. But now, here it is back from the dead.
The information in these pages comes from my 13 years of racing here in Nor-Cal. I've done all of these races a number of times (including about 15 races on the Land Park circuit) and everything here is to the best of my memory. Some of the distances might be a little off, but accurate information will be in the NCNCA newsletter and the NCNCA web page. The exception is Copperopolis. Having your computer read 100 miles when you're still a half a lap from the finish is NOT something you easily forget! If you find a glaring error please e-mail me with a correction. If you're a woman and have some "Specific advice for women racers:" for a certain race, please e-mail me the info and I'll add it. In a lot of these races I'm sure there's not much to say on that issue, but on others? Who knows.
