2011 Snowman Re-Cap

Thanks to all the teams that came out on Saturday to brave the cold and wind for this year's race! The costumes and themes were by far the best yet...it's safe to say next year we'll be adding a "Top Three" to the Costume/Team Theme category at the awards ceremony. The event was able to raise $300 for Portland Trails. Help spread the word as we look to gain more momentum and build this unique event into a Portland winter classic.

Snowman Bike Leg Update
Wednesday, 16 February 2011 21:40
Upon evaluating the conditions of the cove path and in order to accommodate all levels of bikers (novice to experienced with studded tires) participants will have the opportunity to duck off the path onto Baxter Blvd between Hannaford and the 295 On-Ramp. However, those riders choosing to enter onto the pavement at anytime will incur a time penalty to be determined Saturday and will not be in the running for the coveted Snowman Mugs. We anticipate the Cove path conditions to improve with the incoming thaw, but this option will let anyone who wants to enter the race to do so and be comfortable from a safety standpoint. See you Saturday!
(Note: Riders must still be on mountain bikes!)
