Who put this racetrack on our lawn?

It was a bit of a shock to see the yard covered in caution tape. And then a bunch of guys and gals in spandex started zooming around on bikes.

It’s not the strangest thing that’s ever happened here, but it’s close.

On September 4th, Socket held the first Columbia Cyclocross Training event on our grounds. About 35 racers came out to practice, including one of our employees, Josh, who asked if he could borrow the lawn on Tuesday evenings. And, well… here we are.

Other sponsors include Big Tree CyclingWalt's Bike ShopThe Columbia Bike ClubCycleXtremeKlunk CyclesTryathletics, and Big Shark. The series will be running on Tuesday evenings this fall at 6 p.m. with a riding clinic at 5:30 p.m.
