The summer AOA/DEVO Short Track Series Continues Tonight!

Here is what local pro Travis Brown had to say when he first learned of the series:

“I am really happy that the DEVO Short Track series is starting up. There is not a more efficient use of time on a bike to get in race shape than a weekly short track effort. I don’t have the time to train that I once did but I can still get close to my peak form on a lot less volume when I build the week of riding around short tracks. I will be at every one I am in town for.”

The races continue Wednesday evening and run until August 26th.

Where:Factory Trails on the Fort Lewis Campus.

Register: 30 minutes before the race.

Schedule: 5:30 B’s, 6:00 Kids Fun, 6:30 A’s. The course will change week to week.

Cost: $10 per race charge benefits the Durango DEVO junior development team. A preseason pass for $100 can be purchased for the 12 races.
