Wednesday, June 1, 2011 *Update - Craziest weather of any TT I've put on. Racers rode through a wonderful mix of rain, hail, and slush. This also made for a current flowing down the hill. Great job to those that came out. You are all bad ass. Tonights TT is happening. Had to cancel last weeks Crit because of weather, but we can race a Time Trial in the rain. No Problem. See you there.
Wednesday, May 25, 2011 I'm offering 9 more crits in Bend this summer. So not to worry, you'll get plenty of racing. Next week is the first Hillclimb TT. Friday, May 6, 2011 Changes in the TT Series. Take a look. Now we're going Cumulative Series time of the top 4 races in the Series. Go to the TT Series for more details. Wednesday, May 4, 2011 Just finished up this seasons STXC Series. It was a blast. Thanks to all that came out to support the races. Thanks especially to Cog Wild for supporting tonights races with Free Shuttle Passes to each of the winners of tonight. And check out Cog Wilds Fremont National Forest Epic in September. Now its time to start getting ready for the road. Time Trial Series starts next week in SE Bend. A 7 mile loop of fast rolling terrain with some of the best views of the Cascades. Wednesday, April 20, 2011 Tonight marked the start to this years bike race season. We kicked things off with the STXC Series. This years series will be held at Central Oregon Community College. All I can say about tonights race was that the conditions were near perfect. Great way to start this season. Thanks for all that came out and I hope to see more of you next week. Saturday, March 26, 2011 This weekend has been dedicated to preping for the upcoming race season. I'm offering a full schedule this summer. You'll see some new races on the schedule, while other races will have some changes this year. I'm also making some changes to the website. So keep checking in to see the latest info on this summers races.

Wednesday, June 16, 2010 Well I'm just finishing the results for the kick-off to this seasons Crit Series. Not a bad showing, given the weather. It was chilly with a cool breeze blowing. Next week will be our first Hillclimb. Starting at the Entrada Lodge on Century Dr, we'll race up the hill 9 miles, finishing at Meissner Sno-Park. $10 for each racer with the first off at 6pm. Registration will open at 5pm at the Start area.
Tuesday, June 8, 2010 As most know, tomorrow was to be the start of this seasons Central Oregon Crit Series. I, unfortunately, smashed my body into the ground while I was mountain biking today and realized that I'm not going to be ok to put tomorrows race on. I messed myself up pretty good. I apologize for this inconvenience, but this was an unplanned happening for sure. So next Wednesday, June 16, will mark the start of the Series. Barring the avoidance of catastrophe at Ashland Super D.

Friday, April 24, 2009:
Hi folks. The start of the
Time Trial Series is upon us. Only 5 days away. Take a look at
the website for details...
Wednesday, April 15, 2009: We’re getting close. 2 weeks to the start of the Time Trial Series. The MTB Short Track Series starts the following Tuesday. Race times and locations have been posted.
Monday, March 23, 2009: As things seem to be warming up around here, race season is approaching rapidly. April 29 marks the beginning of the Central Oregon Racing season. First on the schedule is the Time Trial Series on Wednesdays for six weeks. Beginning May 5 is the STXC Series. This series will continue on the First and Third Tuesdays through the summer. Course, cost, prize, and other details are being confirmed with the final announcements coming soon. So if you haven’t started training for this season, you’d better start that soon.
Friday, March 13, 2009: More information about this summer’s races. Visit the FEATURED EVENTS page for dates, times, and more.
Tuesday, February 10, 2009: As winter seems to be returning, it’s time to catch you up on this season’s race schedule. The newest addition to the schedule is the Triple Threat Stage Race. This will consist of 3 running races in 2 days. Saturday, August 15 will start with an individual TT in the morning, and a Road Race in the evening. The final stage will be a Trail Race on Sunday morning. Stay tuned for more details.
Sunday, January 11, 2009: Hi folks. Just got back from Mt Bachelor where the Winter Triathlon National Championships were held. Central Oregon Racing was brought in for timing this year’s event. Things went as smooth as any race I've been a part of. Bill Warburton is responsible for a fantastic event this year. Results are now available.
Tuesday, December 16, 2008: Winter is here, finally. I guess we can finally put a close to the 2008 season. Time to start looking ahead to 2009. If you're looking for something to get you fit through the winter, there are plenty of options around. Depending on the weather in town, running can be a fun option. East of town is generally a good place to get away from the snow. Cross country skiing is a great way to get fit, regardless of your focus in the summer. If you need advice on equipment, where to ski or even some good workouts, email me. Winter is also the best time of year to focus on strength training. The thing to remember is you don't want a lot of power in your routine. If the focus is spring/summer, now is the time for low weight/high reps. So get to the gym now to get the most benefit. I will also be teaching a few activity classes at the college this winter. So if you're looking for a guided workout, take a look at what I'll be offering; on-snow skate skiing, spinning, and a functional training based circuit class. Enjoy the snow and have a Happy Holiday season!
Sunday, November 16, 2008: 2009 schedule is starting to come together. Things will be different this coming year with more race options for athletes to participate in.

- Starts April 29
Sunday, November 16, 2008: Independent Herbalife Distributor, Heather Dietrich in conjunction with Central Oregon Racing are making efforts to raise money for the Boys and Girls Club reopening. As you may know the Boys and Girls club had to close their doors and need to raise $150,000 by the end of November in order to reopen their doors in December. They need the help of the community to achieve this goal. That is why we will donate 90% of profit of all Herbalife products purchased during the month of November to the Boys and Girls Club.

Fall 2008: We're wrapping up another season of racing for the 2008 season. Winters starting to set in and its time to start looking ahead to next seasons races. Details are still being worked out, but I am planning to bring back the C.O. Racing TT Series. I'll also being adding a Mountain Bike Short Track Series on Tuesdays, alternating weeks with my Running Series. I will also be holding the 2nd annual NWX Friday Night Crit. A C.O. Racing Cyclocross Omnium is also looking likely for Fall 2009. That will involve an Individual Time Trial, a standard Cross Race, and finishing with a Roubaix.
Spring 2008: Welcome to Central Oregon Racing. Here you'll find a full race schedule for cycling, running, skiing, triathlons, and more. I have posted links for race information, results, training information, and links to some great local supporters of racing. As the summer race season comes to a close, the fall offers us plenty of racing excitement. Enjoy the cooler weather, and get out on those trails before the snow takes over. It won't be long now. Have a look around the site and let me know what you think. Also, please let me know if there are any races that you don't find on here. In addition to this site I am also a race promoter. As a racer, I feel that I understand the important aspects to putting on a race, and I pride myself in getting results posted as fast as I can. So if you're an organization hoping to put on a race or you have some great race ideas, shoot me an email. That's it for now.
