Race Notes from the promoter
Please use the sanitary facilities provided at the parking area and the Start/Finish line. There are Cameras on the buildings along the course, and anyone or your guests/fans caught not using the facilities will cause racers to have their race number suspended and you will be banned from the series. I have talked to all the businesses on the course and they will be checking their surveillance videos.
Please don’t be part of the problem.
Thanks! And have a great race!
Matt Stuart

Who was Matt "Waz"/"Clydesdale" Waskiewicz?
Matt was a beloved member of the GHCC and Team ERRACE. He was a selfless volunteer for the club and teams, along with his wife Lisa. Matt was always the first to volunteer when help was needed, especially carrying heavy things and running errands. Matt was an original coach of the CCAP ERRACERs road and cyclocross teams and was the coach who got the best out of every rider, especially the quiet ones who needed an extra push and confidence boost.
Matt loved to race criteriums and when he went to Kissena Velodrome to try track racing, he said "I finally found the bike racing for the big guys!" In his short time at Kissena, he made many friends, usually bringing pastries and cakes for racers, spectators and officials. He loved attacking the downhills on the Saturday shop ride and grumbled when the skinny guys attacked the climbs.
Matt's loss has left a hole in our teams and our hearts but his legacy lives on through the juniors he coached and the friends he made along the way.
