LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR

Transcription

1 LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR On behalf of the race committee, welcome to the 41st edition of the Joe Martin Stage Race. For those who are first time participants, we want to thank you for making the trip. We salute the dedication and hard work of the many men and women, as well as the vision and determination of one of the original race directors, Joe Martin. Joe was truly passionate about all things cycling and we continue to honor his legacy today. THANK YOU JOE! This is our 16th consecutive year to be part of the USA Cycling Pro Road Tour (PRT) and fourth year on the UCI America Tour calendar. The Joe Martin Stage Race has been and continues to be successful because of your support as teams and individuals. We feel very fortunate to once again have some of the top cyclists not only from across the USA, but from around the world competing in Northwest Arkansas. The continued goal of the Joe Martin Stage Race is to bring a nationally and internationally competitive field of cyclists to our area and to expose our community to an exciting, colorful sport. I encourage you to enjoy some of the local flavor, get to know our residents, and take in some of the beautiful countryside as you re rolling past. And we invite you and your family to return to our area for vacation or maybe even relocate to one of the best places on Earth... or so we think! It is an honor and a privilege to have each of you at our race, and we hope and pray that you will have a safe, successful weekend. Please give our volunteers, our race committee or me feedback on how we can continue to make the race even better in the years to come. Best of luck and God bless, Bruce Dunn Race Director Joe Martin (left), Eddy Merckx and Span Wilson at the 1982 Coors Classic. 3
