The 2006 Nebraska Lottery Psycowpath Series continues on Saturday at one of the Parks most popular venues in Bellevue, NE. The Swanson River City Shootout, hosted by the Cycling Club of Nebraska, has traditionally been one of the largest races in the series.
Swanson Park; Bellevue, NE
THE COURSE: This "flat" course was built a few years ago for bikers and equestrians and it's the perfect place to introduce you to mountain bike racing. It's a fast, flowing course of mostly single track with some really nice technical sections including log crossings, g-outs and triple bowls. It loops tightly within a relatively small area, so you're never far from the start. Race loop is approximately 4 miles for all levels.
THE VENUE: Swanson Park has a nice playground for the kiddies and lots of open field for them or your dog to run. There is a porta-potty on location and a large shaded shelter with tables. This is a great place to walk dog or hike the trails and watch the racers battle it out up close.
Directions to Swanson Park, Bellevue, NE:
Take Hwy 75 south from I-80 to the Cornhusker Rd. exit. Go west on Cornhusker to approximately 34th St . Look for a brick sign with scrolling red letters for the Fire Department Training Center. Turn north and the park entrance is about 75 yards down the road on the left.
Races for beginners and juniors starts at 10am. Races for Expert and Sport riders starts at noon.
The Nebraska Lottery Psycowpath Series features 8 total events, five XC series events and three Marathon events. The Swanson River City Shootout is the second XC event in the series. For more details, download the "race bible" here .
