Nature Valley Bike Race
June 14, 2009 SCVAA is a local sponsor of the Nature Valley Bike Race. Biking is a great youth & family activity. The event supports Children's Hospital and it's a wonderful opportunity to learn about biking and meet world class riders. Kristin Armstrong was here in June '08 and then went on to win Olympic gold in China.
Watch the riders compete on a challenging course right here in Stillwater. Cheer them on as they fly down 3rd Street and pedal up Chilkoot Hill.   Kristin Armstrong, three-time Nature Valley Grand Prix champion, former Worlds gold and silver medalist who has her sights set on finishing her career (on the bike) with another gold at Worlds.
