SUGARBUSH TRAIL ASSOCIATION FORMS ON THE NORTH SHORE Minnesota The Sugarbush Trail, located above Tofte, Minnesota, on
Lake Superior's North Shore, offers cross country skiing at its finest. Unfortunately, last winter this fine trail was the victim of ATV vandalism. This incident was the catalyst which led to the formation of the
Sugarbush Trail Association. The mission of the association is to bring people together and raise funds to help protect this fine system. The
association will strive to improve and protect the existing ski trail system and develop a single track mountain bike trail, as well as taking over athletic events like the North Shore Mountain Challenge Ski Race,
which was canceled last year as a result of the trail vandalism and lack of snow.
Association members are Jeff Lynch of Sawtooth Outfitters in Tofte,
and trail groomer for the Sugarbush system; Joe Stasney, a passionate cross country skier from Schroeder; and Greg Fangel, former president of the North Star Ski Club and new homeowner near Tofte.
The Sugarbush Trail Association is planning an information booth and raffle at the 4th of July festival in Tofte, with the prize being a mountain bike donated by Sawtooth Outfitters.
For more information about the Sugarbush Trail Association, visit www.sugarbushtrail.org or contact Lynch at Sawtooth Outfitters, 218/663 7643, e mail at info@sawtoothoutfitters.com.

SKI HALL OF FAME HOSTS ART CONTEST
Michigan The U.S. National Ski Hall of Fame and Museum is
sponsoring a poster contest.
"We will award $500 to the artist who creates the poster selected by a jury to commemorate our 50th anniversary," says Ray Leverton, Hall of
Fame curator/manager. The artwork will become the promotion centerpiece for the winter celebration that includes the annual Hall of Fame induction ceremony on Friday, January 23, at Peterson Auditorium in Ishpeming.
"Nothing makes the planet more beautiful than snow," claims Frida Waara, development director. "It's only natural that as we prepare to
celebrate our golden anniversary, we partner with artists who have also been inspired by winter and our rich ski history."
Since 1905, and the founding of the National Ski Association,
Ishpeming has been designated the birthplace of organized skiing in America.
"Most people ask why the Ski Hall of Fame is in Ishpeming and not
Aspen, Sun Valley or Vail," says Waara. "But our ski history is much older than stretch pants, chair lifts and safety bindings," she adds. "It's a
product of the hearty Scandinavians who came here to mine our iron and copper and introduced us to skiing."
Ishpeming is also home to the oldest active ski club in the United States.
"Next January between the Masters Cross Country Championships, Hall of Fame induction, Noquemanon Ski Marathon, jumping exhibitions and the alpine events at Marquette Mountain, we're going to have a
community filled with skiers," claims Evelyn Valente, assistant manager. "What better way to accent our rich ski heritage than with art."
A slide of the artwork to be considered for the poster is due to the Ski Hall of Fame and Museum, 610 Palms Avenue, Ishpeming, MI 49849, by Monday, September 8.
For more information and submission forms call the Ski Hall of Fame at 906/485 6323 or connect to skihall@uplogon.com.

HAYWARD HALF MARATHON OFFERS 10K BIRKIE TRAIL RUN
Wisconsin You've skied it ... you've biked it ... now run the Birkie Trail. The Aquafina Hayward Half Marathon announces the first Backroads
Boogie, a 10K trail run on the Birkebeiner trail. The trail run will be held on the second day of this year's Hayward Half Marathon Mega Weekend, slated for September 6 7. It will be an out and back course,
from Hatchery Creek Park to Mosquito Brook, and then finishing back at the Hatchery.
Named for its title sponsor, Backroads Coffee and Tea in Hayward, the
Backroads Boogie trail run completes a weekend extravaganza of three great races for both runners and walkers. There will be Best of Both awards for the top male and female finishers of the Aquafina Hayward
Half Marathon and the Backroads Boogie. "We have been planning on doing a trail run on the Birkie trail since we started the Aquafina Hayward Half Marathon in 2001," says Susan
Kendrick, one of the event directors. "We wanted to be sure the half marathon was up and going as a high quality event before branching out to add this component. A lot of runners and walkers prefer road races,
but a lot also like to get out on the trail. Now we truly have something for everyone. Adding the trail run also encourages even more of our participants, their friends and families to spend the whole weekend in
Hayward."
"It's perfect timing for a run on the Birkie trail. September is gorgeous," says local skier, biker and runner Diane Tremblay, last year's top female
finisher in the Aquafina Hayward Half Marathon. "This is also a great section of the trail hills both ways, just the way I like it good running and
great training for ski season. A 10K is just right. I plan to run both races this year."
Last year the Hayward Half Marathon added a 5K race to its lineup to
give short distance runners and walkers a way to participate. Proceeds from this race were donated to Special Olympics of Hayward. This year, proceeds from the 5K race will be donated to Habitat for
Humanity of Sawyer County.
The weekend lineup starts with the Aquafina Hayward Half Marathon and 5K on Saturday morning. The half marathon course, a 13.1 mile
loop, starts and ends on Hayward's Main Street, joins the legendary tradition of this area's great races. This beautiful and challenging course is widely known by local runners, bikers and skiers as a great cross
training route. Now in its third year, the Hayward Half Marathon is already considered one of the premier races in the upper Midwest.
September is a great time for a half marathon. Many runners use the
Hayward Half Marathon to train for full marathons such as the Twin Cites, Chicago and Whistlestop marathons. Chip timing will again be used for both Saturday races as well as the new trail run.
The new Backroads Boogie will give back to the community, like the Hayward Half Marathon, which gives $250 to each of five area youth groups that man water stations. The new trail run will have at least one
water station and possibly other support functions manned by area youth groups who will also receive cash awards for their help. Please contact the Hayward Half Marathon if your group is interested in finding out
more about this opportunity.
For more information about the Aquafina Hayward Half Marathon Mega Weekend, including the new Backroads Boogie trail run on the Birkie, please visit www.haywardhalfmarathon.com or call 715/634 0012.

TOUR DE FORT METRIC CENTURY SLATED FOR SUNDAY, AUGUST 17
Wisconsin For the 17th year in a row, the Jefferson County Bicycle Club (which used to be called the Tour de Fort Bicycle Club) is once
again putting on one of the best and most scenic rides in southern Wisconsin. Co sponsors include Johnson Bank and Fort Atkinson Memorial Health Services. With distances of 15, 33 and 61 miles,
almost all in Jefferson County, you will have the opportunity to bike along the Rock River, take a break at the historic Aztalan Park with its Indian effigy mounds, museum and fort, pass by Rock and Ripley lakes
(and maybe stop for a dip!), and visit the quaint village of Cambridge.
But that's only part of it. Munch on bagels and juice before the start, buy
a chance for bike trail development to win a new Trek bike and other prizes, check out the incredibly healthy rest stops, and end the ride with
the gift of a ticket to the local Lions chicken and corn feed. On top of all that, you can order a commemorative T shirt to prove you were there.
The Jefferson County Bicycle Club also believes in safety and service. The Tri County Amateur Radio Club will provide communications along the route, the Black Hawk Chapter 409 Vietnam Veterans will maintain
the food stops, and Quiet Hut will provide the sag wagons.
Take time, if you haven't already, to come and enjoy the hospitality of a small town with a love for biking. The ride starts at 8:30 a.m. on
Sunday, August 17, at Jones Park in Fort Atkinson. For details, check the Web site at www.jcbc.info, write to P.O. Box 464, Fort Atkinson, WI 53538, or call Phyllis at 920/563 5279 or Tim at Humphrey Floral
weekdays at 920/563 9231.

SUBARU ORE TO SHORE MTB EPIC ROUTE EFFECTED BY FLOODING
Michigan The fourth annual Subaru Ore to Shore Mountain Bike Epic, scheduled for August 9, is still on despite flooding of the Dead River.
The route has been minimally impacted by the damaging flood waters caused by a break in an earthen dam at the Silver Lake basin. The ripple effect of the break caused severe flooding all along the Dead River
leading into Lake Superior 25 miles downstream. The Tourist Park campground in Marquette near the finish line sustained major flooding and the destruction of the pedestrian/bike path bridge underneath
County Road 550 that was part of the Ore to Shore (O2S) trail.
"Because the bridge was washed away, we will have to change the
course slightly, but most bikers will appreciate the alteration," says Scott Tuma, O2S committee co chair. "The north side of the trail along the
Dead River was high enough not to be majorly impacted so we can bike through that area near ROTC rock and come out onto County Road 550. We'll then follow the road for less than one half mile before hitting
the Noquemanon Trail, bringing us to the Lakeview Arena. Of course, we'll be working with the city of Marquette to make sure the 550 bridge can be used and see what schedule of clean up will be followed. But we
don't foresee any major issues with this slight change. Actually, now racers will bike straight toward Lake Superior and can't possibly miss the great view in front of them."
The fourth annual Subaru Ore to Shore Mountain Bike Epic is expecting approximately 1,800 to 2,000 riders.
"Our number of registrants is nearly double what it was at this time last
year, so we expect to be very close to our field limit of 2,000 bikers," adds Rhea Dever, O2S co chair. "We were concerned with the Tourist
Park area of the trail, but initial surveys show that we'll be fine and racers will experience another great course in a beautiful wilderness area."
Course workers are also looking at other sections of the trail for changes not related to the flooding.
"We're talking to landowners in other areas to change the course so that
the bikers will be in the woods even more. We're also using the new section in Forestville that was used by the Subaru Noquemanon Ski Marathon. It'll offer a more varied terrain rather than a straight, flat
section that we had in the past," adds Tuma. "We're offering the best course yet this year and look forward to a very exciting O2S weekend of events."
For more information on the race, visit www.oretoshore.com or call 906/226 6591. Registration forms can be found online, at Midwest area sport stores, or by calling 888/578 6489. The Ore to Shore is a
Superiorland Ski Club event sponsored by Subaru, the Mining Journal , WLUC TV6 and Q107 WMQT.

SKI HALL CELEBRATES ANNIVERSARY
Michigan Snow had barely melted from the Iron Range in Upper Michigan as the U.S. National Ski Hall of Fame and Museum
(USNSHFM) began planning for next winter.
"Next January we'll celebrate our 50th anniversary," says curator/manager Ray Leverton, who has been a volunteer at the Hall of
Fame for over 30 years. "We anticipate skiers from all over the country, perhaps the world, will be in Marquette County to take part in this historic ski event."
Recently at a meeting in Park City, Utah, the USNSHFM Board of Directors voted to move the annual Ski Hall of Fame induction ceremony from September to January to coincide with the annual Noquemanon Ski Marathon.
"We want this show on the snow," says Frida Waara, development director. "With the U.S. Nordic Masters Championships here the week before the Noquemanon; it's perfect timing."
Jon Mommaerts, co founder of the Noquemanon Ski Marathon, agrees. "Moving the induction ceremony to a time when thousands of skiers come to Marquette County helps to really accent the ski history of our
area."
"We value Jon's ski experience and recently added him to our board of directors," adds Dave Holli, vice president of the USNSHFM Board of
Directors. Mommaert's five year success with the Noquemanon will be key to planning this anniversary celebration set for January 22 26, 2004.
Aside from the induction ceremony at Peterson Auditorium in
Ishpeming, the weekend will be filled with jumping, nordic, alpine and freestyle events.
"Where else outside of the Olympics can you see so much ski action?" asks Waara. "We have it all."
Since 1905, and the formation of the National Ski Association, Ishpeming has been called the birthplace of organized skiing in America. The first Ski Hall of Fame and Museum opened in 1954 and moved to
the current location on U.S. Highway 41 in 1992.
"We house the largest collection of recorded ski materials in the country," says Wes Wentela, Hall of Fame and Museum treasurer.
"We're also inviting all of our former inductees and their families to come back to Ishpeming," says Evelyn Valente, Ski Hall of Fame and Museum assistant manager. Valente will coordinate lodging and
transportation for the weekend.
That list of 331 honored members includes ski legends Stein Eriksen, Cindy Nelson, Suzee Chaffee, Phil and Steve Mahre, Warren Miller and Billy Kidd.
"Imagine if all those ski legends come to Ishpeming to celebrate with us," says Waara. "If you are a skier, you won't want to miss this salute to our sport."
For details on how you can become involved, contact the U.S. National Ski Hall of Fame and Museum ( www.skihall.org ) at 906/485 6323 or via e mail at skihall@uplogon.com.

NAROM AND GRABOWSKI VICTORIOUS IN CABLE AREA OFF ROAD CLASSIC
Wisconsin Brian Narom of Anoka, Minn., and Anne Grabowski of Minneapolis rode to victory in the eighth annual Cable Area Off Road
Classic mountain bike race on Saturday, May 17. Neither are strangers to mountain biking success in the Cable area. Narom is a past champion of the Off Road Classic and Grabowski has had several top finishes in
the Chequamegon Fat Tire Festival 40.
Sunny skies and fast trails greeted nearly 400 riders who registered for the 23 mile or 17 mile events. Both courses traversed the fire roads,
woods roads and single track trails between the start at the Lakewoods Resort and the finish in downtown Cable. Presented by the Cable Area Chamber of Commerce, the Classic is one of the first mountain bike
events of the season and is a much anticipated opportunity for racers to test themselves against each other and the great trails in the Cable area.
Narom edged out Ashland's Garrett Peltonen by only six seconds in one of the closest finishes in the history of the event. Their first and second place times were 1:20:22 and 1:20:28 respectively. They were followed
by another sprint finish between Jacob Stechman of Red Wing, Minn., and Shane Peltonen of Ashland. Stechman eked out third at 1:21:36, a scant three seconds ahead of the younger of the Peltonen brothers, who
finished fourth at 1:21:39. Tim Cardinal of Rochester, Minn., rounded out the top five finishing at 1:24:19.
For the women the finish was not nearly as close with Grabowski turning
in a dominating performance over past CAORC champion Cindy Bijold of Savage, Minn. In fact, Grabowski's 1:34:20 would have earned her a top 35 finish among the men. Bijold finished second, seven minutes back
at 1:41:21. She was followed by Kathy Haberman in third at 1:42:55. The top local rider among the women was Michelle Flanagan Haag of Seeley who finished fourth with a time of 1:43:40. Rounding out the top
five for the women was Dorothee Pfundt of Burlington, Wis.
In the short course, 17 mile companion event, Jimmy Feeley of Eagan, Minn., continued his streak of strong local performances, again
dominating the field. His 1:09:14 winning time found him at the finish line almost five minutes ahead of his nearest competition. Rick Mollgard of Red Wing, Minn., took second place honors at 1:14:07 and was
followed in third by Tim Pacholski of New Berlin, Wis., at 1:14:31. The top three women represented a wide range of age classes with Margaret Rankin Riley, 43, of Cross Plains, Wis., taking first place with
a time of 1:23:13, the 13th fastest time overall. Allison Bohn, 16, of Plymouth, Minn., who finished second, has been racing area events since she was 12. She continued her string of strong performance in this
year's Classic short course event with a time of 1:28:50. Madison, Wis. based Carolyn Senty, 54, is a perennial top finisher and took third place laurels with a time of 1:34:44.
In addition to the Cable Area Chamber of Commerce, the Cable Area Off Road Classic is made possible through the assistance of many area sponsors including the Lakewoods, Chequamegon Fat Tire Festival,
New Moon Bike Shop and Riverbrook Ski and Bike. Other cooperating sponsors include Accelerade, Cable Corner Bar, Chequamegon Communications Cooperative, Cresthill Resort,
Garmisch USA, State Bank of Drummond, Coops Pizza, Hayward Area Memorial Hospital, Mogasheen Resort, Quality Bicycle Products, Bayfield County Tourism, McKinney Realty, as well as the Cable Service Center, The County Journal , Sawyer County Record , Bon
Nuit Motel, Pizza Hut, Treeland Resorts, Wilde River Realty and Telemark Resort.
The Cable Area Chamber of Commerce wishes to extend a hearty thanks to these sponsors as well as to the over 60 volunteers who
helped make the event possible.
Complete results for the eighth annual Cable Area Off Road Classic can be viewed at www.itiming.com.

CHANGES IN STORE FOR LEDGE VIEW'S 2003 ESCARPMENT TOUR
Wisconsin The 16th annual Ledge View Nature Center Escarpment Tour, sponsored by the Calumet Nature Studies support group, will
have a different look this year. The ride, by design, had used a cloverleaf format for 15 years to minimize volunteer help and keep food costs down. If riders wanted mileage they would just go back out and do one
of the other loops. This year's Tower to Tower version on Sunday, August 10, will emulate the more common day ride format, and stretch from Ledge View's 60 foot observation tower south of Chilton to the
comparable 60 foot Parnell Tower in the northern unit of the scenic Kettle Moraine State Forest.
The ride will feature ride routes of 10, 20, 35, 50 and 70 miles through
some of the most enjoyable terrain in the area. Riders will experience enjoyable winding roads through terrific wooded areas, high vista overlooks, and incredible scenic views around Elkhart Lake and Crystal
Lake. All route lengths will feature mass starts at different departure times.
Many other new elements have been incorporated into this year's ride,
one of which is an optional pledge opportunity for those inclined to do more to help the center. Prizes will be offered as incentives as various levels.
There will be a breakfast for those early risers wanting to get out on the road, as well as a good spaghetti dinner for them on the return, and entertainment while they eat. In addition, because one of Ledge View's
unique features is caves, a free tour will be offered to those inclined to get down and dirty. Bring appropriate clothes.
For further details regarding pledge prizes, start times, costs, cave tour
times, etc., refer to Ledge View's Web site www.dotnet.com/~ledge or contact them at ledge@dotnet.com.

12 HOURS OF GREEN IN DULUTH
Minnesota Have you ever wondered what it would ultimately require to follow Lance up L'Alps du Huez on your bike? Perhaps you have
thought about what's required to push your personal envelope in an endurance event. Or possibly you have already entertained ideas regarding what it would take to ride your mountain bike for all or at least
part of a full 12 hours?
The opportunity to do just that will be yours as the first ever 12 Hours of Green Mountain Bike Race (www.greenmanfestival.com/12hour ) is set
to play out Saturday, July 12. This endurance event, which starts promptly at 7 a.m. (yes, plenty of java will be available) and runs through to 7 p.m., will no doubt be a highlight of an amazing and
challenging weekend. The race is part of the Green Man Outdoor Music Festival, and runs from Friday, July 11, through Sunday, July 13. The event takes place at Spirit Mountain Recreation Area in Duluth, Minn.
The mountain bike course consists of an approximate 8 mile lap which will route the athletes adjacent to the live music every lap. The course consists of a nice blend of challenging yet tasty single track; fire road
climbs; fast, flat double track; and scenic, flowing, wooded descents. The course is designed to bring the athlete into direct contact with Spirit
Mountain's spectacular natural resources of forest, rock and water, with views of Lake Superior and the St. Louis River in the distance. All of
these will subsequently enhance the overall experience each athlete will undergo. The 12 Hours of Green staff have endeavored to provide the athletes all the richness the area has to offer.
The Green Man Festival is about the amalgamation of music, art and sport culture brought together in a single place and time. Designed to entertain, challenge, strengthen and enlighten, the festival is committed to
bringing people together in a manner where they will be witnessing true art in all its contemporary forms and transmogrifications. There will be
Green Radio, a half pipe, rock climbing, an uphill trail run, an Ultimate Frisbee tournament, free camping, green artisans, ongoing art, Chicks on
Sticks and native drumming. Healthy food and drink vendors will also be on hand.
Key to the Green Man Festival is the music. This year there are 30 plus
bands of either national or regional renown. Headlining acts include the jam band and highly likable Leftover Salmon, as well as local favorites
turned big time: the Big Wu. Other local and national bands are slated to perform as well. The music will be featured on two separate stages and
will run from Friday afternoon and evening, Saturday morning through to late evening and Sunday morning. A Spirit Service will also be conducted Sunday morning.
Bring your tribe and check out the vibe! The Green Man Festival and the 12 Hours of Green Mountain Bike Race are going to be presented freely to all.

NORTHERN HIGHLAND TOUR BRINGS PAVED TRAIL CLOSER TO COMPLETION
Wisconsin Riders in the second annual Northern Highland Bike Tour
Saturday, Aug. 2, will be helping bring to completion a paved bike trail linking the northwoods towns of Boulder Junction and Sayner.
Sponsored by the Sayner Star Lake Lions Club, the tour is a major fund
raiser toward a goal of $56,000, the amount needed to go with a $260,000 grant awarded the club and the town of Plum Lake last year by the Department of Transportation.
The ride will feature three loops this year blacktop road courses of 16 and 41 miles, along with a 20 mile hybrid ride that will include 11 miles of blacktop riding along with nine miles of dirt, back road riding.
The tour is one of the most scenic anywhere in Wisconsin, leading riders past several of the north country's most beautiful lakes, on the 41 mile
ride along County Highway K a designated Rustic Road from Star Lake to Boulder Junction, and on the hybrid ride along the edge of the Frank Lake Wild Area.
Not only will riders enjoy the stunning beauty of the northwoods, they will get to participate in the Plum Lake Lobster (crayfish) Boil Cajun and Swedish style the Great Plum Creek Bobber Race and the election of
the Crayfish Queen, all fun events the Lions have incorporated into the bike tour.
Registration fees for the tour are $15 for individuals and $50 for families
(up to four people) prior to the event, and $20 individual, $65 family, day of the tour.
The first 100 riders will receive a commemorative keepsake (better than
a T shirt), and all riders will be eligible for dozens of door prizes, including two sets of snowshoes donated by Chain O' Lakes Cyclery of Eagle River, a tour supporting sponsor.
After the ride there will be lots of food besides the crayfish and there will be rest stops along each tour route with water, Power Ade provided by supporting sponsor Coke, and fresh fruit.
Other supporting sponsors include BJ's Sport Shop of Minocqua, Coontail Sports of Boulder Junction, Builer's Cyclery and Fitness of Wausau and Trig's Foods of Minocqua.
Registration forms may be obtained at local businesses in Sayner by calling 715/542 3501 or by e mail at bikeguy@nnex.net.
Registrations, with checks made out to the Sayner Star Lake Lions, may be mailed to Northern Highland Bike Tour, 3126 Razorback Road, Sayner, WI 54560.
The Sayner Star Lake Lions are eager to complete the job Boulder Junction started several years ago when it completed 11 miles of trail from Boulder to the Crystal Lake campground west of Sayner.
The Lions Club, along with the Sayner Star Lake Chamber of Commerce, is raising money through events like the Northern Highland Tour to try and keep all of the bike trail cost off the local tax roll.
