2011 Ronde van Waller

austincadence:

March 22nd, 2011. Read back and you’ll find Austin.Cadence talking about our Race Series. About how we wanted to bring back the love affair with racing while doing away with the “Who’s sponsoring it?” or the “What can I win?”. We love the glory that comes with winning. Standing at the top of the podium knowing you were the best man that day.

Fastforward to June 11th, 2011. This date will mark the first race of the Austin.Cadence Race Series. Remember, no points, no prizes, no GC, just glory. Come to Republic Park @ 5pm with your steed and your best pair of legs. No $$$ required.

The Ronde van Waller is modeled after such Euro-Pro races as the Ronde van Vlaanderen and Paris Roubaix. Tough terrain, harsh conditions, and narrow roads will force a selection amongst the men that show up this day. Understand….this race will push you in ways others simply cannot. Calling this a race of attrition would be an understatement.

REMEMBER: Pain is Temporary…Glory is Forever.

“It’s not about giving up on public schools but it is about acknowledging that right now, when you step back, [only] 8 percent of low-income kids can expect to get a bachelor degree by the time they’re 24….[and] when you have a system that produces 8 percent of the low-income kids getting out of college by the time they’re 24, something is wrong.” — Educational consultant Andrew Rotherham.
