FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Category 6 Racing Squad Announces 2006 Training Camp

Category 6 Racing Squad today announced the itinerary for its first-ever training camp. The 2006 Cat6 Training Camp will be held in Ozark, Missouri from Wednesday, March 22 through Saturday, March 25.

"The area around Ozark will provide for very nice weather and good roads to train on," stated Cat6 domestique Fil Drummond.

The weather in southwestern Missouri has been extremely pleasant so far this month, even reaching 67 degrees fahrenheit today.

Drummond, who played a key role in training camp planning, also relayed that, "We're looking to get in a lot of miles, with the possibility of finishing up the week with a training race on Saturday."

Drummond was alluding to the 3rd annual Dogwood Road Race to be held in Sparta, Missouri on Saturday, March 25. The 53 mile course includes over 2,600 feet of climbing and takes place on a clean and fast blacktop surface.

Along with Drummond, Cat6's Tuffy has already committed to the camp, while Skidsy McSkids may or may not also be in attendance.

Cat6's official Minnesota season-opening race is the Oxbow Classic in Rochester, Minnesota on Saturday, April 15.
