WEEKLY PACE RACE CANCELLED

(4-8-2025)

The weekly pace race scheduled for Tuesday, April 8th, 2025 @ 6:00 PM has unfortunately been cancelled due to to a major traffic accident on Main Hill Road with people injured. The road is closed by the police at both ends; over by the airport going Eastbound and the bottom of the Hill by the State Route # 502 and State Route # 4 junction headed Westbound.

Sorry for the last minute late decision but the traffic going out of town on the truck route and going on the long route on State Route # 4 past Bandelier is a absolute disaster due to the Laboratory employees getting out of work.

Why don't we plan on doing the same course next Tuesday, April 15th, 2025 @ 6:00 PM

I apologize for any inconvenience that is caused by this situation.

If you have any question regarding this situation feel free to contact me by calling or texting: 505-709-0423.
