This year's edition of the Columbia River Bank Cascade Cycling Classic in Bend, Oregon, July 6-10 looks set to be one of the biggest in the race's 26 year history, according to the organisers. Most major US domestic pro men's teams are scheduled to attend and compete for the $17,000 prize list as are many major women's pro teams, who will be vying for a $7500 purse.
The Master's field has numerous former and current national champions scheduled to compete for the $5000 purse while the category 2/3 race field has already met the 100 rider limit and organizers are anticipating the other fields filling as well.
