East Coasters to host pair of races

East Coasters Bike Shops in Blacksburg and Roanoke, Virginia, announced two races for 2007. The Dirty Dawg will kick off the season on Sunday, April 1 at Mountain Lake Resort across some of the highest trails in the East at over 4,000' of elevation. This brand new race brings back mountain bike racing to a once popular-race venue.

On the other end of the season, the 19th Annual Rowdy Dawg race will wrap up the year on October 21, 2007. It runs from the Pandapas Pond Recreation Area in the Jefferson National Forest.
