Stage 1 Update. Photos are posted.
Hello Killington Stage Racers & Friends.
Here is a brief update on today’s racing. Our first 5 fields that started in the AM were greeted with a sunny and comfortable start. The afternoon wave was a little less lucky with some light rain showers moving in to get everyone wet. They soon cleared for a really nice end to the racing day.
Another group getting over the bridge without incident
My worries about the single lane bridge were all for naught in the end. Good planning a great volunteer (thanks Mark!) and 3 awesome Windsor Sheriff’s Deputies made it all work without a hitch.
Ilke who took photos for the 2009 GMSR did a great job, but she was unable to make it to the KSR this year. That left me to try to be a photographer as well as the Race Director. Despite not being very experienced as a photographer the scenery made my task much easier.

Registration has now closed for 2010. Over 550 racers registered for this year's event. Registered racers will be receiving an e-mail soon with additional race details.
Volunteers are still needed to help make the event run smoothly. There are many different roles to fill. If you are interested please have a look at the volunteers page for more information.
Here is our sprint leader's jersey. The black flies chasing the racer are the state insect (well not really). Of course they cannot possibly catch the KSR sprint leader. So win this jersey and prove that you too are faster than Vermont black flies!
We designed this year's leader's jersey with the Giro in mind. It should be arriving any day from our friends at Champion System. Here is a preview:
We have added another new sponosr! Raw Revolution has signed on to sponsor this year's KSR. Check them out their products are really tasty and healthy.
We have a sponsor for the circuit race! The Mountain Times Newspaper a long time supporter of the original KSR has stepped up to support the new KSR! For those who raced the KSR in the past you will remember the spectator guide put out by Royal & Zipp at the Mountain Times. But they did more than that back in the day. They helped put the race on from road sweeping to arch building they loved the KSR and are very happy to welcome it back in 2010!
The first of our three leader's jerseys is now completed. Here is the K/QoM jersey sponsored by Long Trail Brewing:
The Killington Economic Development & Tourism Board is our title sponsor and they are very excited to be breathing new life into this great event!
We hope you will include the KSR in your early season racing plans for 2010.
