Mohican State Park Race Cancelled
CANCELLED
With only two days notice, the Mohican State Park ordered OMBC to pay for their officers and a car for the event in the name of "public safety". This added fee would represent a 250% increase in park fee's. For 20 years, OMBC Series at Mohican has had a perfect record with no incidents or complaints from the public so we view this as an attempt at extortion that is unnecessary for such a small event. We feel that it would be precedent setting if enacted at all OMBC events held at Ohio State Parks.
Mohican/Malabar Bike Club has reported many new trees down today, the result of high winds that are currently at 23MPH. The most recent forecast is calling for rain beginning at midnight through noon tomorrow. Taken together, we think it makes sense to cancel. Racers who are already registered will receive a credit toward the next OMBC race to be held on May 1 at Vulture's Knob or a future event if you cannot attend on May 1.
2021 Series Awards that were planned to be presented at Mohican will be presented at Vulture's Knob. We apologize for this inconvenience.
