SALIDA, COLORADO * All of us here at the Salida Pole Pedal Paddle race are sorry to report that we had to announce the cancellation of the 2012 race today. The ski course has deteriorated to the point where we cannot safely run the ski portion of the race. If you have already registered for the race, you will have a free entry into the race in 2013 and a 25% off buddy entry coupon for one of your friends. We will be back and better than ever in 2013. | |||||
