June 9 2010
RAAM 2010 has started!
   

The women and 60+ men started yesterday Tuesday, June 8th. The men solo race started an noon EDT today, June 9th. We expect the first riders in Oxford sometime after midnight, Wednesday,June 16 and the last to pass through Blanchester the morning of Saturday, June 19.

You can keep up with the race by visiting our website www.ohioraam.org. You can see
the rolling Twitter posts with chatter from race crews, media crews and just fans along the route. See posts of text, photos and videos as they happen. You can see who has arrived and forecasts of who is expected next.

As the racers approach Ohio, the staff at Oxford and Blanchester will begin to post and you will see arrivals, weather conditions and other news tidbits. We think this will give you insight into the race that you have never had before.

We will also collect the video reports from the media crews as well as fans. You will find them under the [Photos, Videos and News] tab at the top right of the home page.

Best of all, drop by during the race and become involved yourself. Veteran time staff will be able to fill you in on what has happened, is happening and about to happen. Be careful. RAAM watching can be addictive.

Thanks to all who have volunteered and covered both Oxford and Blanchester time stations around the clock. RAAM happens because of you.
