You will see regular street vehicles racing as well the premier king of speed, the Streamliner, a vehicle that holds the distinction of holding every world record for timed distances and ultimate speed. All this HPV (Human Powered Vehicle) racing nirvana is showcased by the unique and extraordinary opportunity afforded to us via the usage of a world class Indy car race track, the Portland International Raceway. This smooth surface course has two feet of elevation change on a two mile multi cornered, racing loop. Coupled with a large infield area where other racing activities are conducted, the PIR facility is more than accommodating, it's unrivaled!

HPV racing is not the entire spectacle of entertainment featured at the Human Power Challenge, in conjunction with our event, the Electrathon America folks hold an annual race that features small electric powered aerodynamic vehicles that demonstrate the skills and talents of high school and adult pioneers of alternative transportation. These vehicles are designed to optimize electric power that must capture engineering capabilities proving both endurance and speed. This event is exciting and inspirational, "at the flick of a switch."

The 6th event in the Colavita-Zipp Time Trial Series.  A straight out and back course that looks to be FAST!  Rides will head east with a possible tailwind and slight downhill.  There is a 180-degree turnaround on the road, then return is slightly uphill and into a possible headwind.  This excellent race series features start-ramps and professional timing. Recumbents are welcome and have been very competitive at these events.

Streamlined human powered vehicles will attempt to break the One-Hour World Record.  This track has been the site of numerous world records and world bests for the 1-hour, 12-hour and 24-hour distances, and the 200-meter low-atltiude records.  more info: http://www.hpv.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=174:termin-fuer-stundenrekord-versuche&catid=34:rekord-ticker&Itemid=191#englisch

An electronically timed 100-mile event, not technically a race, but a Tour.  Recumbents and streamlined human powered vehicles welcome to compete against a group of 250 to 300 upright bicyclists.  Tandems welcome.  Register on Active.com starting January 1.  Look for updates on Facebook.com under Black Bear Bicycle Tour.  New website will be going live soon blackbearbicycletour.com

Recumbents have done exceptionally well at this event in the past - winning age group categories and the event overall multiple times.  The course is one-way with a shuttle bus to return racers to the start line.  Its held in conjunction with North America's largest canoe race between the same two points.  The course has 3 big climbs about 30, 70 and 80 miles into the course, but overwise it is downhill overall and usually somewhat with a tailwind.

This is a super-fast flat course around a lake.  It was the site of last year's Recumbent Challenge contested by about 15 recumbents.  The organizers of the Colavita-Zipp series do a first-class professional job with a starting ramp, electronic timing and plenty of course marshalls.  Expect a field of about 100 plus upright racers.  The course goes clockwise around Grand Lake and passes through the town of St. Mary's along the route.

Address: LAKESHORE PARK, CORNER OF ST RT 127 AND LAKESHORE DRIVE, CELINA, OHIO
