The Tour of the Red River Gorge launched a new website: www.tour-rrg.com today in order to support it's expanding presence in the regions cycling and racing communities. "Last year we had some confusion between the racing community and the touring community with our one website" said Cliff Cantrel, organizer of both events. "With the growth we've seen in both segments and the incredible expansion of the junior events we thought it made sense to add a new website to support the racing side and make both website more targeted to their audiences."
Both websites are supported on the BikeClicks.com platform. "BikeClicks.com provided us with the web infrastructure last season and we're excited to expand with them this year too" continued Cantell. "They not only provide our websites but they provide the racing community a network where they can communicate through forums, upload photos and more".
"We're excited to increase our committement to the Red River Gorge this season" said Steven Webster, co-founder of BikeClicks.com. "Shair and Cliff have a growing event and a lot of the local cyclists want to see that even grow and get even bigger and we're happy to help in some small way".
