  • Well PAX it’s time to start thinking about the Colonial 200 relay. And, by it’s time, I mean the race is 5 months away. Early plans are already starting to take shape though. Hampton Roads will be leading the charge but invite any fellow Richmond and Charlottesville brothers to join us. We registered and paid today to secure the lowest price.
