Taped, Whacked, Blown, and Ridden Fast

The trails are great! Bet you thought by the title this post was going somewhere else. As a semi-mentally developed male, I must never pass up an opportunity for sexual innuendo. Well since this is a race blog, I will maintain every effort to keep it PG-13.

With a little bit of elbow grease, the hard work has been done. Tape has been wrapped and tied up tight, the overgrowth has been thoroughly whacked, and the trail has been blown clean as a whistle. Everything is fast, grippy, and flowing well. There is a little more rain in the forecast predicted for tonight, but with the current conditions of the trails, it should really help make the tires stick like glue.

The course is available for pre-riding now. The start loop and the gravel roads towards the finish line will not be taped until Friday due to city worker traffic, but the rest of the trail is ready to go. The race will run clockwise, so if you are standing in the parking lot facing the road you just came in on, look to your right and start there on the singletrack. Feel free to enjoy the course and if there are any confusing areas that might need more markings please let me know.

And since I generally have the maturity level of a 13 year old...



We may not have Barry, but we will certainly have Danno.
