at least its supposed to slow down on saturday and not supposed to rain sunday... i may be switching tires...


EDIT: upon closer inspection...its gunna be slop


The race is still a week out. Thursday or Friday we can start worrying. Right now there is probably an equal chance of 90 degrees with dry trails, and 30 degrees with snow!

Right now I'm more concerned about the bug forecast. The gnats, or whatever they are, are swarming on the Blue section and are so thick it's like riding through a hailstorm. But hey, protein!

FYI - The kids race loop is open now if you want to bring them out for a trial run before Sunday. It's located at the start/finish area of the Stampede at the Whitford lake area.

If you preregistered you will have the opportunity to pick up your packet today from 4 - 6 pm at Whitford Lake (start/finish). Don't worry if you still need to register; Race day registration starts at 8:30 am and will continue until 15 minutes before each race.

Sorry, no. With the new trail additions it was decided to bypass the Amusement Park and then hop on the new Green (backwards) and then dive into Crazy Beaver. It's a fun and fast course for sure.
