How am I supposed to do this, and still get breakfast? ;)

Glad to hear some things are getting started on the old golf course.

Looks like you're getting it. This will be the Muddy Short Track if we keep this warm spell up.

Little bump for you, 1 week to go!

Looking at the 10 day forecast, it looks like it is going to be a cold one. High temps in the low 20's. At least we can be certain the course won't be muddy...

p.s: Did you get a Tom's sponsorship?

Thanks to yesterdays rain the course conditions should be spectacular. It was very rough out there last week, but it should be good now and I will be out breaking in the course as we get new snow.

This should be a fast paced and fun event with prizes for the winners and some swag for the riders.

Spectators bring your cowbell!!!

ITS ON!!

Just got back from riding the course. Conditions should be near perfect by the weekend. Normally the sled hill wouldn't be in play due to ice, but because of yesterdays rain I think we can add it in (just need to contact the city to make sure it is O.K.). Either way, the course is plenty tough and it will be a good test for all skill levels.

"Plenty tough"?

50 feet of vertical gain!

Are you trying to talk people into racing, or out of it?

Will standard tires (at low pressure?) be sufficient to race, or would studs be recommended?
