XC#4 POSTPONED to JULY 10

With rain that had already fallen, and the forecast for thunder, lightning, and potential hail, we had no choice but to postpone the race on July 3. The safety of our members is our utmost responsibility, and our trails will thank us too

THE RACE IS NOW RESCHEDULED FOR WEDNESDAY, JULY 10.

There was a skills clinic planned for that night which will be moved to another date. Please spread the word.

Big Thanks to those that already did a LOT of work to prepare for this race — Karla Bailey, Colin Pendziwol, Simon Haslam.

Race info for JULY 10:

XC#4 is just around the corner.  This race dubbed “Ladies Choice” is brought to you by last years Elite Women’s Champion, Karla Bailey.  And no, your eyes are not deceiving you, the course does cross itself in the “Hydroline field”.  Heads up!

It’s a fun blast up Red/Conveyor/2K, then hitting up some old skool faves including Green Mile for the Elites.  The everyone heads out down Hilltop and laps through on the Blue/Yellow

Please note that Elite and Advanced do 2 laps, and Sport does 1.

We will try to get up the Lamb/MiniLamb course ASAP, but we can tell you that the Lambs will ride the FULL new TBAYTEL kids trail.  They will start backwards, go through the corner of the parking lot, and down the hill towards the river.  Mini’s will join this loop at the corner where the fire pit used to be.
