Race #6 – Mass Start Presented by Heartbeat Hot Sauce
Next week we are switching gears from the fast paced XC short track; our next race has everyone back in the trails racing both doubletrack and singletrack. There will be lots of opportunities for passing but always remember to give your fellow racers enough space and remember we are not the only trail users out there!
We have made a few changes to the courses from what was originally posted and we think everyone will enjoy these challenging and fun “classic XC-style” courses. So please take a look and hopefully everyone will have a chance to pre-ride them before Wednesday.
Sign-in and plate pick-up: 5:45 – 6:45pm (all racers must sign in). For everyone that has a plate you will be reusing it for this race.
First start time is 7:00pm
Must be a Blacksheep member to participate
Free for Racing Members. $10/race for General Members. Maximum of 2 races on a general membership before a full racing membership is required

LAMBS: Please take note – this course includes going down “shale hill”. If possible, please try to practice this beforehand. Some younger riders may feel more comfortable walking the top section.
As always, we will need about 6-8 volunteers to pull this race off successfully. Please email Keith at: mrkeithailey@gmail.com to let him know that you can help!
