The first night of the series was a lot fun last night. I pre-rode the course last night but did not do the race (nursing a bad hamstring injury); but it's a great course and the Warriors single track is one of the best short/steep sections in O.C.

Great fun afterwards also with food, beer, blazing fire pit, music and raffles; and of course lots of friendly bikers.

I'll be riding the next in two weeks on the 30th. Hope to see lots of SocalTrailRiders.org riders in attendance that night.

Help out to make this a successful series and sign up early at www.warriorssociety.org

Roll Call:

Who's planning to be there on the 30th?

[ocrider]

Ya it was awsome. I placed 2nd in the 18 and under catgory. The food was great and we couldnt have asked for a more perfect night. I wish i could make it on the 30th but ill be there for the 3rd one.

Looks like a fun race. Im thinking about doing the next one at the end of the month. Quick question is the race short enough so that you dont need lights?

[ocrider]

You don;t lights. It starts at 6 30 and the longest it will take you is an hour. It took me about 40 minutes and the best times were a little over 25 minutes.
