haha no offense anyone, but i think since im young i can get in pretty good shape in that time.. maybe not enough to run 4 laps at an expert pace.. but good enough shape to place well in sport (hopefully)

I'm not at all worried about my fitness.

By then I will have done 6 XC races, 6 DH races, a 56-mile endurance event, and my first short track race.

I will have only taken one weekend off of training or racing from the end of December to the end of March (and you can bet I'll be riding, Gabes anyone?)

And my bikes always work

thats the only thing thats about about only having 1.5 months... i cant get a new bike by then... well maybe ill demo that carbon race bike if they let me =)

and i didnt mean you were worried, im just saying for a kid, 1.5 months is enough time to get in good cardio shape and pedaling, especially wiht my muscle mass memory, for those that started cycling and whatnot later, their muscle mass memory isnt as good therefore making it harder to regain their physical peak, but i think if i start riding asap i can get in good shape again

Brandon, you have to respect national competition as opposed to local competition. It's humbling, to say the least.

i know it wont be easy, but maybe if i pretend it will be, and push my self hard enough, i can podium, and if not, ill throwup and pass out trying, or die from cramps from pushing too hard
