Okay, get out your calendars so you don't miss this one!!! We had a great turnout for the last race. For those of you still on the fence, come on out and give it a try. If you're not sure about racing, come out and at least practice on Saturday!!

allison · 01-30-2008, 07:58 AM

The SRC races have been a blast the past two! Don't miss out before the series is over.

maxwell · 01-30-2008, 08:28 AM

I'm IN!!

If the Stinky is built back up by then, I'll race XC and Super D on IT this time around!

Gott'a show it some more love!!

S54MCoupe · 01-30-2008, 08:40 AM

I'm thinking about racing the Expert 19-26 XC. We'll see.

Jman · 01-30-2008, 08:41 AM

The sad thing is, Maxwell will be on a heavier bike and he's still going to pass me like I'm standing still (and be oh so nice about it too.)

queenwilhelmina · 01-30-2008, 08:46 AM

I'm going to race this time. XC Sport women. Last time I didn't get to race for various reasons, but I'm in this time!

Allison and Steph - please go easy on me!

The only reason I'm not doing Beginner is because I want to ride more than 7 miles and I don't usually get warmed up before 30+ minutes.

Steph may be focusing on DH at the upcoming race.

I'm gonna do my usual and attempt to not die while I am at race pace

davidB · 01-30-2008, 09:28 AM

I really hope the guy who took first in my class doesn't move up, I hung with him most of the race. Last race was the best I've had and I felt great even after the sprint at the end with some guy in my class who I beat by 3 sec. anyone on the fence, just come out, do beginner (or sport), and you'll be hooked.

TKCastle · 01-30-2008, 02:41 PM

How tuff is the super d course for a noob? I raced DH last race, Im hooked. Always wanted to do SD.

davidB · 01-30-2008, 02:54 PM

Super D in fontana

in all actuality, that is not typical. I hope/hear.

I'm the guy you beat by 3 sec. That was a close finish, good job. I'll see you next week.

davidB · 01-30-2008, 03:29 PM

haha awesome man

andy aka rut · 01-30-2008, 03:30 PM

The course varies every event. Last week was a huge hike-a-bike but the week before had two small climbs and a fun singletrack descent. You should give it a go, worst case scenario you finish last, but I guarantee you will still have a smile on your face!

What class did you guys race, and what was your time?

EDIT: Nevermind, found it... I think.

davidB · 01-30-2008, 03:55 PM

Awesome dude. It was my first MTB race, also.

Mudman · 01-30-2008, 05:28 PM

19-26 beginner DH for me, lets hope I dont crash! From the looks of it, I better get used to pedaling the Demo around on flat.
