I will keep you guys posted!

On a 26"? That's definitely not too high, IMO. But I like easy gearing on SS's

There is 1100ft of climbing in 7~ miles. The last, I'd say, 2 miles of the course is fairly flat, but there are a few hills thrown in.

Yep, I'm on a 26er. Thanks for the course info. It's definitely going to be a tough race for me, but it sounds like a blast.

I'm waiting to hear back from a friend about the race, but I'd say I'm 90% in!

What???? Only 19 Yes RSVP's, whatz up with that??? Come out of the closet, all you lurkers, we should have at least 50 signed up by now!!!

Come and join the madness.

P.S. Hope to get my stiches out tomorrow night after work and the okay to ride this weekend. Really looking forward to racing 4x. Oh, and I'm moving down to Expert Women DH 35+ (just can't keep up with the Pro Women anymore).

It's supposed to rain this weekend, and all week, so I'm assuming that turnout will be somewhat low again. Especially if it continues to be 40-60% rain on Saturday!

Hope that the stitches come out and all is well, Nancy!

I'm sure you'll mix it up nicely with the Laura's

jamesdc · 02-19-2008, 08:43 AM

I probably cant go because I have family i town this weekend, I'm still going to try though

wunderground shows rain on Saturday (in Temecula, anyway). weather.com has cloudy on Saturday and rainy on Sunday.

Go figure!

Can you say, Tacky!

reflux · 02-19-2008, 09:43 AM

I'm in! Now, can I actually ride 14 miles on my SS? That, my friends, is the question

It's not the 14 miles that is difficult... it's the race pace

Touche. I must time my yak just right to coincide with the finish line.

2wheel_lee · 02-19-2008, 10:17 AM

Since it's looking like I won't have my Black Market by this weekend, I don't know what I'm going to do. My two main choices are to assemble all my parts onto the Azonic that I'm trying to sell, or rebuild my Intense 5.5 for 4X use. Tough call. Either way, I'll use it as my excuse for Ricky or Bob winning.

HerbNrider · 02-19-2008, 03:21 PM

I'll be there, number plate# 432I. Usually post on RM but I have met a few of you STR folks. See you all there.

Good luck.

You couldn't even pass for 21! So passing for 35-44 may be a bit difficult.
