    I did one race last year just to experience what it is all about. It was definitely fun and pushed me harder than when riding trail. The course is not long and not that difficult even for beginner. There are couple of long but steady climbs, a few drops and some single tracks action at both the beginning and the end. I would definitely sign up again this year!

    These events are really one of the best things to happen for mountain biking in Orange County. :clap::clap::clap: I hope I will be able to make it out to some this year.

    I heard rumors last year that they were going to offer 4X racing as well. I wonder if that's going to happen.

    I'm hoping they have a SS open class like in Fontana. What do you guys think any possibility? Fun series either way. Plus i can ride there from my house which is a big time perk!

    ^ A SS class would be fun, but all those flats make having gears fun.

    I was thinking the same. I'll do the first 1/2 of the race. I don't have enough stamina to race the second 1/2. ;)

    Yes, it does. It's the cutest thing ever! But I think your 15 year old cousin would be in the Boy's Juniors class.

    Great family event! My eight year raced last season and will be out racing this season. Looking forward to Tuesday afternoon racing around the lake. For anybody on the fence just come out early and check out the course.

    I wrote this on our whiteboard at work.

    We're down to 89 days as of now!

    My employer sponsored a few employees last year, so I'm trying to build some motivation again for this year, now that I work here.

    It's not catching on yet for everyone else, but I'm damn stoked!

    We got about 8-10 people in our office who ride, including some vets (like myself) from the good 'ol NORBA days in the early 90's...some don't know if they can race but are willing to try it out, and others are itching to get back the adrenaline without having to make a weekend out of it.

    Can't see a 4-cross happening...too much to pack into a weeknight, and the lake makes its real money off of the fishing on the weekends...otherwise, a 4-cross under the lights would be sweet.
