    Really small turnout for XC. My son raced and like many finished 1st place and last! He got off to a good first lap then his front derailleur came loose and cost a bunch of time waiting for a allen wrench. Great day for a race! The night race was off the hook!

    Not sure but there were many GoPro cams out last night. It was so dark I even went down walking the course in the dark!

    I wanted to check it out so bad but I've been sick for the past 3 days. Does anybody have any photos or footage?
    It sounds like a cool event.

    would love to have raced but racing every weekend is not conducive to having good form for nationals. good idea, bad timing for me right now.

    also... the oppressive heat that we usually have that keeps us from racing in socal might make these races really popular in July and August! timing
