    This event has been my number 1 training goal since.... the last 8 hrs of Adrenalin. Hopefully it won't be so freaking hot, and I wont suck so much a$$.

    I've been thinking about entering the 8hr solo. Anyone know if they require Solo entrants to complete their mandatory volunteer hours?

    I did the 8hr solo last time and don't know anything about volunteer hours. Actually 4 of us did 8hr solo and were not told anything about it.

    The mandatory volunteers are only required for the teams involved in the 24hr event. Those doing the 8hr are not required to have a volunteer.

    This 24 hour race in AZ which is supposed to be the course for the 24 Hour National Championships in '09:
    http://www.tucsonracing.com/PSMinf.htm

    It would be cool to see STR riders at that one next year. Categories are: solo m/f, male duo, female duo, co-ed duo, 4 person female, 4 person male.

    Start training now... :D

    Slacker! haha, Can you still sign up for your volunteer hours early? So maybe you don't get stuck with the 3-6am shift.#-o

    I am in process of putting together a 10 man team with all people I work with. Not sure if I can get the full 10 or not though, have 5 firm and lots of maybes. We will be back as Team Purple Haze. The focus will be on fun this year !! :beer:
    I think I met gene for the first time last year in the campsite next to us. I remember him saying to sign up for VQ right away because it would sell out, man was that good advice!
