This should be interesting

I was hoping to get more posts up here about getting trails trimmed, filled and ready for the race. Don't worry just because I didn't blog it doesn't mean it didn't happen. We have spent a lot of man hours getting everything ready and this past weekend we marked everything out and got the tight corners all racked up nice.

This is what racers are going to see as they ride into the park only with a maze of tape going around just about every tree in the picture!!

We haven't worked out all the details yet, and actually won't until race day but here is a potential natural obstical.

There is one substantial climb on the course. It starts in the woods then opens up to a grassy top.

The dirt section was an area we wanted to get filled in is now going to make for a slightly more technical climb.



You are going to want to bring your running shoes, we will have 4 obsticals/run-ups with one being the finish for a lap preem! When on the bike the course will be a combination of really tight and technical turns in the park and FAST open horse trails. Don't worry we will pick up all the land mines but you might want to keep the pressure in the tires low as some sections are a little rough! I think this is going to be a course that you will either love or hate. If you want a sneak preview we will be riding the course this Thursday night meeting at 6:30pm. Bring your light and some warm cloths. We will ride the course for a while and then do some exploring on the other great ski trails around the lake. Directions are here or drop me an e-mail and I can help you out.
