Calling all you 24 Hr racers,

Please visit http://www.ridesb.com/24hourschamberlin_2.htm to get the low down on this really cool 2nd year 24 Hour race in the Santa Ynez Valley. The date is October 28-29, 2006.

Ask anybody who has ever done one of my events and they'll tell ya that there a blast! The 24 Hours of Chamberlin Ranch II is sure to pick up where last years left off and be a lot of fun. Everyone gets a shirt and swag bag. We'll be showing movies all night around a big bon-fire too!

The entry form is at http://www.ridesb.com/24hourschamberlin_2.htm and is printable from there. There will be hot showers and a BBQ pit going for the duration.

Enjoy the ride,

Mike Hecker - Owner
SG Productions

Where are the showers? I might be able to help. It's too much for me to ride though .

 

[hecktone]

Well, Patrick the venue is about a 2 miles from the bottom of the DH course towards US 101 ... we will build the showers from scratch.

We will need your help for sure.

damnit, i wanna roll up there, but it outta my price range, especially since i dont have a team, (almost all my frinds ride DH)

 

[PatBranch]

Find some others and take the train up.

 

[bjanga]

[Shyrmp]

speaking of 24 hrs.. I just signed up to join a team for the 24 hrs at Iddywild on the 16th. I'm so dead.

[PatBranch]

If I help, can I ride the Dh course?

 

[mastercycleman]

anyone have a team I can join, I have another friend, but thats it, anyone need another guy or two, im pretty fast, and a good climber.

 

[d_c]

myself and my friend are signed up for the 2 man team,

cant wait!

 

[PatBranch]

hahaha

Sounds like an adventure and 10 halves.

 

[Gambo]

Im going Solo!

 

[mastercycleman]

sh!t, i wanna go, my friend and i could do a two man team, but i need lights, what would you get, hey bjanga, wanna go hard core cross country style with me???

 

[bjanga]

dude, I would, but I need lights and that puts it over the top for $$$

maybe next year

 

[m-dub]

I rode it last year and it truly felt like a grassroots race, the way they should be. Every one was super cool. I was up 36hours stright. Sucked at the time but was ready to do it again after some sleep. I would be back to defend our title ( we won the corperate team) but have a baby due that day So maybe I can do the drive, ride at o-late-thirty and be back before the wife and kid-o wake. Or not If you havent done one its a good time for all. Thanks Mike for puttin them on.

 

[hecktone]

dude, I would, but I need lights and that puts it over the top for $$$

maybe next year

NiteRider will have some loaner lights on hand ...

[hecktone]

[mastercycleman]

[mastercycleman]

and youll have to wear your full face.

 

[hecktone]

ah ... loaner means borrow, not buy ...

mh

 

[Zutroy]

Anyone know how many feet of climbing there is a lap?

 

[m-dub]

If its the same course as last year, its got some climbing. your either up or down not alot of flat but not bad either.A really good mix. The climbing is rewarded with decents The single speeders owned it last year. Almost all single track and the daytime views are epic. Then again that was last years course.

 

[m-dub]

Thanks M-Dub! Dude your beby is DUE that day. Oh, you should stay home for sure ... good luck and thanks for the kind words.

Ya # 2 on the way. Pretty stoked. Im still trying to get a (maybe two)Poke -Town-crew, teams (corperate) together. Even though Im not going to be able to ride, oh ya my wife is going to miss it, she was our 3am hero last year and our Doctor, all which were on the same team. If the baby comes early the Doc is in

 

[PatBranch]

I'll do a lap on my bullit.

 

[mastercycleman]

are you just going to ride your bike there?:biggrin:

 

[PatBranch]

Probably not, I wouldn't want to wear out my tires on a road before a race that I have a huge chance of winning

 

[PatBranch]

ah ... loaner means borrow, not buy ...

mh

So..., we can borrow a light for the race? How much do the lights weigh? I wouldn't want it to prevent me from hucking every single bump on the course.

Is the course like the XC course from the last race? Or does it go somewhere else?

Yah, if they said they will have loaner lights. Either way your going to go. Do you do any insane curb hucks?

 

[PatBranch]

I do the sickest curb hucks. Too bad there are no curbs at firestone...

 

[mastercycleman]

can you clear the whole curb?:biggrin:

 

[PatBranch]

Sometimes, if I get lucky, I can. It's pretty hard. Those things are big.

 

[mastercycleman]

I broke my frame doing this huge curb huck, as well as blowing out my shocks.

 

[PatBranch]

What frame?

 

[mastercycleman]

DHR, too bad so sad.

 

[hecktone]

I've set up a limited number with NiteRider.

mh

 

[mastercycleman]

how many?

i want to go, but dont have lights,do you have to ask for them in advance, or can you just ask for them there?

 

[Gambo]

Mike when we going to ride the course???

 

[Gambo]

We will be working on the trails on sat. morning at 7:30am with a ride of the course to follow..
