I need to e-mail the organizer guy again and get answers to these same questions. Sq-Earl also wonders if we'll have electricity so we can bring a light rather than use tons of propane.
Churn and Burn 24 - Ashford, CT
- Thread starter I Are Baboon
- Start date
Is it Friday yet??!??!?!!? 
So does anyone still have any shopping to do before the race? I need to buy food, obviously, but I also need to buy a sleeping bag and a red flashing light for the back of my bike.
I gotta get beer. And ice.
Fixed
hahaha....speaking of BEER, I wonder if there will be any Harpoon presence there. They are the main sponsor and this race is listed on the harpoon website.
I don't know about you guys, but I like beer.

I hope the event t-shirts have the Harpoon Brewery logo on them.
BBB(Big Boob Blondes) for life!

1/2 day here.
I think McGRP01 & I will be In Ashford @ 3:15 or so
Yeah, don't get there too early because registration/the course doesn't open until 2:00.
I'm aiming for a beer thirty arrival (also known as 2:00).
Any word on this????
I haven't asked. Really, they can't expect everyone to just stand around the registration booth until the entire team arrives.
I'm guessing that the course will drain well because there are lots of bridge crossings, which means streams for water to drain into. However, there are a few mud bogs so plan on getting dirty this weekend.
this is going to suck. i quit. 
F the race! Come over to my place

Hmmm - I'm thinking I should probably bring a spare set of brake pads, my avid bb7's still have their orginal pads from last spring. I'd hate to be grinding metal on metal at 3am.
Maybe you boys can scope it out and let me know if I have electric, etc. so I can pack that. Tigg - do you have my cell number?
Yep, I sure do! I've got to call Haystack Calhoun Friday night as well with a "report", so I'll give you a buzz as well.
Oh......not sure how/if you all thought about this but 4 man & a short course, unless you plan to doubles there wil be a big diffence compared to Dalton - basically break times will be about 50% shorter (than Dalton.)
Yeah, we've discussed that. We're going to start by doing single laps. Everyone will be amped up and won't want to wait around. After a couple laps each, we'll probably start pulling doubles.
Doing one lap each means a MAXIMUM of two hours rest between turns.
We're starting; 1,2,1,2,3,4,3,4....
Hey, that's a good idea. Why didn't we think of that?
But I think we should go 1,2,1,2,3,2,3,2,4,2,4,2,4
Oh, splat's #2.
I hear TreeSaw's strategy is to go 1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1...
interesting !
Hey, let me guess treesaw's
1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1
