Hey, this course is open for pre-riding:

Pre-Ride #1: August 5th & 6th (Saturday & Sunday)
Pre-Ride #2: August 19th & 20th (Saturday & Sunday)
Pre-Ride #3: August 26th & 27th (Saturday & Sunday)
Pre-Ride #4: September 9th & 10th (Saturday & Sunday)

I am going to try to hit at least two of these dates.
IAB - I'd like to join you when you go for these pre-rides.

Maybe I could drive over to your house and then we can drive together, sound doable?

They cancelled the two pre-rides in the middle and we're going to the Red Sox game Sept 9. I've put the Sept 10 pre-ride in my calendar and definitely want to hit that since it's my last chance.

I guess I can haul yo' butt. :D

Well, looks like Team H.O.H. is a man down! Trying to decide whether to do it as a 4-man, or to pick up a 5th.... Decisions.... :think:

Tigg - Can you do 5 man in this one?

I think our team is 4Man.

I'm looking forward to seeing you at the Race.

Yeah, 5 man is possible. I just assume do it as a 4, but I turned over the "captain" reigns to Goddy43 this year, so I'll let him make the final call.

Prior to September 2 $150 $300 $500 $600

Says nothing about co-ed at this race.

"Starting at 11:00am on Saturday, September 16th, teams and individual racers will begin taking laps to see how many they can do in a 24-Hour period. The event will run straight through the night ending at 11:00am on Sunday. Divisions will include: Solo, 2-Person, 4-Person and 5+ person teams. Teams may be mixed or all male/all female. Teams will be assigned camping areas within the main event area."

Or at the very least, share in our pain and misery.

I had a hard enough time with "only" four hours rest between laps. :help:
I'm down with a 4-man team, and that's most likely what we'll end up doing as it doesn't save us any $$ per person by going to a 5.

If you want a 5th, I have a cousin I could ask for you! I'm not sure how competitive you guys are though :)
Thanks Randee, I'll keep that in mind. :)

I think, if need be, we should be able to scrounge up some unsuspecting SMBA member to join us. :devil:

Looks like I just volunteered myself for the LeMans start. See you at the starting gate, Tigg. :cool:

Boy, I sure wish Titus would have let me keep that RACER X.

We're going to miss having Dalton Doug on our team this year. :( We're still going to race though and are looking to fill Doug's void. *cough cough MMCG cough cough* :D

Hopefully Doug will still be able to come to the race and laugh at us. :)


I cant race but my plan is to be there to help crew & cheer you all on!!!

I have no problem doing a 4 man, more laps per rider is always a good thing.

Another change to the 3MAAB roster:

JT has to bow out. So, I have gone to the bullpen and brought in non-monkey Keith. MMcG and Doug both rode with Keith at this past MS Bike Tour here in CT. He just needs to clear it with his wife, which shouldnt be a problem since she is more of a hardcore MTB'er than he is.

So our final roster is myself, Splat, MMcG, Keith. I'll most likely register the team tonight.

I got official confirmation from Keith that he is IN. And his wife is thinking of doing it solo. :eek:

Hey, does anyone have an extra set of lights that Keith can borrow?

Four Monkeys and a Baboon is registered!

:dancing:

Yeah, I realize it's a FOUR man race, but we are still 4MAAB dammit! :mad:

BTW, you guys each owe me another $8 because there was a $33 processing fee. :rolleyes: What is this, Ticketmaster?

You guys should each get an e-mail confirmation from active.com.

Got the confirmation - and joined the friends of harpoon thing that they provided at the bottom. :thumb:

IAB - how about I buy you a sixer of something tasty to cover the extra $8.00?? :)
