The guys at Clemson have posted their annual spring race date. Saturday March 16th.

Date no longer falls on the same weekend at the BMCC Super D in N. Wilkesboro. Thanks CFR guys!

Lame. Bummed its the same weekend. Personally, I have a race in Florida that weekend and hated I was missing the Super D, now bummed more that I will miss the Clemson Freeride as well.

 

[Jeremy R]

That is just gonna hurt attendance for both. As few races as we have around here, it be nice not to have two on the same day. Oh well, I wanted to do both. I guess I will do the BMCC Super D as they have had their dates up now for a long time.

 

[Jay13]

Same weekend as Santos Fat Tire Festival too...

 

[FCLinder]

I know it sucks to ask this, but if any of the Clemson guys read this forum. Can you change the date? Maybe the 16th? I this will help attendence at both races and that is what we need for the South East.

You'd prob be better suited to post the question on the FB event page.

Thanks for support Jeremy!

Yeah I was planning to do the Clemson race this year too...

Wait...are you saying Ridemonkey isn't cool enough for college riders?

 

[DaveBethea]

Let's hope we can push this race back a weekend.....Would like to make it!!

 

[dirtyjungle]

I do not understand why they would pick the same weekend? The few races the Carolina's have we should keep them from being on the weekends

 

[mlin32]

I mentioned it on the FB page. If I had to choose between the two events I'd go for the NC state Super D, partly because I'll be in Asheville by then.

I have to say the same for 2 reason the super D was posted and plan way before and I really want to support Guard and his events. But still would love to be able to do Clemson also

 

[waterdogs]

If someone does decide to consider to change the date, here's the regional schedule:

http://gojammedia.com/?page_id=272

 

[waterdogs]

This might be an unpopular statement and yes, I agree with the philosophy of BMCC being scheduled first, but the biggest thing is a 50 min drive (CFR) compared to a 2.5 hour drive (BMCC). Not to mention I'll prob stay overnight in Wilkesboro. Considering that and $$$$, I'll prob go to Clemson.

I want to go to both too.

 

[motobutane]

The next weekend is the start of Clemson's spring break and probably why pushing it back a week will not work for them.

 

[waterdogs]

UPDATE: Richard just said the date has been changed, Saturday March 16th.

I spoke too soon. Spring break race it is

 

[FCLinder]

Smart move guys!! Thanks for listening to the riders. That goes a long way in my book!

Cecil

 

[Guard]

A big thanks to the guys for moving the date!!!

 

[803Beastmode]

This event is only a couple of hours down the road for me. I will be attending this event, anyone else from the West Columbia/Lexington, SC area going?

 

[NCBMXPRO]

I know a couple guys in Columbia that might want to head down.

 

[DaveBethea]

I guess I'll bring this thread back to life since the race is next weekend. Just get rid of all that cold weather and it will be all good!

 

[waterdogs]

Its warming up Dave. Yesterday was pretty damn cold, today was awesome and it's supposed to be up in the 60s this weekend.... hopefully that continues for another 7 days.

Sweet just getting over the sickness/cold for the third time this year. Looking to turn it around next weekend with good health and some fun riding. Cory and I are going to ride FATS Sunday after the Clemson race if anyone is interested on joining in for some fun riding.

 

[waterdogs]

We are gonna ride Sunday too, just not sure where just yet.

 

[MTB_Rob_NC]

We are gonna ride Sunday too, just not sure where just yet.

If you want a long XC ride around a different lake you would be passing by Lake Norman State Park on your way back to the Upstate. It has 30+ miles of trail

 

[NCBMXPRO]

Where can I find the Clemson race schedule. Times etc.....

 

[waterdogs]

I pulled this info from the FB event page: http://www.vitalmtb.com/community/gojammedia,19973/blog/02/08/2013/entry/435

 

[NCBMXPRO]

Great to see this race and club still going strong. If you had told me when we started the club that a DH race in Clemson SC would get that many racers even after 8 years I would have thought you were just as drunk as I was.
