Lets just suppose that i wanted to do the little trip with y'all. I don’t know how these things work. Are you actually competing in these events or are you just going to watch? Is there any way i could actually compete or is it just for elite level bikers?

Oh, I'm actually competing brotha!!! It will be a blast! My buddy lives over in France and has talked to the race organizer who knows we are coming to the Transvesubienne race. There will be roughly 8 of us in that race. As for the Willingen bike marathon (80 miles), there are only 3-4 of us doing that. Anyone can race in these as long as they have a note from their doctor and some sort of sport license (even a bowling license will work - though I use my NORBA one.)


The bike festival in Willingen is supposed to de "Da Bomb". You can test ride crazy freeride and DH bikes on the ski resort DH runs and there is even a big test track set up DS like.
