This sunday.

Who all is gonna be there?

I will be the tall kid on a 7point7 with an 06 boxxer.

Going to be one helluva race.

Just rode the whole course today for the first time this year.

The uphill section is pure hell. I am seriously going to have trouble just doing the whole race without stopping, let alone trying to race the course.

Edit: Then again I was on a 7point7 with an 8in fork and I'm in terrible shape.

I think you need to bring a heavier bike, like my 42lb VPFree, just to help you on the climbs ya know:rofl:

One run on the top 10.5 miles & 4-5 on the end, DH course should do, then it's liquid carbo time :love: (they better have a brewery in town)

See how you feel after one run, I would be betting that it will be enough...

And yes, Catwalk contains most of the techy stuff, but there are a few interesting sections disperesed throughout the rest of the trail.

The DH course is actually in the middle. Might just have to session stuff. I think there is a lot of switch backs near the end.

Sessioning it is, as long as I'm riding my bike baby!

I will leave a cooler full of IPA somewhere in the bushes close by :cool:
