Well, I've been saying for the past year that I want to try racing, and I think July is the month (I'm going to get my ass kicked )
There is a Connecticut NORBA series. They have various classes. I am not sure if I should try the First Timer class, or just go for the Beginner 30-39 class (I will be 30 by the time the races are here). The First Timer race is usually 4 or 5 miles. I can ride 4 or 5 miles with little difficulty. The Beginner 30-39 class is usually 8-10 miles. Seems that for the same price, I get to ride twice the miles if I just join the beginner class. Any thoughts?
I've only really been riding hard for a year. My legs aren't anywhere near what I'd like them to be for a race. That is why I say I'm going to get my butt kicked.
Also, am I stupid for thinking I can race XC on a FS?
