Registration is open at 8:30 till Noon. BBQ wraps up when they run out of food usually around 1:30 or so.
We'll have raffle tickets on hand to enter to win a Fox Fork of your choice, among a whole bunch of other swag...
Think of it this way, MTB in the AM, BBQ in the PM, then head home and watch the Pats. Perfect day I say...
