Just a heads-up due to many inquiries we are getting. We are carefully watching the weather, rainfall amounts and forecasts to determine the potential ridability of BC on Feb 13. We are also preparing, if necessary, to move the race to a ridable venue if one is available on the 13th in the event BC is not, including the possibility of swapping dates with Johnson Branch. Appreciate your patience and understanding while we work hard at trying to bring you race #2 during all this inclement weather.

Out there.

Rideable dirt, or a will it be on pavement? Don't really see what would be rideable unless it is moved to somewhere a lot further away like Solv. or Tyler.

Thanks for the info Bobby. Some trails dry faster than others.

We will try to find ridable dirt, not pavement, in the event BC is too wet on the 13th. I assure you we are well aware of what to expect and any remedies when planning winter mbike races.

Out there.

spin class for 6 hours with an odometer to determine the winner. just throw some dirt around them and have volunteers going around hanging the tension so it's like going p and down hills.

Sorry guys, but this is absolutely and completely unacceptable!
If you don't figure something out - like right now - I'm not paying a dime for this race, just like I didn't pay for the last one. You may say , "but you didn't race the last one, you idiot...". Oh that's right, change the subject and throw some names around why don't you. Pretty clever, but you can't fool me. Oh no, I've been around too long to fall for that one. The point is...well, I've forgotten the point, but that's beside the point. Wait, what was I saying? Oh yeah, thanks for keeping us updated, and I'll try to make it where ever it ends up.

In the likely event that all trails are wet, is it possible to just move the event date instead of the trail to be ridden?

So if I cleared the expert section at Erwin, does that make me an expert now??

There is talk of pushing it back one week to the 20th if everything is wet on the 13th. That may be undoable for some but at least others may be able to make it....either way it is still better than canceling it all together.

Everyone lives and everyone dies.....and if you do both properly....you should have no regrets.
