The weather is shaping up nicely and we will have about a 6 mile course.

I spent a lot of time on Saturday making some trail improvements and alternate lines.  A nicer GNCC if you ask me....

Can anyone give details on the kids race? Starts at 2pm and I assume a half hour race. Is it broken up with age groups or all kids considered 14 and under. Any details would be great. Thanks,

[FinchFan194]

30 for sure, possibly 45 minutes. 9-12y/o and 8 & under.

Also it is 15&under, and that is a seperate race, during the short course. The kids race is its own race. Edited September 26, 2013 by FinchFan394

We spent this morning brushing, removing logs and cutting in a bit of new trail for tomorrows event. A lot of work has been done to make the course "foul weather friendly"  with many uphills removed and the trail opened up a bit, so we are hoping the course will hold up. The weather is gonna be sloppy, but at least temperatures will be warm.  I'm thinking that if you can make it out, you'll end the day wet and muddy, but with a smile on your face. Welcome to fall! Hope to see you there.

[FinchFan194]

The course will hold up tomorrow guys, get out here and race. You better believe that ShotgunScott knows Straddleline better than anyone else and knows how to make sure you guys all have a good time.

So, how did it go? Sorry we couldn't make it but sure wanted to...pics to follow?

[360mut]

Great race!   Those guys did an awesome job with the course.  I camped and holy smokes was the rain coming down hard all night.  It was tough to sleep in the trailer it was so bad.  That being said, I was amazed at how well the course held up.  Once again great job guys, really fun course.

[FinchFan194]

I think it went well overall, only bummer was a low turnout.
