Snotcycle

OK DC area mountain bikers, Plum Grove Cyclery is putting on an early season race. Same place as the Leesburg Bakers Dozen. Roughly 8-30 miles depending on class Here's a bit from the bikereg page:

"Come on out to Leesburg, VA for the first annual SNOTCYCLE Mountain Bike Race on January 31. This is a "weather be damned" rain, sleet, the nastier the better, race.

We will be using the same championchip style timing as the Bakers Dozen, having a little schwag, and a good old fashioned "Fear this", "Piss on Ford, Chevy, and Chrysler", Screw the economy, rebel yell hella good time.

I dont want to hear any of the following crap:

* My drivetrain will get damaged
* My spandex will get dirty
* I will slip in the mud
* My toes will get cold
* The bourbon in my water bottle tastes funny with cow crap in it"

Kleen and I had been talking about going to on a Tom McEwan paddling trip for the last two years and we decided to pull the trigger last night. I had mentioned to Tom that we were thinking about it last month and when I talked with him the other day he said we had signed us up and was expecting us. So - flight booked for Jan31 thru Feb7 and Kathleen gets to try out some warm water paddling south of the boarder... I will call you for the next night ride - laters...ewb; ▶ Reply to This

The BD is April 18, registration isn't open but should be soon; There limiting to 400 racers so I'm going to sign up early, I recommend it. Early sign up will probably save you some $$ too. Now I just have to get back into shape....; ▶ Reply to This

The bike boxes I have are as follows
48"L x 15"W x 30"H - this is the bigger one, weighs about 30lbs
and the other is
11" X 30" X 45.5" and about 15lbs...

Let me know which works better for you and you can borrow either...; ▶ Reply to This
