GEE Duh! I totally forgot about from the promoters
view how course marking and race set up play a role in
Sat races too...that is HUGE...you really do need most
of a day to get ready for a race.
Another reason for better turn out is bike shop
employee's that race...lots of shops are open on
Saturday, not nearly as many on Sunday, so the shop
guys can race easier on Sunday...there are a lot more
shop guys/gals racing then you'd think...plus a lot
more places in general are closed on Sunday, so they
even effects your race helpers. I can get way more
help on Sunday then Saturday

From a purely racing and promoting standpoint (no
spiritual stuff) Sundays are superior for holding
races! Here's why:
*work hard all wk and come home beat friday eve
(like most of us do)...no worries, sleep in, do an
easy ride, and pack...you'll be ready to race Sunday
morning
*when I put on my MTB race, Sat was a full day of
course marking, reminding volunteers,
pre-registration, getting organized...
These two scenarios from both perspectives make
SUnday preferable...
