Spring Thaw

Well folk, the weather forecast says Partly Cloud with sun breaks Saturday. Highs in the low 60s to lower 70s.

The climb is not yet powdery from a heatwave, which means it is smooth and extremely fast. (Except the top 1 1/2 mile, which is too steep fo be fast.)

We've had crews out the last two weekend working out the corners and preparing for the onslaught. It's in pretty darn good shape right now. Dry enough to not be wet/muddy, but moist enough to not be loose.

Can you climb? You're going to need to this year in the XC. I hear Decker and Tree Farm are coming down again this year.

Also, DH'ers would be wise to register tonight (Friday) or line up as soon as registration opens in the morning up at Four Corners because we may be close to our max of 200.

See you all in the morning!
