100% correct
That is why many people like me that spent years building up great XC events have said forget it...it is not worth our time to put on XC races when most people appear to want to do races in Portland on Monday at PIR
But just for you that were not around the old XC race days were really cool. You saw all of Oregon. You made a weekend out of it and you left with a smile. Of and you actually raced when it was nice, warm and dry.
Between the short track, Cycle Cross and humping owls what can we do?
RIP summer racing

the reason people show at the STXC is its proximity to people and the fact that it doesnt burn a whole day or weekend to do it. just roll out after work, race, and roll home.

i see the short track had 331 racers.
any weekend mountain bike races have that many racers?
i see the short track had 19 boys under 14!!
no weekend mountain bike race had that many under 14 boys.
maybe the guys throwing that short track stuff should move it to the weekends....
i think Oregon Mountain bike racers are screaming their support for summer mountain biking. let's move them to the weekends and get even more people there.
