I have to agree. That was the most technical course we have seen yet. It was
AWESOME!!!! Please keep the great course design up. That whole "step-up"
section was a great touch and the trees were uber-tight.

Great course!!!!

First I have to state up front "I volunteer at the short track races". I
help with registration/finish area set-up and the kiddie races. I guess my
view might be not totally neutral but...

I think the "COURSE MASTER" John Dorfer and his crew or "master sickos" are
building very challenging courses for all levels of riders at the short
track series. One would not expect some epic technical climb on a short
track course, but some space to pass and also some technical aspects to make
it a mountain bike rather than a road road course. Each week has been good,
with last night being the best with regard to tight technical stuff. My big
singlespeed gear was a suffer-fest and I thank you guys. These courses are
doing a wonderful job of allowing riders to learn and or hone technical
riding skills. Keep up the great work. Don't make it easy. Thanks to
people teaching beginner clinics. Giving your time to others is wonderful.
