Sunny days ahead!

Am I lying? Maybe? Maybe Not, so far the Hottest race was the Mudslinger, so
after decades of rain I am now the King of Sun (I am dreaming!)

In any case thanks for the outstanding support of the Test Of Endurance 50
so far. Registration is going well and will be over 100 by June 1st. This
race is your gateway to months of fitness as you grind uphill and sail up
and down the coast range in search of building and breaking down your legs
and mind as 4-8 hrs of riding are ahead of you in the next to last race in
the Rivercity Oregon XC Series. Pre-entry prices are still in effect and
here are a few of the details.

50 miles and 8200 ft of climbing for all riders except Cat 3's (1 lap
version for all Cat 3's)
Clydesdales do the 50!
SS do the 50
Junior Cat 2's do the 25
Junior Cat 1's are going 50!

2 fully supported aide stations
*Staging and finishing from the Forestry Tour area off of Tum Tum Road in
Blodgett (remodeling the school) so 2 miles up Tum Tum*

Epic trails, 12 sections per lap and so much room to pass

Aide drop at aide #2 Panama Canal at 25 miles (you can have us drop a cooler
or your special aide for you and we will bring it back at the finish after
2pm
Lap cut off at 1:30 pm at aide #2, those not there will not be allowed to
continue (thats 4 hrs for 25 miles)

Convenient place to quit if you choose (never!)

If you do not know how the team thing works, let me know

Ok I will tell you and YES you count as a Solo rider as well, the team thing
is a side competition

enter 5, top 4 to cross the line count for overall team time.

Must pre-register, no day of combining or changing
Just send in 5 waivers and the entry form with your team name

Must wear same jersey (team) or all black or white or red ect

Most of all its about having fun and pushing yourself to a new goal or
prepping for your next epic adventure.

Register soon,

Thanks
