I was just out at EI helping set up I think we will be fine for Sunday rain came in and out pretty darn fast. The trail was pretty darn dry when I was hiking on it.
We have a big ass tent to keep everyone in the shade by the parking lot and the new start finish is awesome. People we be amazed by what a great job was done on cuting the weeds down... Thanks Matt!!!!!

I felt great on my Sunday and Tuesday rides, but I felt like something at the bottom of a toilet bowl on Thursday....hopefully I get the legs back for the race. If not, I'll just plow everybody who isn't wearing a Smitty jersey  See everybody tomorrow for mass pain and even more fun!!

thanks Retro.......with all this rain all my miles have been on the road, hope I remember how to ride on dirt  Those road miles will come in handy come the OMBC race @ EF. Word has it that more than a few Cat 3 Roadies will be racing in the Sport 40 Something class aboard their big wheel rigs. At least one of them will be wearing a Saturn kit. Better start working on your sprints and intervals Mr. Cat Claw. The EF race is going to be fast and Furious! Retro

0% chance of rain, high 70's at start time, and humidity falling throughout the morning.....so who here sold their soul? Matt?

Heck..thay should just ride their road rigs alltogether, there's enough road in that particular race....lol BUT....that's another thread altogether. The R.F.T.G race has a great new little bit of devilry that will be a surprise to everyone. A new HILL for your climbing pleasure has been added by course-master Matt. He calls it (very appropriately) COFFIN NAIL HILL. If one is already feeling wrecked by the rest of the course, it will be the final nail in ones coffin.  I rode it this eve and it's a test of man and machine. Ouchie
