Ok, here I am again with my thread full of questions for the next big race! Your comments and suggestions from my Sylvan Island Stampede questions thread were very helpful for my very first MTB race. I have been riding at Scott County Park a couple of times, but I am much less familiar with the trails there than Sylvan Island. With all that in mind, here are my questions regarding the Novice race that I plan to enter:

1) Will the Novice race incorporate any blue trails or will it just a route derived from the green trails?
2) Where will the race start/finish line be located?
3) Will there be an available pre-ride the Saturday before?
4) What happens if the trails are wet (given that ScoCoPa closes much more frequently than Sylvan Island)?
5) Any other notable differences from this race compared to Sylvan that I should be aware of? I assume it's more of a XC race, eh?
6) No custom t-shirt option with this one, I assume?

Thanks!
