Matthiessen Mountain Madness - 17 Oct

[Rage]

The folks at Illinois Valley Cycling Association is hosting the 2010 Illinois MTB State XC Championship this Sunday at Matthiessen State Park. There will also be a DH race on Saturday 16 Oct. Check out their website here. We had a great time at their first race last fall, who's in for this year?

Give a holla!

I'm going and may actually sign up for a race... maybe. But, I am going. How's that for confidence?!

[AG]

I'm in.

whos racing what clas? i am 95% in for the trip but non decided on what class to race. i am thinking that for the $25 it would be best to hit the sport group and get in a 15 mile ride and not worry so much about competing? if the right people are there to chase, it may make my decision a little different....

i want to be able to pre-register, so quick replies are appreciated.

Yep I'm in sport, 15miles...

See Ya, Andy

I'm going

I plan on doing the novice unless they cut out all the cool stuff then I'll step up to sport. I know that doesn't help you out at all.

AG, I looked at the map yesterday and you don't get to go down the big hill or around the water's edge if you do novice. Two laps for Novice, 3 for sport (which includes the additional section and hill). I am undecided on which race I plan to do. Haven't been pushing myself lately.

i am decided and am going to do the sport class. not going with the intent of actually being competetive, just for a challenge to finish on the lead lap and not in dead last. more for fun and to get out and explare more sweet singletrack...

[AG]

I'll have Ella with me. Not sure how long I want to be out there. I think it will be a game time decision for me.
