Where have you been? I've been worried sick!
You'd understand if you know what I was talking about.

Talked to Sam their RD via email. He said registration should be open in about a week or so. Apparently we made a impression on him. He remembered us quit well. Now I'm not sure if that impression was good or bad though.

Looks like some changes to the event this year. Most notable. Capping it at 500. I believe called that. Oh and the price!
19th annual
Bell's Beer Copper Harbor Trails Festival
September 2, 2012
*
Labor Day Weekend
29 mile & 17 mile
Cross Country Mountain Bike*Races
The event name has changed, due to the new title sponsor of the Copper Harbor Trails Club and event - Bell's Brewery...they did not want to promote a competitors product. If you've attended the Fat Tire Festival in the past and enjoyed it, don't worry as the date (Sunday of Labor Day Weekend), afternoon start, race course and festival atmosphere will remain the same...other than the name, only the malt beverages being poured will change!
Race course inclusive of many of the new trails on the west side of US 41 (same course as 2011). The climbing will be a gut check, while the sustained descents are guaranteed to make you smile (for the most part) :)
*Mass Race Start @ 2:00pm EST
Jr. Fat Tire kids race @ 12:30pm
40 yard “Short Tire”
3 Mile & 1 Mile XC Races

Dang it- If you don't pre register, the line is REALLY short when you get there. If you do pre register, the line is usually out the darn door...
Looks like i better pre register this year if I wanna gauranteed spot in the long course.
Believe in yourself? Well sure, of course. But be aware that "believing in myself" has been the root cause of most of my injuries.

Copper registration is open! If you are planning on going I would get signed up. This is the first year they are capping it. First 500. Last year they had 425ish. The year before was around 300. I believe it will fill up with in a couple weeks. They have been getting a lot of press and the word is out.
I can't wait.
