I enjoy some challenges and don't mind failing a hill climb/obstacle (or creek crosssing).
But that seems a little punishing. I was watching that Charlie Boorman video of him attempting the Dakar Rally. Some of those endless sand dunes also seemed alittle punishing.

I'd come be pit crew for you. Might be entertaining, plus give me some great stories to tell.RRob wrote:Maybe one of y'all will come with me to the Timberline, WV harescramble race on June 21. I'll enter and race (and struggle for sure) but I need someone to help me load the pieces onto the truck when its over.

Re: gentle little trail ride
Oops, I got the date wrong. The Timberline race is actually Saturday, June 7th and then again on August 16th. They also have a complete schedule of about twenty other harescramble races in the same general area of WV. I've done the Timberline race 5 times on the four-wheeler but now I am "jonesing" hard to try it on the bike. It's a really good yet informal race series. No tech requirements at all. Genuine grassroots racing. All the info is here:Roadracer_Al wrote:Hmmmm. June 21. Calendar *looks* clear. :lol8:

Re: gentle little trail ride
That would be fantastic. Thanks, Ken. Lots of action to see and plenty of eye candy. Plus the Timberline races are at the ski resort so the ammenities are nice. Even free chair lift rides to the top of the mountain.DAMNKLRRider wrote:I'd come be pit crew for you. Might be entertaining, plus give me some great stories to tell.
Re: gentle little trail ride
I can do the 7th as well. Eye candy? Hmmm... I'll bring the camcorder... for recording your heroic race, of course!RRob wrote:That would be fantastic. Thanks, Ken.
