Just a friendly reminder that the Moonlight TT at the canal starts this Thursday. I'm bringing marshmallows and some wire coat hangers. If you want anything else you'll have to bring it yourself! Registration starts at 6:30, first rider off the line at 7:00. At $2 the entry fee is pretty high, but look at what you get for the money: -A freshly prepared and dialed course -Toasty bonfire -FREE marshmallows -Plenty of genuine bull-horn powered encouragment -lots of fun I'd say that's $2 well spent! Go here for other info. Post any questions here, or call Drew at the shop. Don't forget - the gate on the towpath gets locked at dark - DON'T PARK AT THE PUMPING STATION! I'll be parking at AJBW and riding from there, leaving the shop around 5:30 (I'm getting there a little early to gather fire wood). Feel free to join me.

Also, if anyone has any extra lights please bring them. I know there's several folks interested but they don't have a light.

Well...looks like Mother Nature isn't playing nice...again. Drew's going to check the trail tonight. If it's not race ready, we're just going to cancel the event. We're running out of darkness!!
Check back here tonight.

UPDATE: The race is on. There hasn't been much rain in the downtown area today, and tomorrow is supposed to be dry and windy. There will be two muddy spots, but 98% of the trail should be perfect.
See yall at 6:30 - don't forget to charge your light!

So we canned last night's ride to preserve the trail for tonight's race. I think the plan worked out well as it's already sunny and the wind is kicking. Should be perfect race conditions!
I know we sound like a broken drumset, but charge your light. It's happened too many times out there and you can't see your hand in front of your face when your light goes out. I'm bringing 1 extra handlebar mounted light should anyone have a malfunction.
This is gonna be a super fun "race" so if you're not there, you will regret it! $2 is a heck of a bargain for a time trial of this caliber. It will be legendary and it is good time guaranteed!
