"Just rode it this afternoon:
I have not raced in the northeast but I would have to imagine that the technicality of this course is pretty average. There are some rocky sections but almost all of them have a pretty fast, reasonable line. The Cat 3's skip the only real technical part of the loop. However, having missed the sign that indicated this, I accidentally ended up doing the extra part the cats 1/2 will do. Again, the rocky sections are all pretty flat so you can enter them with a fair amount of momentum and just point the nose on your line and lean back. There is one SHORT steep part where you have to crest over some rocks (I had to ride that part a second time after looking for a good line to make it up). Hard to believe the cat2's are only doing 2 laps....and that the cat3's dont get to do that fun section
As far as the incoming rain....I am sure all of those rocky sections will get slick and the existing water crossings are going to get NASTY. There is already one that is on the verge of being questionable to get through.
Otherwise, I really like the course and it seems very fast. No sustained climbs longer than a couple minutes and lots of flowing singletrack. PERFECT for a rigid SS if you have one. Can't think of a spot where I think full squish would really help.
Anyone know how the starts work? Whole category at once? Age brackets?"
Race coverage in the North East too!?!
You guys get around..
