Course recon

Mountain bike racing is finally coming back to Colorado Springs! For three Wednesdays in June there will be some hot mtb racing in Bear Creek Park. To get all the race info, click here.

It has been over a year since I competed in a mountain bike race, and all signs are pointing to Bear Creek Park as the place I will make my return. In preparation for the recommencement of these two activities, I propose a team recon of the course, and maybe a little other single track too.

Place: Bear Creek Park Pavilions (near the soccer fields)
Day: Tuesday, June 3
Time: 6 pm
Effort: race course preride (not race day effort)
Duration: as long as it takes (or until dark)

Today, I rode some a new section of the course that I had never ridden before and it was pretty good trail. Looks like there will be limited room for passing on certain areas of the course, but you'll have to really want to pass (or have somebody let you by). It should also be cool as a spectator as you'll be able to see riders coming from a fair distance.
