Going, as for being a wash out not many races could compare to yesterday's down pour in CT.

We had to start at 2 and I think that amounted to the worst weather of the day, I couldn't get all the grit out of my eyes but my glasses kept fogging up 🙁...The drive home was sunny and nice :hmmm:

Fair Hill is a "shine only" event.

Take note that it is $30 to pre-register and $40 if you wait until day-of.

 

[kush]

As of now, I'm doing it

Ellbiddy, during the day I would hear racers saying they got dirt in their eyes. I was like "huh, c'mon can't happen" lol I was blind on the first downhill. And you are right the rain seemed much worse when the Cat 2's went off. I didn't know that US Cross champ Tim Johnson was there and placed second. That race yesterday was like the whos who of MTB racing.

RC ... 🙂

A friend and I are signed up for this race. I have heard Fair Hill is a great place to ride. What are the trails like?

They are generally fast and flowy. Occasional rocks and roots to keep you honest. I would compare it to 6-Mile Run.

 

[743power]

I'll keep an eye out for them, but I swear I've never seen them :rofl:
