Put this on your GPS so you don't fall into a tiger pit.

It looks like this. The loop is about 5.5 miles long. The sombrero is where all the fun police are at. We take all of this very seriously. Especially the lions & tigers.

Baaaaaadass.

Just to be all clarifying (and possibly stray into stupid-question territory, but *somebody* had to drink that growler!), if we signed up for the season pass, we do a whole lotta nuttin' to sign up for the individual races, right?

Just show up. The season pass is a different reg page but we'll roll it up on race day.

Is there a place to drop the waivers? Or should we carry them with us while we ride the course?

Just put it back in the cooler. The lions & tigers know.

I rode a few laps this evening and I'd say that this has to be the best H2H course in years. It's a true MTB course. You guys hit a home run. Nice work. Shit even Kevin would like it.

Thanks @ryderX we feel the same. Now if we can get a trail on the other side of the lake instead the road we be in for an Oscar! Though people will be wanting that road

 

[Patrick]

what tires should we use, and what air pressure?

will we be going through the pavilion?

 

[mattybfat]

@fidodie ones that don't flat, not sixmile psi and no we are not even near that side of the camp. Again don't go to main camp. First and only right turn off main entrance road. Follow all the way to upper lake till you see main lot. Start on road going up...

 

[Magic]

What time will it be open until on Saturday? Can I come by for a ride too? Do bear bells work on lions?

[mattybfat]

I Cleaned the local secret go around for those who have to do it multiple times...

 

[icolquhoun]

This is a great loop! I foresee a few bottlenecks here and there for those not used the tech o' the North

 

[SmooveP]

[Dominique]
