Iron Furnace 50/25k - Wawayanda - May 5

[MadisonDan]

Apologies, on vacation in Ireland.

Please come join us! This race should be a ton of fun!

Original thread: http://www.mtbnj.com/forum/threads/...cling-mountain-bike-events.43758/#post-769136

Course posted on FB and Strava: https://www.strava.com/activities/1503268948

The loop will not be as hard as the BearScat but will be a fun, challenging course.

Race is not USAC so no license or extra fees required.

25K Classes for Men and Women, Beginner and Sport. 50K Classes Open Men, Women and SS.

The idea is the 50K is open for racers who have experience racing longer events while the 25K option is posted as Cat 2 so racers new to longer events can try going slightly longer than a traditional XC race. We are not trying to create a ton of additional classes; Cat 2 and Beginner are only split at the 25K distance to try to expose beginner racers to longer distance racing.

If you race Cat 2 XC, try stretching your distance to 50K in Open and get some good training miles in the books!

Can someone post a garmin file for this course? Or at least describe the path from cherry ridge over to Pines? That's the only section that has me confused. Looking to ride this weekend.

I SENT YOU YESTERDAY!

How do I use a gpx file? I'm serious.

I only save files on connect to my garmin and send them to my device. Beyond that I'm useless.

Connect garmin to computer with usb cable, copy gpx file into the folder called NewFiles.

I wish I could but I have a big deck project to work on Saturday. You could just use your garmin to get to my place and come help. I'll provide free shitty beer 🙂
