This sounds like fun- Thanks for posting.
I may just have to sign up.
 
That adds up to a pretty grueling session.
The park was nice today. Dry and leafy. Yellow / Orange / Red all in good shape.
Nice quick spin, then went next door to country club for an hour of tennis. courts
were in the same shape!

Do you know both run and ride courses? Is the ride just yellow? If you're practicing at all this week, please let me know, would love to join.

Unfortunately, I dont. I've never even been to LM before lol.
By the sound of it, the bike section does seem to be just the yellow course.
So needless to say, yes, I'm going to make every effort to get a practice session in this week. It's just a matter of finding the time after work. The weather looks ok this week, but in worst case if I can't do one day after work, I'm going to shoot for Saturday. I'll shoot you a pm, lets see if we can figure something out.
 
Hey guys- post up if you plan a pre-ride,
and I'll try to join-
During the week will be difficult,
but I could probably do Saturday.
 
I just spoke to the guys at Sacks paint. The course won't be marked until Sunday morning, but they confirmed that the ride is yellow, clockwise and the run is green, which branches off from yellow shortly after the pavilion.

Awesome!
 
roads closed, trees down, power outages all through out Mendham this evening.
break out the tele boards and ski villa walsh instead.
 
I received an email saying the race is still on... I have 15" of snow, not sure if I will even be able to get out. I can't imagine how the MCPC will let this race happen.
 
Race was postponed 🙁

Showed up at 9:30 at the park to receive the bad news. I'm SO bummed...would've been a perfect race day 😡
 
Seriously WTF. I am sure the park would not allow it plus how can you run or bike on those trails? Trees must be down on the whole thing.
 
It stinks that they couldn't get out notification early for those us of traveling a distance. Over 2 1/2 hours of driving for a bagel and sweatshirt was not on my list of things to do. Hopefully they can get a new date quickly.

Actually would have been fun. I showed up around 9:45 and wS ready for more of a fast snow hike instead of a run. Not a lot of snow there, just a few inches. riding would have been possible but there would have been some trees to lift the bike over and what not.

But, I am absolutely not surprised that the MCPC would not let us in.
