Classic Dirt Series - Gnarwhale MTB, 9AM, Saturday, June 1, 2024, Albuquerque, NM

Note: After thinking about it, I am going to blow off the "10 rider minimum to run the ride thing", but if we have less than10 riders I am going to do very little course marking and riders will need to rely on their GPS.  I think that is more reasonable. 


Course:

Gnarly trails in the far north footlills around FR 333 (the La Luz Trail Road). Trails are technical, hilly, steep, and rocky. Some of my favorites. You will probably have dismount for several sections. Not a great beginner race. One lap is about 5 miles, but takes 45-50 minutes to ride. We will have a 1 and 2 lap ride. I have spent a lot of time riding in the area and have finally gotten a decent race loop figured out that is mostly rideable. There are some really cool old mining trails in the area. See more photos below. 

Classic Dirt Series Format:
The Bosque MTB will be part of the Classic Dirt Series, which will be kind of like the NMES or the Dusty Roadrunner, just informal rides with no entry fees. Aside from that, they willl be normal cross country MTB "races", more or less on the UCI XCO model, perhaps a bit more old school. Different courses will require different levels of marking. Shorter courses will have a preride lap, and enough marking to get you around the course, if you do the prepride. Longer courses may be GPS only. Each race will be a little different. We will provide a GPS track for all races. Hopefully there will be more of these to come. 

Course marking for this specific race:
Course will be marked in a few areas where the course crosses the road. The lap is too big to conveniently mark, so you will be following a GPS track away from the road. Preride if at all possible.

GPS track here.

Prizes:
Maybe chocolate. 

Registration:
There will be no entry fee but if you would like to make a voluntary donation of something like $10 that would be appreciated. Please sign up below f you are coming.
