After
talking to one of our racers, I am revising our 10 rider minimum
policy. In the future, starting with 7/25, we will not have a minimum of
riders to proceed with a race, but if we get less than 6 riders we will
do the race a little less formally, mark the course minimally, and not
charge entry fees. If you want to bring a donation of like $10
for my internet time, that would be cool. We will still do a group
preride. If we get 6 riders or more I will mark out the course and run it like a
normal little race, and the entry fee will be $25 U23 $15 U19 $5. This way I do not end up spending an hour setting
up a course for 3 riders, and riders can plan ahead on coming out
knowing that the race will not get canceled due to low rider turnout. I
think this is a better system. We used to do something like this for
the Tuesday MTB races, but I had kind of forgotten about it.

Summer Dates: 06/13/26 NM Old Fashioned MTB Series - Juan Tomas XC 1 Results Online Resistration List of riders Signed up 06/28/26 NM Old Fashioned MTB Series - Juan Tomas XC 2 CANCELED 07/05/26 NM Old Fashioned MTB Series - Juan Tomas XC 3 CANCELED 07/18/26 NM Old Fashioned MTB Series - Juan Tomas XC 4 Results 7/25/26 - Gutierrez XC Hillier and a little more technical than Juan Tomas. I have tried to make a loop that lets us use some of the really cool intermadiate trails in the area while avoiding some of the more extreme trails. The only way could figure to do this was to use two loops. Riders will probably do 3x big (east) loops and 3x small (west loops). These are some of my favorite trails in the east mountians. This video (not me) shows some of the trails. Park at the main Gutierrez lot, off South 14. Probable Course. Course will be intermediate friendly, but not easily doable on a CX/gravel bike. Entry fee $25, U23 $15 U19 $5. Potluck picnic after see details below. 7/26/26 NM Old Fashioned MTB Series - East Mtns High School Short Track (tentative) very tentative course Online Resistration for Sat XC and Sun STXC List of riders Signed up 08/9/26 Decided not to do this date as there is a MTB race in Chama, NM 08/16/26 NM Old Fashioned MTB Series - Juan Tomas XC 4 Start at 9:30AM. Parking will be at the first Juan Tomas lot. Entry fee $25, U23 $15 U19 $5. Probable Course. Course will be intermediate friendly, with one kind of steep downhill and a rock garden at the top of the climb. You could get around the course on a gravel bike, maybe running a couple of sections, but a MTB would definitely be better. Course will be different from previous ones but using similar trails. We will have a ~15mi and a ~20mi group. Please sign up online, preferably by 11pm 8/14, so we will know how many riders to expect. Potluck picnic after see details below.
