Does anyone know what the course layout will be like?

Well, I'm not really a fan of the GP style races (short loops with a moto track) ...I prefer the hare and hound format, or the long loop hare scramble formats (and I've never done an endure before, but I assume after yost I'll add that to my preferred list)...so that and the distance down to Monticello I've just never gotten out to it.

If the GP Races are closer, I do them...but I don't like to travel to far for a GP.

 

[Gravy]

So more personal preference ya?
It seems like it would be more interesting for the spectators.

 

[Cascadia]

I think it is 6 8 mile loops with track mixed in for a little bit on each lap. But don't quote me.

Entirely personal preference. I know a lot of people that really like the GP's. But its just not my favorite thing. If I had the time...I'd still race them. But I have to pick and choose my races throughout the year...so I don't race Monticello.

Monticello will be pretty much identical to Mesquite as far as format. You will start on the MX track in waves and head out onto a desert course. Overall the course is pretty fun, but it has been incredibly dusty the past few years, so moving up through the pack when you start on one the 2nd or 3rd wave can be a little bit of a challenge. This race is going to be an A$$ kicker for me since I will be running 2 days (120 miles each day) up in Idaho at the Idaho City 100 the weekend before. I won't get home until Monday night and then I have to get my bike prepped and my body recovered for leaving on Friday for Monticello.

DJ....are you going to race the grand prix in Price on the 22nd?

 

[djgardner]

Yes I will be racing Price. It's my hometown race, I can't miss that one.

Who is getting excited?

Who is getting excited?

I have to get through Idaho City before I can get excited about this one.

That is so hard to keep a secret. He is a lucky boy. I get people telling me I shouldn't give my boy a nice bike. I say it's an investment for when he is older and he and I can spend time riding while those OTHER parents spend time with their kids on visits at rehab.

Does this mean you will have a 50 for sale????

 

[jeeper]

Durn it.. My dad gets married that day. I doubt he would be happy if I skipped out for a race..
I would have loved this.

Terrible dream last night. Got to the start line and realized I forgot to get ready. Only thing I had with me was my helmet, boots, and some shorts. When I realized this the banner dropped. I proceeded to put my helmet and boots (without socks) on. By this time I was like 3 minutes back. So I took off. Passed some people but it was too little too late. On the positive side, there was no dust. Hopefully that part is true!

Ha, The first time my brother came and raced he showed up with no knee/elbow pads, no chest protector and riding shorts, finished out the race all scraped up and bruised.

 

[anderson750]

I am on my way home from Idaho City and my bike is hammered after 250 miles of some of the gnarliest mountain terrain I have ever raced. I have a lot of work to do over the net couple of days to get ready for Monticello.

 

[Gravy]

Where is everyone staying? is there camping available at the race track or do we need to get a Hotel/ Motel/ Holiday Inn

 

[Cascadia]

Taking my trailer. Got to have a place for Stone to nap and run around and so I can shower after the race.
