Actually up until Aug 7th, it's $30 + $5 for the one day license.CouchCanoodle said:I'm thinkin' about it. Not sure if I wanna cough up $40 though (gotta buy that damn one-day license). What class are you racing in?
Not that I remember. I grew up in Napa and worked for a summer up in that area for a vineyard. It's all soil and trees. As to whether or not it's loose or what I couldn't tell you.Aussie Bob said:I might be up to it , is their any sand at this one like Sea Otter
I'm going to do beginner 30-34. I've never ridden there and this will be the 4th race I've tried. I just hope to finish.STrackMike said:http://www.puc.edu/Pioneers/HMC/

Is the section you walked followed by an immediate uphill that is also rocky?zorg said:So I rode it Saturday morning, and the place is pretty sweet. Tons of single and double track, with some technical sections (short but steep rocky and rutty downhill, that I walked). The place does not seem very big, but it was quite fun. I also noticed the altitude (1800').
Coolest feature is that most of the trails are shaded by trees, so it does not get as warm (it was 104 outside in St Helena in the sun Saturday afternoon).
I can't remember, but I don't think it was too hard.merlin said:Is the section you walked followed by an immediate uphill that is also rocky?
Just lower the seat, slide back and pray when hitting a DH!merlin said:Is the section you walked followed by an immediate uphill that is also rocky?
.... with a good seat that is not too wide, you should not have to lower it. Anyway, who wants to stop during a race to lower the seat? IT'S A RACE!zorg said:That's the problem with a Specialized, you can't lower the seat...![]()
I will be easy to find. I just got my mtbr jersey and shorts so, I'll be wearing those and riding a blue/silver Fisher Sugar3, grey helmet.STrackMike said:http://www.puc.edu/Pioneers/HMC/
