Setting Up Round ValleyTRAILS ARE BUFF’NESS’NESS’NESS

– tonight will be an epicly fast & smooth. A couple of important things to mention before you check the map.

1. New parking requirement from the city of Park City, please park in the gravel lot (across from the soccer fields) You’ll see us. This is also going to be the new Start & Finish for our Round Valley races – way better, trust me.

2. White Pine Touring is our Park City venue sponsor, raffle drool is acceptable at all MidWeekMTB races (don’t be embarrassed)

3. No BBQ tonight, sorry, Mark Miller Subaru’s epic BBQ’n won’t be present. Bring you Hibachi and grill it up!

4. One of our rock’n racers, Lauren, will be selling her handmade jewelry for $5-$22. (I got a kiss for my earning purchase, thanks Lauren)

5. Trail Volunteer Day for 50pts – after lots of scheduling conflicts, we have settled on June 22 (yes the same date as the USCS (raceuscs.com/Round-Valley-XC) but it’s the only date that would work. So if you can’t make it cause your rock’n a 50miler, we’ll understand, but if you won’t be riding in the USCS you can help us buff out some Round Valley trails & earn an extra 50pts towards the MidWeekMTB series totals — we’ll provide lunch, hydration and tools.  We will also be putting on a Solitude Trail day as well, later in the season for another chance to stack on another 50pts. IF YOU ARE ATTENDING PLEASE RSVP HERE (we need a head count)

OK updated course map — Caution on the way down from Backslide/Matt’s Flat where we pass the loop’in section – it is a trail merge. We will have classes coming in while some Experts are pushing their way around for another lap. SECOND CAUTION – the finish on Fast Pitch, there are downhill sections on gravel 2bl track with 2 tight LEFT turns to the finish – don’t leave your epidermis behind.

MidWeekMTB Prodigy Well it seems that we know have a strong following of aspiring riders. From casual riders who just hopped in to poach the course’s flagging to little’ns who surrouned the finish greeting their parents with drooling smiles, be on the lookout for new up’N'comers.

Our ears picked up “GREAT COURSE!”  - exactly what we thought, happy all had fun. Even those handfuls who had technical difficulties seem to be displaying grins.

A big thank you to our sponsors who continue to offer up goods & services making our series amazing from start 2 finish. A special thanks to Mrs. Draper Rodeo Queen & Katie with the 4H club for the “biking w/ horses” introduction/etiquette address.

PUBLIC TRAILS - as a reminder, we are granted the privilege to use these public trails, if you come across the public (non-racers) on course, show some respect to your fellow O2 breather. We understand that competitive drive, use a brake lever & your agile ability to mindfully pass with an “excuse me, thank you” gesture. We do the best that we can to alert the public of our events & we are on publicly funded trails, so by no means will there be a 100% guarantee that only racers will be on course. If you like our races as much as we do, help us continue to ride this amazing MNT range by sacrificing a few pedal strokes in the name of common courtesy.

Race #2 Results

Next race this Tuesday, May 21 at Round Valley. New parking requirement will be in the new gravel lot ACROSS from the paved parking (where the High School Races were starting from).
