Lets not take this rain for an omen for the 2012 race year. We have had a fantastic 2010-2011 in terms of race weather.

Wow, narrowly escaping disaster, MTBNJ pulls off another fantastic race. Late in the afternoon on Friday the Governor ordered all of the State Parks closed by 6pm, this means that MTBNJ couldn’t hold their race in Allamuchy. In blazing effort they rerouted the entire race on Boy Scouts of America property, and managed to keep the course around 7 miles. With the exception of one awful climb, the course was fantastic!

This event was coupled with Cranks Around the Campfire event, which proved to be a fantastic time yet again. Camping was great, riding was great, and the people were great. I can’t wait to do this awesome weekend again next year, but hopefully without the worst hurricane to ever hit the northeast looming. Even with the impending doom the event was a great success.

This looks pretty fearsome

The 2011 Hilltop Grasshopper kids race went off for it’s 2nd annual running smashingly. The morning weather looked a little dreary but come race time it was a spectacular day. All the kids were out having a great time on their bikes!

Excellent race by Maddawg and Darkhorse yet again! I’ll update this soon, real job keeping me very busy. Pictures are currently uploading at 9pm on race day, hopefully they are done by midnight. But here is the link to the pictures. Please note that during lap 1 I had some location and technical problems and I missed some riders, during lap 2 I had some serious hardware issues which caused me to miss another batch of riders. Hopefully I got at least one good shot of each rider, but I fear there are riders I missed, my apologies if I did.

Backwards! I haven’t seen the course run backwards since that one race I spectated on a fluke in the 90′s. Awesome day out there for sure. Great job by Marty’s.
