Brews and Bar Ends

I found a team mate for the Urban Assault Ride next weekend. My BCR team mate and friend, Tyson, has agreed to join me on my first UAR event. Our team name: Brews and Bar Ends. Honors both the after ride festivities we often enjoy and the mid 90's era Onza bar ends I continue to rock on my mountain bike.

I'm not sure what to expect, so I'm mostly following Ty this time around. Hopefully we can have a good enough time and consume some fine brews afterwards!
Check back later for results. Maybe even some Twitter updates...

WINNER!

In case you don't recall.....Wiken and I had a little competition going on this year: The BCR Smackdown.

In an email from him this morning, he has conceded! I present that email for you now.

I'm not going to st cloud. We have a soccer jamberie from 10:00-12:00
on Saturday. :(
I originally thought the race was this weekend.

congratulations on winning the BCR Smackdown!

I love it. I have officially beaten my friend on the team. Who showed up to two races. DNF'd one. And will probably kick ass in CX this year....

Yes, my ego is large.

Now where's my prize?

How Much: Free!

Details:
As stated in the original email, this event is free and very loosely organized. It's important for you to know that the course is open for any riders. This will not happen on a closed course, so don't be a jerk to other riders who may be out riding. Registration will be at the black Jetta, first come first served. Timing will be by a battery operated clock and final timing will be posted at www.oncourseproductions.blogspot.com. There will be a short prologue lap.
Two race groups:
Novice - 2 laps - 9.2 miles
Advanced - 4 laps - 18.4 miles

Start times will vary slightly depending on the turnout.
Small: everyone starts at the same time.
Large: Advanced first.

Timing:
We will be using an honor based timing system. This means you race the number of laps you signed up for and record it on the the "Timing" sheet that will be displayed on the black Jetta.
Example: #001 1:20
We will pull the results together and post them on www.oncourseproductions.blogspot.com

Things to remember while you're racing:
Be courteous
Don't cut the course
Announce your passes
Be courteous

The race course will be discussed at 7:45am. We'll go over the distances, trail etiquette, and start/finish/laps.
