The Inukshuk benefits us financially, and it will look awfully good to the city and the golf course management if the event is a success, so come out and race, or watch, or help out, or all three.  And do a snow dance.

Despite course conditions that were probably as bad as they could be without canceling the race (okay, there could have been freezing rain), the race went off quite well.  I think almost 70 racers, and all but one or two seemed to realize that the proper response to the conditions was to soldier on and appreciate being outside creating stories to tell your grandkids. ("Why, when I was a kid, we would push our bikes through knee-deep slush, uphill, both ways.  For fun!")  Thanks to Eric and all the race volunteers for putting on a well-run event, and for the golf course for hosting and giving us a warm place to watch with a beer from.  See you next year!

I was right there with you Jon... until you said, "for fun." That was not fun.


Hopefully, there will be fun for the fatties on the local trails this week. Dare to dream.

thanks to everyone who came out! Yes, the conditions made for not enough actual bike riding. Things were going well earlier in the week until the warm-up. Between the soft snow, and the weird snow depths you get in the open, rolling hills, it really messed up the surface that had been very ridable.


The good news is the land managers are very positive about the event. I have several meetings this week to debrief and set some plans for next year. I'm hoping to see if we can develop the infrastructure for some more snow bike opportunities on the GC (not just a one day event), and adding more grooming capabilities.

Just wondering if anyone else is putting on the heated shorts and heading out for the Fat Bike Criterium?

Only zero at the gun....but the wind chills a bit nippy at -20 to -30 

My brother and I are going out. We're Batman and Superman. Found some great onesie adult pajamas on clearance at Target! Oh yeah!

race results?

did we get free passes to rays?

The fat bike crit on the Square was not scored, so there are no results for that.


I gave out a bunch of Ray's passes at registration. Ray's brought us so many that I was giving out handfuls as we were closing up. And I still have about 20 or so. I can't make the February CORP meeting, but I'll try to find a way to get them to the meeting so people can take advantage of them.
