I have to pull out of Lory for a family conflict. Just curious if anyone is familiar with the bike. I'm just coming up to speed on my mtn bike. The Lory course was perfect in my mind difficulty wise. Just wondering how this one compares.Thanks!

That's Bear Creek Lake park, correct? Those trails are great for beginners. I don't know the course, but the toughest things there are the creek crossings. You can park in Morrison and ride into the park.

This is where COMBA does "Take a Kid Mountain Biking" day.

I almost signed up last year but I think it snowed that day!

Thanks!  I think I'll try and hit them this weekend and see how they are and decide.  Sounds like it's probably a good option for me.

I am doing the "short course."  I haven't done the tri there before, but I have raced cyclocross on a portion of the bike course.  I am planning to ride my 'cross bike instead of my mountain bike, as there is very little technical riding.

Got an email yesterday from the race organizer.  They are doing a guided "pre-ride" of the bike course.  I think his email address is on the website, maybe touch base with him.

I'm not sure if that it matters to you or even if it's a rule at this race, but I believe typical XTerra rules do not allow cross bikes. Just fyi...
