larlev Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 No kidding. 35-49. Jeez, I'm damn sure my 49 yo self is zero chance of beating my 35yo self Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RidingAgain Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Seriously thinking about it. Haven't done any kind of racing in 20+ years, but an individual time trial on single track should be fun. Maybe even get my wife to enter. How many 50+male and female riders out there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeez, I'm damn sure my 49 yo self is zero chance of beating my 35yo selfIf you only want to race to win some money, you might be right. However, I think it’s really more about pushing yourself to see what you can do. It’s 3 laps cumulative time so I’m not sure my 35 yo self would be patient enough to pace properly and not blow up on lap 3.I think it’s going to be a wild time riding some fun trail and you get to see some really fast riders.

Jeez, I'm damn sure my 49 yo self is zero chance of beating my 35yo self I’d love to be able to further split the ages up, but financially and logistically, not possible this time around. Plus I am 48 now and regularity school the 30 somethings and certainly am faster now than I’ve even been in almost 30 years of riding and racing. Age is but a number. A 48 year old currently has the KOM on the new peddler loop and easily won the 5 lap KOM challenge last year. But as has been mentioned, race and have fun i just upped the ante to add cash payout bonuses for age group/category for fastest single laps. if it sells out, a top step podium of any category would earn $150 plus if they also have the fastest single lap probably another 20-25. Heck of a lot more than you can earn at a TMBRA race 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to say it but I'm in the 50+ category. I probably have no business racing but it's so close to home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lachrimae Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Bump and a question... Will the various feature bypasses be taped off for the Cat2/Cat1 time trials? I am hoping so, but if not I suppose I should start practicing my cheater lines... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyBadger Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 They will be taped off for everyone. There may be one or two bypasses open for the Junior race, but they will be closed for the adults. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yosmithy Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 So who all is signed up to race this event? Sounds like they're getting some more cash added to the pot. From FB: t just got real! TOYOTA of Cedar Park threw their hat in the ring as a sponsor. We will be splitting up a 500$ cash purse between six overall categories for men and women for fastest SINGLE lap time on the day. That’s an $83 cash payout for making one of your laps a complete do or die and be fastest in your cat and taking potential top step winnings in each overall category to damn near $200. You can be a first time racer in cat-3 division and win $183 in cash. BUT WAIT THERE IS MORE! Toyota will have a trio of absolutely bad-ass vehicles on display. Thank you Cash White with Toyota of Cedar Park for your generous sponsorship. If you are buying a Toyota soon, buy it from the guy that supports MTB racing and trails! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRider3141 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Question, Where will the Start/ Stop be? I heard under Parmer but then I heard it was moved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to be next to Lake Creek Park, 3300 Brushy Creek Road. We have some of the Pavillions rented out there and there is ample parking + toilets, so It's going to be a better location for everyone. I'll be building a temporary start/finish line on Friday Edited June 11, 2019 by HoneyBadger 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was planning to bring the whole family out for the festivities and am wanting to set up a base camp. Thanks for the hard work and dedication to making this event happen!
