HUGE thanks to Redtrail Racing and all the sponsors for putting this event on yesterday.  I had a blast out there last night.  Any chance of putting on more than one of these a year?

[Ken]

I really wanted to do that race! But my wife had to open and close the store that yesterday. Plus the girls had softball. Maybe next year. Anyone have any pics and info on how the race went and good stories?

Same here, wife was on call all night Saturday maybe next year I will have a chance.

But will not miss the Trail-to-trail though http://www.redtrailracing.com/race_results.html

How was the race?

I had a blast doing this and so did my co-workers. We're definitely going to do it again next year.

Any chance anyone has a URL to pics/race results?

[Alan]

The guy from Redtrail told my buddy that the results would be up in about five days.  My wife and friends spoke to a photographer from freeridesouth.com...said they would have pictures up there.  No one knows when.  I'd probably expect a few days on those too.

The course was great.  Very fast and fun.  Glad I swapped out the knobbies for a set of slicks.

When/where is the trail-to-trail, and where can I find more info?

Some pics are up.  The thread has a link to a photobucket gallery:

Ridge Rider's website and Redtrail Racing are probably other good sites to keep an eye on. 

As usual someone managed to capture a photo of me with a retarded face.  But as my wife said, "At least you are smiling!".  It was a great time.  Can't wait until the next race.

This is my favorite shot.  I think the city needs to cough up the cash for a larger frame for this guy:

Results are at the bottom of this link.  I ended up placing 15th out of 31 in the beginners men class.  Not too shabby for my first real race effort:
