[Red Trail Racing]

It is time again for the roadies and the Mtn bikers to join as one and all come together for the 6th annual Trail To Trail race!!
This year it will be held at Loyce Harpe Park in Lakeland. The local roads have been widened and re-paved for a great 30-35 mile road course.
Racers start with a 7 mile lap at Loyce Harpe Mtn course then transition to the road for a 30-35 mile road course that leads you back to the park to saddle up for another lap in the dirt.

Team and solo categorys and for the hard-core and lover of pain we got the all-mountain class. We are also going 5 deep for awards and medals in most classes.
Flier up soon. Just wanted to get the word out.
Ned more info? Email me at redtrailracing(at)hughes(dot)net or call 8635597588

THANKS!!!

Thanks Ray,
What is the date of the race?  The "all-mountain" class does that mean that you only compete againts other mtb'ers but still do the road part?   Also, do you use one bike for the whole thing or do you have to leave your bike somewhere in a transition spot?  If there is a web site with more info, please post it.  Thanks.

Marcel.......... Re: Trail to Trail Race -Aug 19th. I think that is the date?!


Sorry I couldn't resist.

LOL...  I didn't read the subject line when I replied to Ray.  After no responce I realized why....      My fingers usually type faster then my mind can think.  They always type others things even though I am thinking the right thing.  I just can't spell any better then a 8th grader.   

This is a fun race for sure.  I am sure having the same pedals and shoes for both bikes when doing this solo will help a lot.  I've yet to make it to Lakeland for a ride so hopefully we can get a group to go out there some day.

i might need to go do Cater a couple times first - especially after reading Tinkers blog about that course and him going into the water

Johnaten,
"You cannot call yourself an A rider" unless you can clear all of Loyce Harpe (Carter) and Riddick trails without unclipping or falling in the water.    Hmmmm, that may take me a few years.       OH, and Gatorback at Alafia of course....

[FACTORe]

at least this time of year the water is warm

And the gators are active.

Riddick is the King. What you kill, you keep!   

            Sorry, couldn't resist.
