Help Wanted- Greensfelder Challenge May 7th

The Greensfelder Challenge is this weekend, May 7th. If the forecast comes true, we should have some good drying going on and be able to go ahead as planned.

We need some volunteers to help with the race:

1. A couple shifts of 1 to 2 people to work a road crossing on the Scenic Loop. There were 3 crossings last year, so this will be much easier.

2. A couple people to man a table during the registration. The UFD has printed shirts that will be available to those that race for a small donation to GORC.

3. We need 3-4 people to help with the kids race. Mountain Bike Patrollers would be nice, but anyone is welcome.

That should do it for the most part. We'll be marking the course probably on Thursday and then tearing down afterwards. Help with that is always welcome. I will post details on when.

PLEASE COME OUT AND SUPPORT THIS EVENT BY VOLUNTEERING, RACING OR JUST HANGING ABOUT. GORC received over $1000 from this event last year. We don't get many chances to get cold hard cash for insurance/tool/administrative costs, so it's important that this be a success.

Thanks and let's hope for good trail karma and sunny days to make this happen.

More info and sign-up is here.

UPDATE - May 8 - Greensfelder Challenge

The button is to your right and will take you to the dedicated blog operated by GORC.

Many things have happened this week.

The course map is up, the GPS track is available for download, the information has been posted, classes and registration info, stuff, and the like.

United Federation of Dirt has their info posted.

Come out Saturday and ride after working on the course. The sooner you see it the better you can prepare because it could be one of those things where you need the time to acclimate to the conditions.

We want you to practice. It won't be a walk in the park. Maybe you will be walking in the park. You determine that part.

Racing Poll Results

Here's the breakdown the "Would you support a GORC-sponsored race event to help raise money for the club?"

61 people responded...
42 would race / support the club fundraiser
8 would not race
11 are on the fence due to race fee, schedule, etc.

While we don't have a firm race fundraiser project on the table yet it is good to know that the MTB community would patronize such an event.

Stay tuned in the future for our fundraising ideas and goals.
