It's that time of year again, we have a Trail Benefit Race at Hillside this May. See PDF attachment for details!

EDIT: New Race Date, May 5!

I don't know if this matters to you or not, but that is the same day as the spring opener in Callaway, MN. That's a UCI event and I think pretty much anyone who is big into racing in minnesota is planning on being up there to race and watch the pro's ride. It might hurt attendance.

Race date changed! Now May 5th!!

Jay's Race up at Maplelag is the 12th & 13th unless I'm missing something... FYI... They have upwards of 10 miles of singletrack now on the Maplelag grounds... Biggest issue though is the stuff doesn't get ridden enough, very soft, any precip and it's mudfest...

Don't mean to divert this thread... Props to the BLAST without them we wouldn't have any north Metro trails...

Mr. Sauber -
That is exactly why we changed the date. We checked race dates for MNSCS, WORS, Cable Classic, road, --but did not notice Jay's event until the last minute.

My original post was before they changed the date.
