Discussion related to the MNMBS series.
Hey racer folks, The course is shaping up amazingly well for the Great Hawk Chase, which is coming up in about 3 weeks. As of today our rehabilitation of the trails at Lester are complete and we now have a fast, rolling 4.5 mile loop of IMBA singletrack along either side of a beautiful river...
MNMBS events page lists two different times for pre-riding on Saturday: 10:00–2:00 (1st paragraph) and 1:00–3:00 (Other Info). So... which one is correct?
Hey, Has anyone been on Buck Hill lately? I am curious about trail conditions for this Sunday. Thanks, Tom
Has anyone tried to register on-line? The link on http://www.mnmtbseries.com/page/show/4836-race-7-buck-hill-birch-bump takes me to the 2009 registration (which is closed obviously).
The next stop on the MNMBS tour is at Hillside this Sunday. The trail has been getting tons of attention the last couple weeks, and it really shows. Thank you to all the DirtWirx volunteers who've come out to pitch in some sweat and blood (to the skeeters) to make the trail better for everyone. ...
Here's where I'll continue to upload all of my photos from this year's races. http://www.flickr.com/photos/grizzlyadam/collections/72157624122859632/ Mostly I'll have Sport photos, as that's when my teammates are racing. If it works out that I get some Citizen pics, they'll be found here as...

Found near the Peace Coffee tent yesterday: Gray Trek water bottle and a white OneOnOne water bottle. Also found a blue Giro helmet with a pair of womens gloves tucked inside. If any of these are yours let me know and I'll bring them with to the MMBS race at Buck in two weeks. Otherwise PM...
My girlfriend lost her ring at the race Sunday day. Single stone ring. She thinks she lost it right by the port a potties when she was sanitizing her hands. Not a huge ring but means a lot to her. If by chance you found anything, please PM me. Thanks!!!
If you made it down to Red Wing today, I would like to ask for your feedback on the course you rode today. Good and bad. If you don't feel comfortable posting a public response, pm me. We really appreciate your feedback and we use it when we make decisions about course layout, lap length and the...
An ambulance and rescue squad pulled in as I was leaving Sunday. Anyone know what happened? Nothing too serious, I hope.
Bluff Riders Charge and Memorial Classic Photos are now Online. You can find them here
Curious if anyone else lost their series number plates yesterday in the Red Wing race due to the rain. I saw a lot of number plates all over the trail during the race as the rain must have softened them up to the point they were simply falling off. I didn't notice mine was gone until I crossed...
Holiday racers, time is winding down to save some bucks on registration, so get online by 8pm Thursday. We look forward to seeing you there. If you want to save a few more bucks, I have about 5 spots left for volunteers on Sunday. I would be happy to comp your entry for help from a rider or...
Dear Squidbox, I was wondering what your suggestions are for tire choice at Redwing after your pre-ride? It was fast and dry yesterday, but with the eminent threat of rain I was thinking of bringing a second set in case of a Mt Du Lac repeat. Thoughts? -Tired in Eden Prairie
racers spectators and family. we are still looking for 3-4 people to fill in from 8am-12 on Sunday. I have flexible options. let me know if you can help out. thanks and think sun for sunday. Adam Schmidt MPR
I have some friends coming who might have a handicapped family member join them. I'm wondering, is it possible to have them go around the barrier near the parking lot and park along the paved road closer to the start/finish line? Or get dropped off? I'm not sure of the extent of their handicap, so...
The course at Red Wing this year will be very similar to last year, provided it isn't raining. Changes from last year: Kids will probably do the full start loop this year, but not go all the way to the 5 way on the very far end of the bluff. This will shorten their lap very slightly, but will...
We just lost our medical to the pending nurses strike. If anyone has the skills and the time this Sunday let me know, compensation is available. spread the word if you have a contact who may be interested. thanks. Adam Schmidt MPR
Here is the list of lost and found from Sunday's Bluff Rider's Charge. If you would like to be re-united with your stuff, please e-mail your name & shipping address to: mike.busch@hickorytech.net plastic bag 'o stuff with XL Wannabee t-shirt, water bottle, MonaVie... black frame...
Just a reminder that Bluff Riders Charge will be the last event for racers to register with the series. You will want to register with the series if you are interested in being tracked from race to race, want to participate in team scoring, and become eligible for year end awards. ...
Wave times posted online is nice...just sayin'.
After the Bluff Rider race, I found a pair of blue & white Giant gloves in the parking lot. They were in the dirt but in the middle of the driveway so I assume they were left on someone's roof. Gloves are dirty and full-finger. If they're yours, let me know and I'll either bring them to Redwing or...
Any update on how things are looking down in Mankato? We were down last weekend and the course had been washed out in sections from heavy rains. And, the forecast looks like they will be getting more rain in the next couple of days. :banghead:
When parking for the Red Wing race, Please, do NOT park between the fork in the road (that has a barrier across it for a reason) and the area where the porta-potties normally sit. The road is narrow and when cars park there, it can make it hard or impossible to get an ambulance in and out. If you...
