Slainte:beer:

I'll see you at the Sea Otter Bro'!:beer:

Danka24,

I know you said you raced Dual and 4X, but have you ever tried any of the NEMBA XC race series (Legg Mason, etc.) here in NH while your here? I race a few of the XC series each year, and would be interested to find someone else on bikeforums who did the same races.

Try bathing, ya freak. :roflmao:

I race XC (sport, 40+). However, I've been told there are other types of MTB racing.:D

i race XC (sport when i was in the US)

but the last 2 years since i've been in Europe i do what are called "marathons" here in Europe which are longer than XC races with MUCH more vertical - usually in the 1200-3000m vertical (4000-10,000ft vertical)... although there's one this summer in Switzerland that my friend wants me to do with him - it's 7000m vertical (that's 23,000 ft of vertical climbing!). the only down side to the marathons is that many are also less technical ---- for me the perfect race is: not too long (2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours) with tons of vertical (1200m++) with tons of technical stuff!!

these days, i kind of use racing as fun to keep me fit for my big tours! well, ok, i also like the competition too!

I am in the two or more group

wheels on the bike go round and round.

Roadies, just for the sport. Then, when they start to gain on me, i switch to the trails. I know that one day, one of em's gunna cross the curb, and take me to school. But, till then, so long sucker!!!!

:lol:

I race XC, i just started this spring. i have only done 4 races and my best finnish yet is 3rd place!

Where I come from most people who race DH also race in the 4x series.

I race DH and this will be my first season of 4x.

XC, rookie 19-30 (?). Probably sport next season.

hey moabrider, i do a lot of xc races in new hampshire, if you want verticle try the mount washington road race. :eek:

I ride the same as hopper as we are riding buddies.

That is DH and 4X but there was only one 4X race this season!!!!

I racce XC. I am one of those gay weenies your Freerider friend talks about :P

LOL, Not really, I do some light Freeriding as well.

I race XC. First season was this spring, had a great time. I know I will be signing up for even more races next season. I'm hooked on it now! :D

I race exclusively XC and hill climbs. Plan on the 24-Hours of Steamboat race in 2005.

i race XT in the WIM series and i did NORBA switzer and i got invited to nationals at mammoth mountain in californa i will be doing WIM series next year and then after that i hope to just be doing the NORBA races

XC* sorry i am just a big dumb animal
