Last September I entered into my first MTB race! (stepping WAY out of my comfort zone!) I did not finish due to undiagnosed excercise induced Asthma. If I could have caught my breath, I would've finished. I was the only fat guy there..
(240lbs at that time) I am happy to say that the local bike club that was putting it on made me feel right at home and were very supportive.
Sorry for running off at the mouth...
