First race (Maybe?)
My goal for this summer is/was to compete in a MTB race but up until now I have not been able to attend a race. The only problem is that the race is a 6 hour enduro. I know that I am in good enough shape to compete (also it's 3 days after I get back from MTBing and hiking in the San Juans) and I also have someone who could be my teammate. I just don't know if this is a good first race. If it helps, it's the Race for Relief at John Bryan sp (and yes I do know about the fast lap series and plan to compete in that for sure, but I want head to head racing, and yes I also know how dumb sounding that is
). Also any suggestions for other Miami Valley races are welcom (and yes I have checked the MVMBA forum). Thanks for any imput, positive or negitive.
Edit: I would just like to say sorry if anything is unclear as it was late and I was tired when I wrote the above text.

Oh, yeah, I've ridden my MTB on dirt for that long (stopped every hour or so for 5ish mins), but why road? I've done century on a road bike with 3 or so between breaks. Also, its a team race, so it would be only 3 hours of actual riding.
