Marty's Triple Crown of MTB

Finally registered for the Enduro. Was a good time last year. Hopefully i'll have @extremedave to pal around with again this year.
 
So I've never done any kind of true MTB racing, but I like DMP and I like going downhill. Is this for me? Like worst case this is just a ride I pay for, right? 😬

EDIT- IN!!!!!

What's the deal with packs for this sort of thing (Iron Mountain)? Do people ride with them or just carry a bottle on bike and refill between stages? Any other stuff I need to know as an enduro noob?
 
Totally bring a pack with necessary goodies you'll be out there a couple hours or so. You may not be able to go back to your in between stages.

Looking at the transfers, you can probably drop a bag off Irish Spring Rd. and just return to it periodically.

I dont like racing enduro with a pack myself....(I like to be as SLEEK AND AERO as possible 🙂 ) in the case of this race...the transfer often goes back by martys and the parking lot...so I just swung by my car for more water. I carry my tools and such in my bib pockets.

I'm not old school, I am pretty cool, but I will be riding with a Camelbak as well!!!

@UtahJoe I won't ever be mistaken for sleek or aero, and the use of the term 'racing' for me in this event is VERY loosely going to be used. 🧐
 
Sun came out!

Lame! It's fine here. Trails will be slick but whatever, just take it easy. Too cold for my liking but better than 90 degrees.

Yea, you were right. I just went with my original gut, which was to bail. Had everything packed and ready to go last night, too.

NYCMTB repped, tho. Took first place Women, 6th and 11th Men. Not too shabby.
