Stephens 100k Race May 2021?

Cool idea.

We could do a Iron Furnace, Lucky, Bearscat, Stephens, MTBNJ Stewart (if endurance) local Endurance Race Series. Call it the “North Jerzy Rocks Endurance Series”.

The East Coast (NJ) needs an Ultra 100 mile race to cap off the series.
 
Halloween weekend would probably pull too many folks away especially with it being in a weekend. We’re looking at November 7th. Especially since that is teacher convention weekend and I have thurs/fri off.
 
November 7th sounds like a good weekend. Should still be great weather, and cooler and not humid for an endurance event.
 
Not sure what you guys have planned for the CX race but 10-24 might be a bit safer option.

A possibility too but the weekend after Erie 80 is not ideal. Especially if we are thinking series-wise. Also less than a month away from our Cx race. We barely have help as it is I don’t want to overwhelm people.
 
Nov 7?

So you're doing a MTB race on the same day and event space as the CX race? Awesome. Fun for the whole family.

Are you calling it Waterloo CX? I think it's taken.

I just solved all your problems in life. You're doing a MTB race during CX Season. So run both at the same venue. You have areas that supports the CX race. Heck, do it over at Tilcon lake and you can have a UCI friendly start on the pavement...

Gives people something to spectate while their significant other is doing the MTB race. If the timing works out people can do two races, one MTB, one CX.

If you're going to be hanging out for hours while people are in the woods, may as well run a CX race at the same time!

Sounds great in theory but we barely have enough help to run one event never mind two that coincide. And there’s the fact that a Cx race at Tilcon lake would be boring as shit. There’s no good terrain there. Trust me I wish this was a possibility. It’s what lead us to that area in the first place.
