Friday Night
Friday night we will have registration open from 6-8pm, then will head out to do a night lap (or two) after that. Please feel free to join us at the shelter if you'd like to participate in this night ride.
Team Pedal Moraine has ONE group camp site reserved for Friday & Saturday night, and we've had a number of people ask about camping. We're happy to offer some space on our site to whomever will fit. . . . but you'll need to park your cars in the parking lot as there won't be a ton of extra space.
When you check in Friday, find Bill or myself and we'll get you hooked up.
See you at Greenbush!

Race Day food
Just a head's up. . . .last year Brittany Nigh (Sell or Buy with Brittany Nigh) offered up her "famous" turkey (chicken) chili. It was such a hit, she's going to do it again.
This delicious chili will be available after the 6 and 12 hour races (probably after the 3 hour too). So stop on by the chalet and grab a bowl of chili after your race. First come, first serve. . . . .when it's gone it's GONE.
And don't forget we'll also be doing our raffle as well. We'll have a number of awesome prizes for you to win and all the proceeds will go right back into the trails. So bring a few extra bucks and maybe you'll walk away with some great prizes!

Race Time Quickly Approaches
May 22nd is quickly approaching.
Our course will be pretty much the same as last year. Loop 4 just isn't quite ready to race on so we will have to save that fun for next year.
Race headquarters will be setup at the shelter near the main lower parking lot. We will have someone available on Friday night from 6-8 PM in case you wish to take care of getting registration done. We will be setup starting at 6:30 AM race day for registration. (in the shelter)
Last check showed most of the group camp sites as being reserved. We have site number 1 reserved and are able to take on additional campers. A minimal fee of $5 per person per night will be all that is charged. Please check in at the shelter for more information. This will be mainly for tents but we should be able to fit a few "wheeled" campers in as well. We just need to keep the vehicles parked on the gravel area of the site. Overflow parking can be done easily on the main parking lot.
Please remember that this location is a Wisconsin State Park. Admission stickers will be needed for vehicles and trail passes required for racing/riding. We will have passes available for purchase and this will also be...yes you guessed it...found in the shelter!
I do not have official confirmation at this point but racers can likely look forward to some type of delicious post race grub provided by Brittany Nigh.

Greenbush Update
Last Saturday a number of mountain bike enthusiasts assembled to work on the Greenbush Trails. The two way traffic between loops 1 & 2 were separated (with approval from the DNR) so now you're free to take those trails at "high speed" without fear of encountering an on-coming rider.
Each Saturday through April we will be working on the trail system with the hopes of completeing loop 4 in time for the 12 hours of Northern Kettles. If you're interested in helping out, even if it's just for a day or even an hour, please join us in the main parking lot at 8:00am Saturday mornings.
We're working to make your trails a better place to ride.
