here are a few things you should be aware of.....

1- SSAP is sold out. it sold out fast! if you are registered you rock, if not.....well...

2- there is a wait list. there are many on it. if you aren't you can email we will add you to it

3- the wait list is long. probability of getting in......well have you won the lotto lately?

4- the course is near finalization. we are working with the conditions etc... it will be awesome!

5- there will be sweet sweet kegs of beer from a very special brewery. top secret for now!

6- there will be hotdogs, chips, etc for post race feasting! if you are vegan, vegetarian, have an aversion to hot dogs etc....we apologize and ask that you plan accordingly. there will be plenty of beer!

7- cash for the elites, prizes for everyone else!

8- conditions at Stewart yesterday were sweet! but its snowing now...so use good judgment if you are out riding the trails!

9- whatever gear you have on your bike and whatever tires you have are the perfect choice!
