So
Jeff and I are leaving for
24 Hour Nationals at 7am tomorrow with our caravan of Mazda P5s with two
Cannondale Rushes on each roof...it's a pretty cool sight really. Off work at 2pm today and then it is home to get all of my pit supplies, clothing, and tools packed up and ready to go. Out to the grocery store for food and drink supplies for Amy and myself and then back home to prep some of that food for the weekend. Plans are to pre-ride the course on Friday afternoon and then sit around relaxing in a hotel room for the evening. It looks to be a scorcher this weekend during the day and remain warm through the dark hours although I will still be taking all of my cool riding gear as well as rain gear because one just never knows what the skies might do.
Speaking of the dark hours...
local brevet rider and friend Mike Fox has come to my rescue and is going to lend me his
Cateye Double Shot for the weekend. Funny thing is that he just bought them today and is allowing me to take them before he has even used them. My original plan was to use Jeff's backup
Triple Shot but I would rather use a helmet mounted light and Mike has offered up his which means the triple shot will be my backup. Therefore, Mike is my official light supplier for the
24 Hour National MTB race.
Thanks a bunch Mike, I owe you one!!
I should have a recap of the race up by Monday afternoon so check back then.
