The G-Rant : Grant's Rants on Adventure Racing

“Without adventure, civilization is in full decay.” - Alfred North Whitehead

Richmond April 7th (Night training and information session)

Here's a chance to make sure those bike lights work, your night nav is "on," and your team dynamics can handle a bit of sleep deprivation: Richmond ASR is hosting a mock adventure race on Saturday April 7th from 5 PM until 2 AM (times are approximate -- once you register you'll be included in the specific details).  It's being held at Pocahontas State Park, just south of Richmond.  It's a great venue; we organized a race there last Spring.

The timing for this event is great, with the TT and the Untamed Virginia Adventure Race -- both having significant overnight components -- just around the corner. 

I'll be doing a talk at the Blue Ridge Mountain Sports in Richmond, VA that Saturday (April 7th) at 2 PM in advance of this mock-race, so if you want to drop by and talk a little AR at Blue Ridge before getting out and doing it, please feel free.  I think BRMS is just about 20 minutes from the park, so there timing works out really well.  I'll be talking at Blue Ridge about preparing for 24+ hour adventure races, with some specifics geared to the Untamed VA race, and do some Q & A along with some giveaways.  After the talk, I'll head off to the Pokie for the evening activities!
