This is brief description of the 3 types of rides (for last year's post) with some modifications:
The terrain is desert, some loam (not a lot), sand, DG, and hard pack. I will almost guarantee it to be moist. You will encounter very few rocks (even on the more advanced stuff). Only a handful of trees scattered here and there. Miles of whoops (which can be avoided if desired), live and dead animal sightings will present themselves, sagebrush, and fun. There is challenging terrain for all levels. There is fire roads for those that just want to cruise and sightsee. There are a few natural terrain MX tracks for those interested.
We are running another race at moonrocks 10-27-02. The advanced riders and gung ho intermediates will run the whole course 38miles. In the course will be several small waterfalls (crooked) 4' to 5' high, two 12' waterfalls no water(maybe). For those who get to the big falls and don't want to ride down someone else will just take their bike down, and they can climb down. There is one uphillwater fall 8'(maybe), this can also be ridden around. Miles of sand washes. One two mile stretch of WFO. One of the longest downhill (steep) single track I have ever been on. No real nasty hillclimbs though.
The beginner course will be a lot of flat open rodes combined with some 'not so sandy' ravine type riding.
The intermediate course is the course the minis ran on. Lots of funs for any level, but will be designed for intermediates who just want to have a fun ride without any real hard sections. It is 8 miles long and offers everything except a true WFO section. Unless you are able to go WFO in small whoops . Two washes a tight single track section with some good turns, faster two track, a very small hillclibmb. GSR is going to love the course, I promise!
I will have a generator and heater hooked up in my enclosed trailer for those who are just chillin'.
