Friday night camping closed.  no bueno

32/18 and done. 

Thought about seeing if you wanted to do a duo SS but I'm too cheap. That's a lot of coin for 3 hrs of racing.

Having done the 6hrs of Warrior Creek on a single speed, I think you should rethink your gearing choice.

I run 32/18 for duo, but gear down to 19 for solo or wet conditions.

But you need more than one lap doe

Rather have 6 slower laps than the one fastest instead of 5 fast laps

I FORGOT I HATE LAP RACES

Is a bike switch allowed by the rules in later laps?

I've brought extra cogs incase I wanted to change during the race but never decide to do it.  There is no reason you can't change your bike single speed to single speed.  The transponder in on the number plate so when you move it over it should go with it.

I've seen some races where they say you can not switch bikes but I don't know about warrior creek. But why bother, with the layout you can run just as fast on a 32 19 as you can a 18, you may get a little better start on the pavement but you are gonna pay for it on the trail. Heck if you are a spinner I think you could get away with a 20 up there.

This is why I stopped racing it. 

I have good stamina and can pedal for a while, but I am not fast enough to get through the guys on geared bikes trying to get to the single track. I also know that if I tried to get through them, I'd blow up and it would hurt me later. I ended up towards the back of the group and then had to pick my way through people in the resulting conga line that is the first lap. Either way, lots of lost energy.   

After lap one, it thins out so much its like a different race. I would get 4 laps overall  - I just hated that first lap so much it kind of ruined it for me.

Not sure that is true for this event.  The first lap for the pack is literally like bumper to bumper traffic.  It's kinda miserable.  On a single its especially bad because you cannot use your momentum and you waste a lot of energy.

maybe ill just wait until it isnt as crowded to start my first lap? maybe this plan will work in my favor

Just take the first lap off.

Saw on the 6WC Facebook page that because of weather, the race might get bumped to Sunday or maybe the fall.

If you aren't on their FB site, and youre racing, go check it out.  (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links);

They said they will know by Thursday.

well, the first 2/3rds of that race was awesome. could have done without that fifth lap in the peanut butter though.

You finished in 5:14... which means you coulda went out for a fifth lap.

That said, I was out on that last lap for about an hour and eight minutes after you finished.  If you think the course was bad on your last lap...

Lemme tell you some stories.
