|
Does anyone have any info on this race? Ive searched the web and really cant find any confirmed info. For those that dont know of this race, I did it for the first time last year and it was a blast. You do need lights, they put you in your different race classes, but everyone just races one lap, time trial type racing. Quite a few people dressed up in costumes as well. Its a very laid back race.....bon fire going on, etc. Great time.........
Anyways, any info would be greatly appreciated _________________ greg

Gordy landed on a lady rider as she unpredictably dismounted in front of him. |
