The race will start with a la mahns start. then down bumps, and so on. the course wont be hard, just alot of fun. when you get to the botom you get on the lift again and do another lap. you can race solo 2 Person, 3 person, or 4 person team. youll be counted on laps + the time after the 12 hr mark. It would take place on a saturday so you can party all night afterwards. I was thinking keep it in day hours, but some people i talked to wanted some night riding too.
i think it would be a blast.... let me know

I think the party should be mandatory during the ride. 1 Beer per lift ride.

If that's the case, then you and i should consider this past weekend the beginning of our training... were going to kick ass!

would it be the same trail the whole time? It sounds like a sick idea, but if you get to choose differant runs people would prob just do that uber fast like 20 second fireroad.

that would be an awesome idea. would there be any categories or anything. maybe just like amature and xpert/pro cause the better riders could easily get in alot more runs i would think.

I think it should more like 6 hours, Cause after 12 hours people will be definitely "dead", and I my opinion we should do it on Sunday rather than Saturday, but that is my personal opinion, and is just a suggestion

That sounds like a sick idea, I would totally be down. Is this gonna happen for real?

Sounds fun. Though it could cause some MAJOR congestion on the trail. I could see that being the most frustrating factor of all. That and broken bike parts.
Either way, I'd be into it.
