Thanks to everyone who came out for the Chainless Downhill tonight!

The fun has just begun, as tomorrow is the:

The Specialized Euro Enduro - A new format to the Ripper, racers will be timed on three downhill descents of a classic Shore loop; but they need to get to the top on their own.

-Registration begins at 8am and ends at 9:45am, at Inter River Park. Racers will begin making their way to their respective starts at 10am and must complete the stages by 2:00 pm
-Riders will have 3 descents that they need to get to by their individually outlined times. The riders will only be timed for their descents. The 'race' is the combined time of the three descents that they ride during the day- lowest time wins. It is up to the racer to make it through the timed stages by the 2:00 cut off.

-Racers will be organized into TWO groups based on their categories. The two groups will make their way to the timed descents in a different order then each other. The groups will be finalized tomorrow but as of now:

Group#1
15-19 Men
20-35 Men

Group #2
36-50 Men
36-50 Women
20-35 Women
51+ Men

Each group will make their way through the timed stages in a different order:

Group #1 will ride DH#2-[HTML_REMOVED]DH#1-[HTML_REMOVED]DH#3
Group #2 will ride DH #1 -[HTML_REMOVED] DH#2 -[HTML_REMOVED] DH#3

-Maps of the course and suggested transition stages will available at Registration.

NEW Specialized Race within a Race:
Specialized is sponsoring a “timed climb” stage during the Euro Enduro. This will be an optional (but highly recommended) stage and will not affect your overall enduro time. The top male and female winners of this stage will receive a gear package from Specialized. The timed climb section will be the Bridle Path Climb from Fisherman’s to Hyannis, get your legs ready!

See everyone tomorrow!
