Abominable Snow Series

[ak greeff]

did anyone happen to pick up a yeti mask stashed in a tree well at the intersection of baseball boogie and the tour trail. I went back for it after the race and it was gone. Thanx -Ab Snowman

^did you ever locate your mask?

Looking forward to tomorrow. Has anyone ridden the bear trail lately?

[ak greeff]

No mask. My last hope is that someone brings it tomorrow

Rode Brown Bear last night...it is nice and hardpacked but a little narrower than most of the other trails. As you probably know, it is also quite steep in sections. I had all most of the Susitna Gear on the bike last night and had to hike a little bit. Should be a real A S S kicker!

[ickyickyptngzutboing]

Nate-worthy steep? Or Endomorphs should do (considering what should be a good amount of hardpack elsewhere)?

Hi Ak Greef, here is the picture of the yeti mask (I think ...) !

[ak greeff]

yeah that's it. i went out last night with lights looking for it but must have missed it. There are lots of white tuft's on trees right now. Nykolaz if you see it again could you grab it? I will could come get it from you somewhere. Thanx

With all the snow fall today I'm not sure it's gonna be rideable tomorrow but I'll give it a shot and will try to grab it this weekend or tuesday the latest. I should have grab it the last time ! I'll let you know.

So the ASS 4 course directions have me confused. So for the Open Series you do the following:
- Leave Parking Lot
- Ride Loop 1 (La-Te-Da)
- Ride Loop 2 (Hang a Right onto Loop 2, COMPLETE FIRST LAP)
- Ride Loop 1 (Skip Return to Parking Lot, Straight to Loop 1)
- Ride Loop 2 (Hang a Right onto Loop 2, COMPLETE SECOND LAP)
- Ride Loop 1 (Skip Return to Parking Lot, Return to Parking Lot on Tank)
- Return to Parking Log

I don't ride out that way too often, so I'm trying to minimize my getting lost-ness. Is the above correct? Thanks!

Once you finish loop 1 for the second time, that is the end of the lap.

"I labeled the map loop 1 and loop 2 for descriptive purposes. So loop 1 and loop 2 count as 1 lap, however at the end of your lap(s) you will complete loop 1 once more and finish out the straightaway on the tank trail to the parking lot / finish. Open class will be doing 2 laps instead of 3, and Cruiser will still be doing 1."
