Default Albuquerque Distance Race

I was thinking instead of having a set course, we could just say, "go here, no course just see you later!" it could be any type of board, just see how many people we can get to come!

Exactly what I was thinking!!! Took peeps a bit to get that part of it... Probally serve breakfast at the meeting place/start line then race to some place with good food for lunch. Probably have to find someone to sponsor us, pay for food, or just have an admission fee for food and such. Hopefully APD doesn't mind us

Well, we could get a couple peeps with insane skills to do the quickest route beforehand, and if anyone obviously is cheating we just send them away. Anyone know peeps that would sponsor such a race thing? I was thinking the winner could get money or something

seriously why sponsors? why pay for entry?

lets just start a thread that all the bourque boarders subscribe too, then whenever anyone knows where they're skating, they just post.

lets just skate.

I've got an idea for a course. Start at the top of Simms Park Road, go down to Tramway, skate south along the bike path that parallels Tramway, then hop in 3 Mile ditch to Morris, go south on Morris to Constitution, then pick up the "Cross Town Race" course (with a few modifications...) and end at UNM.

Check it. (Click on "action" then "plot elevation".)
Bicycling, bicycle, bicycle parts, bicycle trips, bicycle tours, cycling, cyclists


It's about 14 miles. Has one hill over 35mph (Simms), one ditch at about 25-30mph (3Mile), and another hill at about 30mph (Washington).
