What do you guys think of a CLIMB sponsored race and fundraiser at CHP? I told Jerry(peak bikes) about sponsoring a race at chp and I also mentioned this to one of the climb officers a few years back at chp when they were fixing the trail. I think this is a very good idea Levi, I hope they'll do this once a month or twice at chp or more ;D. This will make a lot of ny mtber's happy. I think Daniel's group nycmtb used to sponsor a race every weekend at highbridge trail. I told Daniel why not do it here in chp? I'm sure there will be a lot of participants. I'll be first in the line for sure.  And yes it will be a good fundraiser for the climb as well. This will be a good practice for us for the h2h races. ;D Oh yeah I don't mind paying a registration fee that's good for the climb organization. Imagine a time trial race in chp? Man that sounds really fun! Let's go climb! We are in! |

Thanks for the input Erwin. I spoke to Mike V and he said that CLIMB has insurance coverage for this type of event. He likes the idea as well.
What about parking and other facilities?

nycMTB one I think is called summer sprint series at Highbridge. I'm pretty sure it was free and they did it in the summer once a week around 5 or 6pm. I think it was every Thursday or something like that .. it was definitely on a weekday. It kind of fizzled out this past summer .. probably because of Jaime's pending departure to CO, but I remember hearing a lot about it in the past years.

Yeah, I heard about the races at Highbridge Park. It was also at BIKE magazine. Wouldn't it be great to do such a series in CHP? I think so. Just make sure you heard it in here first.  |

Yes, we know about this and our very own Lia has won the first ever Highbridge sprint series in the female category. And I believe she has been doing this sprint series even this past summer. |
