Update for the Akeley Youth Enduro on Saturday:
50cc Race:
Will start at 1pm, riders meeting at 12:50pm
Race on special use trail off lower blue, 1/4 mile east from Martineau Trailhead
Race will be Closed Course format with kids racing 1 lap at a time leaving on whole minutes coming back to start to pit, get a drink, snack, before heading out again.
They will do 6 laps of the course in total.
Keith Wiger did some dirt work on the 50cc course to make it more accessible for little bikes with little wheels. It's looking fantastic.
65/85 Race:
Will start at 3pm, riders meeting at 2:50pm at Martineau Trailhead
Race will leave from South end of and finish at North end of Martineau Trailhead.
Race will be Closed Course format with kids racing 1 lap at a time leaving on whole minutes coming back to start to pit, get a drink, snack, before heading out again.
65cc, 85 Junior, and Girls will do 3 laps
85 Senior will do 4 laps
They will have 2 hours to start their final lap, if they are really struggling on the course we will make suggestions they don't start right before the 2 hour mark because we don't want to be out there all evening holding up scoring and trophies, but will not prevent someone from starting.
The 65/85 course is a great sample of everything Akeley has to offer. Tight, fast and flowy, small bit of clearcut, couple awesome hills, some tree roots and rocks to keep it interesting. Perfect amount of rain this morning, no dust, almost zero mud.
Paul Schommer did an awesome job with others prepping the course.
Sign up and information packets are at Stomping Grounds in the bar. Plan ahead to grab your packets before heading to the race start!
We look forward to hosting the kids for an awesome race tomorrow!
