Cheat Valley Vista

Yesterday was the annual WVMBA race planning meeting, so Pete and I headed over to Coopers Rock State Forest for a ride before the meeting. Many thanks to Marc Glass for the guided tour of the rocky, beautiful trails. The main lookout at Coopers Rock is so cool that it's hard to describe, and several of the trails traversed rock formations and rhodo tunnels. It was a sunny, beautiful December day. A few miles and a few margaritas later it was time to get down to business. Things are still being finalized but it looks like there will be no shortage of fun events on the race calendar for 2007, including two Ohio/W.V. dual points races. Tentatively, it looks like it will be logistically possible for some crazy loons to be competitive in both the Ohio and West Virginia series if they want to race every weekend for about six months. Any takers?
