Boggs V is FULL!

WHEN

April 3rd, 2010: Easter Saturday

WHAT

8 Hour Solo and Team Mountain Bike Race: A long tradition has begun.

Boggs 5 will celebrate Bike Monkey’s 5th year as an event producer. Each year this mountain bike race has sold doubled in size until last year when it sold out to the tune of more than 400 participants.

START

Everybody starts in waves at 8:15-ish AM, minutes apart with the fastest categories going first.

Your last lap must START by 4:15pm and finish by 5:00pm to count in your results. You’re getting MORE TIME this year.  Why? We expect the lap times to be a little longer than years prior due to a modified course. (these times are subject to slight modification pending final course evaluation)

Team riders must each race at least 1 lap, or your results will not count.

CAMPING

You can camp at Boggs for FREE any time of the year, and on event day there are no exceptions to that rule.  The only difference is you’ll be sharing this fantastic forest with many close friends and families.

NO WASTE

Last year with over 700 total visitors we left with a single household bag of trash!  How did this happen? Because you all made it happen. We have a hard rule at Bike Monkey: you pack out what you pack in. If it fit in your vehicle when you came, it will fit in your vehicle when you leave. The forest rangers have raved about our treatment of Boggs since our first year because we leave it in better shape and cleaner than when it was when we arrived. That’s how it should, and will continue to be.

BRING YOUR OWN PLATE-WARE

Part of our no-waste policy is our enforcement of another simple rule: bring your own plate-ware please. REI sells awesome reusable camping dishes and utensils. Hook yourself up with some of that stuff and never waste another disposable dish. The alternative: buy a set of compostable trash from us for a few bucks.

REGISTRATION

Registration for Boggs 5 is limited to the first 500 participants.  Registration for this event is expected to fill soon after it is made available.  So don’t sit around thinking about signing up for too long.

(UPDATE: As of 24 hours after registration was opened, only 300 spots remain)
