juniors at the vernon race

hey micho!

thanks for puttin on such a great race and still finding time for a womens and juniors class!

i really think that was a good idea doing junior heats, and really think all the other races in bc should follow the same lead.

if all the young guys that are 18 and under in their first and second seasons had a seperate class to race with, they would get soooo good. i know racing with the big boys is good for them...but racing with people your own size and skill level will produce some fine young racers and make it even harder for you guys to stay ahead (which i know is already getting difficult)!

i know time is an issue with this kind of thing, but i could really see it working out since most are eliminated within the first/second rounds anyways!

what do you guys think?

i agree with ya katie, juniors and womans categories should be added to every race seeing as the amount of riders has increased rapidly and will continue to do so.

your right,
it does make you ride harder...but what if you had to work just as hard to stay ahead instead of try to catch up...have a full day of racing instead of getting taken out first or second round

i guess we'll have to see!
