What are the Fast & Furious 2 Hours of Lodi all about?

 

This will be the first year of this race and the first of its kind - a SHORT, night lap only race. There are no teams, so it is basically a back-to-the-basics mtb race with the "usual" categories. What's different, however, is that everyone will race a short lap as many times as possible in 1 1/2 hours (and then party for a Fast and Furious 1/2 hour for a total of 2 hours) - and it's all in the dark. The first three in each category with the most laps are in for the prizes. Race starts at 7 p.m., so you should have no trouble getting home (with a designated driver) after you had one of our brews. Better yet - just get a hotel room in Fredericksburg and go out downtown!!

The trails are fast with some windy, rooty, and hilly sections. I won't decide on the course until a week beforehand, but if you would like to pre-ride the trails, follow the directions below. Please make sure to leave a donation in the donation box, so that the landowner can keep the trails open for us!!

Also a HUGE thanks to Revolutions Cycles for sponsoring the race with Schwag

We will have plugs to charge some lights, but these are limited in number. I am still on a hunt for a title sponsor, so we'll see what happens!

 

Misc: The trails of Lodi Farm are on the private property of Mrs. Grigg. PLEASE respect the land and its owner by leaving the farm as you found it - take your trash with you. Please give Mrs. Grigg thanks, HUGS and a hand shake if you run into her - we couldn't continue this awesome race without her support of our sport!
