   Mountain Bike Racing      (email contact Ted Benning) 
 

  • THE BURN - Thank you so much for dedicating your time!  The Burn was a big success. An mtb race can be produced that is compatible with the desire/demand for low-to-no environmental impact. An mtb race can be produced that is engaged with the interests of land management. A mtb race can be formatted outside the conventional model in order to lend a unique, challenging and rewarding experience for racers while meeting the aforementioned interests. And, The Burn reflected well on TER.  René photos

  • 2008 Leadville Trail 100 Mountain Bike Race Entrants - If you are registered for the LT100 this August, Dean Cahow would like to hear from you. Dean is an LT100 veteran and would like to offer this year’s TER racers and crew chiefs the opportunity to get together in a social setting in June. The idea is to make those introductions that haven’t been made, before we all get up to Leadville on race weekend; to have some fun and a little riding; and to gain the benefit of bringing racers and crew chiefs of varied LT100 experience together for a confab focused on this great race. Contact Dean for more information.
