Is there any interest in another team for Great Glenn? It would be great to have another team up there to share in the joy and misery. Plus Dan needs a team, or else he has to ride it solo in the 55+ category.


PJ

I'm starting to think "hmmm, Great Glen sounds like a lot of fun. Timberman, not quite as much fun". As long as there are no bad crashes, I should recover enough after GG to be able to atleast finish the Timberman.

I'm game for a 4 person Sport team.

I'm out of the state that weekend...

I'm in Maine that weekend.

Ryan

I cannot seem to make my mind up regarding what I am going to do on the weekend of Great Glen. There are a number of criteriums that are very close to the same timeframe ... and I know I would not be able to do them if I do Great Glen.

If I do decide to do Great Glen, I am most likely to go solo. Not because I want to be unsociable ... but because I want to see if I can make myself even more exhausted than I was last year ... when I did the two-man with Mark.

Chris, If you decide to do solo. (which you will really excel at), we can and will help any way possible, short of giving up my BBQ meal ticket.

PJ

Thanks for the offer PJ ... I am likely to take you up on it!!!

Chris

This is good Chris, now I won't have to walk alone in the woods at night. And working together I bet we can distract PJ long enough to get his BBQ ticket.

All this Great Glen talk has really taken me out of the whole Triathlon mood. I am in the process of withdrawing from the Timberman and I am 100% committed to Great Glen at this point. If I cannot get a team together, I will join Chris and Dan as a solo.

"If you brake, you don't win." Racer Mario Cipollini

Wayne Chin has thrown his name into the Great Glen team options. Wayne is a strong climber and very smooth technically. He also brings very good mechanical skills. Would make a good addition to a four person sport team.

So who else could fill out the Team Pinnacle Too roster this year?

Dan, Mark and Ken maybe?

I am 100% in for either a 4 person team or solo. I have the money waiting for registration. My only problem is getting a light. Not sure if I can put the money together before August to buy one.

-- Ken
 
"If you brake, you don't win." Racer Mario Cipollini

I have two older lights that are in good working order. Both have waterbottle batteries (well one of them was initially designed as a waterbottle and I have stuffed the other one into one). Now is a good time for me to check them again for burn time (as opposed to August 9th) ... which I will do this weekend. They should be available for use at Great Glen as I will be borrowing two newer lights from Sunapee/S&W Teammates.

Chris

It would appear that we have the makings of a Team Pinnacle four man Sport team: Ken Wiley, Wayne Chin, Brian Highhouse, and yours truly.

Would you gentlemen please respond in this forum so we all know who's in? I think Ken would appreciate a quick response.

If this works out, we will be well reprsesented: A Team Pinnacle Expert team (Brian, PJ,and the Richer Brothers), a Sport team, and two solos: Chris and Dan.

Remember: We do this for the fun - but it's more fun when we win!

MG

I have already withdrawn from the Timberman and have my refund in hand, so I don't need an answer right away, but it would be nice to know sooner rather than later.

Winning is great, but we also have a reputation to uphold of finishing just a few seconds out of first :D . Hopefully TP can shine up its reputation a little this year with a couple wins.

-- Ken
 
"If you brake, you don't win." Racer Mario Cipollini

We already know the TP Experts will do everything they can to bring home first, but it sounds like you have the makings of a winning sport team as well with that combo, certainly no lack of endurance in that team.

For those that may not know Brian Highhouse, I have had the opportunity to ride with him many times in Cornish, he is very strong. Last year he did the Prouty on Sat and Moody on Sun. The only time I've ever heard an ill word out of his mouth was last night in Cornish when a stick mangled his derailleur, I think that is also the only time I've ever seen him come off his bike. After a few minutes his bike was converted to a single speed, big ring to like 17 tooth in the rear, didn't seem to slow him down a bit. Oh, I probably don't need to mention this but by virtue of riding with the Cornish crew regularly he is no stranger to night riding either.

Brian is a great guy, he'd make an awesome 4th person on that team.

Ryan

p.s. last night in Cornish also saw a second mangled derailleur, a busted free hub, and another bike that wouldn't go into lower gears, other than that it was a great ride.

Looks like two Team Pinnacle 4/man Teams, one expert one sport. Chris in 40-49 solo and me in 50+solo. Being solo I like the idea of nine other guys I know out in the woods, This should be a fun weekend. If all nine guys take turns pulling on my bikes bungee cord it should not be too much of an additional drain on your total team efforts to give me a good time. We will have free food /drink and gifts at the Dan SOLO tent site to attract other team members that may be asked to perform minor repair task or coordinated cheering skits.

Dan, the only way I will grab your bungee cord if is someone is in front of me with a firm grasp on mine. That would be quite a sight!

I have known Brian Highhouse for many years and concur that he will be a great addition to the sport 4-man team. A few years ago I think he did a ride across the USA to raise money for lukemia ... so there is little doubt regarding his endurance!!!

That is great news, unfortunately I was told there are scheduling issues with Brian so he won't be able to join us.

-- Ken
 
"If you brake, you don't win." Racer Mario Cipollini

That's too bad about Brian. Who takes his spot?

Ryan

[quote:db861342f2="ROCKBOY"]That's too bad about Brian. Who takes his spot?

Ryan[/quote:db861342f2]

If you want to join us, you need to talk to Mark. He has offered the spot to someone else, but its not a sure thing yet.

-- Ken
 
"If you brake, you don't win." Racer Mario Cipollini

As previously stated I will be out of town for GG, just curious who will fill the void?

Ryan

This being my 1st Great Glen race, I have no idea what I should bring with me other than the basics, bike tools, tubes, tires, food, lights.....

Do we have a checklist of things to make sure to bring??

Chris, can I borrow your lights for the race??

-- Ken
 
"If you brake, you don't win." Racer Mario Cipollini

Who is taking Brian's place?

Do we have any official commitments for the Team Pinnacle Too team yet? It is getting closer to the final day of registration.

I am definitely in, 3 more to go.

-- Ken
 
"If you brake, you don't win." Racer Mario Cipollini

Not looking good for Wayne, so you guys need to find another rider and secure firm commitments soon.

As I understand you have Ken, Mark, and Erik. How about Dan, is he really set on solo?
 
[img:7c60f52a7e]http://www.team-pinnacle.org/albums/bc_personal/120x90.png[/img:7c60f52a7e]

I have a friend from Keene, Tim. He was part of Team Chimera at the Challenge last year. He is a Cat3 road racer and a Sport MTB racer. He is interested, I heard from him this weekend. He said he is in as long as he has a month to get ready. He has a month, so I am assuming he is in. I just have to get a last confirmation from him.

His forum name is TimNKeene.

Hows about it Tim???

-- Ken
 
"If you brake, you don't win." Racer Mario Cipollini

You talked me into it Ken!! I'm in!!
Tim

Looks like we have a team

Mark
Erik
Tim
Ken

Who wants to do the registration and collect money?

-- Ken
 
"If you brake, you don't win." Racer Mario Cipollini

I will register us as Team Pinnacle Too.

You all will need working lights - by working I mean you've ridden with them and tested them to understand their burn time, recharge time, and if they actually work and will stay put on your helmet or bar.

You will also need a backup light (or two). This can be a flashlight, although you probably want a way to fasten the backup light to your bar or helmet.

Following the example of our expert team, we'll each end up riding about three night laps. One around dawn or dusk, and two in the darkest part of the night - with only one lap in between the two (only a partial recharge possible) as we do our "double singles."

Double singles - Instead on doing double laps at night, we pair off and alternate two single laps. Once the first pair completes two (alternating) laps each, the second pair starts their alternating rotation. This gives the down pair an extended rest, but hopefully not with the time penalty of each rider doing two laps in a row in the dark.

There is an excellent discussion regarding lights on this board from last year http://www.team-pinnacle.org/forum/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=214.
Thank you to Brian for this technical contribution.

Ken, you asked a while ago "What do I bring?"

Everything bike related, and enough food to keep yourself fueled from When you arrive either Friday or early Saturday to Sunday afetrnoon.

You'll want every jersey and short that you own. You'll want plenty of warm clothing (damn near froze to death last year). A watch with an alarm (on your wrist) will be helpful. A flashlight or trekking light for noodling around or in camp will help. You'll be camping for two nights- tent, lantern, etc.

With only one 24 hour race in my experience, I'm not an expert. But I believe if we ALWAYS have a man on course we'll have good race. If we ALWAYS have a man on course at night with a functioning light we'll have a great race.

And if the man on the course rides speedy-fast like you do, well, we just might come home with some hardware.

MG

Another guy to be considered if someone bails would be David "wrong way" Skrocki. A Keene guy who is superfast. Sounds like your set though.

PJ

hi all,
who do i send my check to for registration? Gurney? Is it $145 each? and what's our category? i would like to do a few practice laps the weekend before if anyone is interested.
Tim

We are going to be racing as 4 person Sport. Gurney is going to be doing the registration so he is collecting the money. Not sure if he wants it now, or at the event, or what. We can wait for him to reply to find out.

I would be interested in going up for a test ride. Not sure if we are able to or not though.

-- Ken
 
"If you brake, you don't win." Racer Mario Cipollini

The course may or may not be marked but nothing is stopping you from going to the park paying a day use fee and riding the trails. A course map can be found here: [url]http://www.24hoursofgreatglen.com/map.html[/url]

or an offical trail map can be found here: [url]http://www.greatglentrails.com/files/Image/trailMap.pdf[/url]

The current map is from 2006 but they should be updating this before the race, you will have to check back for an updated course map.

Bike pass is $8 for the day and they are open 7 days a week at this time.

Ryan

I may be able to head up on Friday the 3rd for a spin around the trails, a second option would be a long day on Saturday the 4th. Race the Top NOtch Tri, head over to GG and hit the trails in the afternoon.

PJ

FROM: 24 Hours of Great Glen
-------------------------------------------------

Are you ready for the 24 Hours of Great Glen?

13 days until the cannon fires at noon on Saturday, August 11.

I??ll be sending out a few informational emails. You might want to print and bring them with you.

The course is marked ?V you are more then welcome to ride the course
between 8:30 a.m. ?V 5:00 P.M. everyday until race weekend. You will
need to purchase a trail pass and please no riding after hours.

On Friday, August 10 the course will open at noon for all registered racers.

No dogs or other pets allowed at the event. Please read Rule # 29.

Speaking of rule??s - have you read your rules today? (Taken from the web
site-www.24hoursofgreatglen.com)

24 Hours of Great Glen - Rules
1. Captain/Co-Captain: Each team must designate a captain and co-captain.
Team captains will represent the team in all correspondence and communications before, during and after the event. The co-captain can represent the team during the event when the captain is unavailable. Only team captains and co-captains can file protests. Team captains and co-captains will be identified by a bright wristband that will be issued during registration and must be worn throughout the event.
2. Race Meeting: The team captain and/or co-captain must attend the pre-race meeting. However, everyone on the team is welcome to attend.
3. Start/Finish Area (Timing/Check-In-Station): Once in the Start/Finish area or in the teams?? pit area, racers may change, repair or replace any equipment. They may even swap entire bikes. In the Start/Finish area or in the teams?? pit area, racers may accept support from anyone. Also, teams may bring as many support people as they would like, but their support is limited to the Start/Finish area or the teams?? pit area (not on the course).
4. Racecourse: Please, only official registered racers are allowed to ride on the designated racecourse during the event.
5. Technical or Mechanical support on course may only be supplied by registered racers. Supporting racers must access the course under their own power (i.e. foot travel or on bike) and that access can only be achieved by going in the direction of the course. Shortcutting the course is not allowed (See rule #6). Supporting racers should stay clear of all competing racers. Supporting racers may take any equipment or tools with them; they may even swap bikes with a teammate. Support can be provided by any registered racer, on any team, to any registered racer on any team.
6. Shortcutting: Shortcutting on the course shall result in immediate disqualification of that racer??s entire team.
7. Water & Food may be supplied to any racer by anyone, anywhere on the course. However, racers must stay well clear of the course when taking food and water. An official watering station will be located by the Timing Tent. Please, do not litter.
8. Draft: Racers can draft, but they may only draft other registered racers.
9. Right of Way: Racers riding bicycles have the right of way over racers pushing bicycles. When practical, racers pushing bikes should stay on the least ridden portion of the trail when being passed.
10. Lapped riders should yield to leaders. Leaders should be very vocal when preparing to pass any racer. ??PASSING ON YOUR LEFT!?? ??PASSING ON YOUR RIGHT!?? should be used. It??s the responsibility of the challenging racer to overtake safely. Riders being lapped must yield on the first command.
11. When two riders are vying for position, the leading rider does not necessarily have to yield position to the challenging rider. However, a rider may not bodily interfere, intending to impede another rider??s progress; this is to be considered highly unsportsmanlike behavior.
12. Foul Riding: Use of profane or abusive language and any other unsportsmanlike behavior will be taken very seriously. Such behavior by any racer shall subject that racer??s entire team to a warning or immediate disqualification. This will be strictly applied when such behavior is directed at course officials, volunteers or spectators. The penalty imposed is at the discretion of the race director or co-director, should the race director be unavailable.
13. Protests can only be made by team captains or co-captains. Protests will be made in writing and delivered to the race director or co-director anytime during the race, or up to 30 minutes after the posting of the final results. Protests should contain any information that supports the protest, including a description of the incident, witnesses' names, addresses, phone numbers and a signature of the protesting team captain.
Each team will be issued a timing sheet. It will be up to the team to keep track of what your team has done. This sheet will be the only item accepted for protests regarding laps & times. A $50.00 fee shall be submitted, in cash, with the protest. The fee will be forfeited to the race director if the protest is denied or refunded if the protest is upheld.
14. The Event Director and Co-Director have the final say in any ruling.
15. Quiet Hours will be imposed in the camping area on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights from 11:00 p.m. until 7:00 a.m.. During this time period we ask that all noise in the camping area be kept to a minimum. You may be wide-awake but it doesn't mean everyone else should be!
16. Lighting requirements: During the night ride, racers must have a primary light source attached to the bike or the helmet of the rider. In addition, each rider must carry a secondary or backup light sources in the form of a penlight, flashlight or other lighting system.
17. Night Riding: Racers entering the course between 7:00pm Saturday and 6:00am Sunday must show that both the primary and secondary light sources are in good working order and are functioning. If we determine that your lighting system is not acceptable you will not be allowed on course. After 8:15pm on Saturday, riders are required to ride with the lights burning.
Riding with lights out to save batteries is both dangerous and against the rules. Lights must remain on when entering or leaving the scoring tent.
After 6:00am on Sunday, lights may be turned off and dismounted.
18. Charging Station: Battery re-chargers may be plugged in at the designated charging station. Be sure the chargers and the batteries are clearly marked with either your name or your team??s name. Great Glen Trails Outdoor Center will NOT be responsible for the security of either the batteries or the chargers. Please be courteous to your fellow riders'
equipment. Treat it like you want your own equipment treated. NiteRider will be in the expo area ?V if you own a NiteRider you??re more then welcome to charge it with them.

19. Check-In Station
Racers must log-in and log-out on each lap at the Check-in Station located at the Timing Tent.
Each rider will have an individual timing chip that he/she will wear throughout the race. Individual lap times will be recorded and projected real time under the tent as the event unfolds. Riders will scan the chip on the way into the tent just before going to the registrar??s table. Each team will have a baton to pass from rider to rider.
Racers logging-in for the next lap should give their name to the registrar in advance to avoid confusion during the baton change.
The team baton must be passed from the racer logging-out to the registrar who will then pass it to the racer logging-in before the racer logging-in can begin his or her lap.
Solo riders must show the registrar their baton on each lap.
The individual timing chips must be worn on the left wrist at all times.
Once the racer logging-out has given his or her name to the registrar, then that racer has officially logged out.
The log-out time of that racer automatically becomes the log-in time of the next racer (regardless of whether or not there is a racer ready to receive the baton). In other words, the clock is ticking the entire time.
If a racer has not logged in then the racer logging-out leaves the baton with the registrar until a racer does log-in. The logging in racer will then take the baton from the registrar and begin his or her lap.
20. Consecutive Laps: A racer may ride consecutive laps, but must log-out at the Checking in station after each lap in order to log-in for the next lap. If a racer is staying in for additional laps, the racer must log-out from the first lap by telling the registrar that they are in and going back out. The registrar will then record the log-in time and the log- out time (which is the log-in time). The racer can then begin his or her additional lap. If a racer does not follow this procedure on each lap, only one lap will be counted.
21. Verifying the Log Sheet:
Laps will be compiled and recorded for each racer and listed on the bottom of each teams?? log sheet.
It??s the team??s responsibility to verify that each rider is logged-in and logged-out correctly.
Please be patient and courteous while verifying information with your registrar.
A good habit is to state your number first, then your name, to confirm that your registrar is logging you in correctly.
When the next racer receives the baton from the registrar, repeat the procedure to confirm that your registrar is logging you out correctly.
22. Minimum Lap Requirements: Each racer on a team is required to complete a minimum number of laps during the 24-hour period. For example: Each member on a Men's Sport 4 Person Team is required to complete 4 laps. If a team does not complete the minimum laps for each of its teammates then the team will be listed as DNF (Did Not Finish). See rule 23-Scratching a
Rider- for other options.
23. Scratching a Rider: In the event that a team loses one of its teammates due to illness, injury or exhaustion, that team may elect to ??scratch?? that rider from the team and continue to compete. However, the team will be penalized ten minutes for every lap that the teammate did not complete in the minimum lap requirement (See Rule 22). The ten-minute penalty will be taken at the time of the scratch. For example, if a five-person open-class rider were scratched after completing one lap then the time penalty for his or her team would be 20 minutes. The team captain or co-captain must notify the registrar as to which teammate is scratched.
Once taken off the team, a racer may not reenter the race. If the team loses a second teammate then that team is DNF. Scratching a rider CANNOT be done after the cannon fires at noon on Sunday.
24. Loss of Baton or Chip Penalty: Loss of Chip Penalty: Loss of chip will result in a five-minute penalty. The penalty will be charged to the racer logging-in. For example, if racer A is logging-out and has lost the timing chip, then racer B logging-in will be held at the timing station for five minutes. A new chip will be issued and at the end of the five-minute penalty the chip will be scanned giving the "new" end time for the rider who lost the chip and giving the five-minute penalty to racer A. Solo riders who lose a chip will be held at the timing station for five minutes before receiving a replacement baton or chip. Racers who go out on the course without their chip will forfeit that lap or laps. Loss of Baton
Penalty: Loss Baton will result in a five-minute penalty. The penalty will be charged to the racer logging-in. For example, if racer A is logging-out and has lost the baton then racer B logging-in will be held at the timing station for five minutes. Solo riders who lose a baton will be held at the timing station for five minutes before receiving a replacement baton.
Racers who go out on the course without their baton will forfeit that lap or laps.
25. Canceling a Rider??s Lap: Once on the course, a racer must complete his or her lap. However, the team has the option of canceling a rider??s lap and restarting from the Timing Tent with a substitute. This is a difficult and costly decision, but if the first rider is unable to complete the lap for any reason, it may be to the team??s advantage to cancel that rider??s lap. Any team member can cancel a rider??s lap by notifying the team??s registrar at the Timing Tent. Once a cancellation has been made it cannot be rescinded. The cancelled lap does not count towards the rider??s minimum required laps (See rule 22). If a team cancels a riders lap and is restarting with a new rider, the new rider inherits the log-in time of the canceled rider??s lap.
26. Dismount Area: Just prior to entering the Timing Tent you will see a designated Dismount Area. Riders finishing a lap must dismount completely in that area before entering the Timing Tent. This is much safer for everyone.
Riders who do not completely dismount will receive a five-minute penalty.
Second offense, the lap is not counted. Riding on one pedal will also count as a penalty. Please dismount and walk or run across the timing mats to the registrar.
27. The Finish: Each team must have a rider LOGGED-IN and ON COURSE at 12:00 noon on Sunday.
Each team??s final placement will be determined by the number of laps the team has completed and the finish time of the teams?? last lap.
For example, a team that has completed 28 laps with a finish time of 12:31pm would beat a team that completed 28 laps with a finish time 12:47pm.
And of course, a team that completed 29 laps, finishing at 12:50pm would beat them both.
If a rider logs-out before 12:00 Noon and no other team member logs-in before 12:00pm, then no finish time can be recorded and the team will be listed as DNF.
Also, if a team member did not meet his or her lap requirements, then that team is also listed as DNF.
28. IMPORTANT: The race will officially end at 1:15PM Sunday. If your last rider is not logged-out by then the lap will not count.

(The Finish rule does NOT apply to Cruiser Class Teams) 29. Dogs and Other Pets: NO DOGS or OTHER PETS allowed on the property during this event. No Exceptions. Bring a pet and you will be asked to leave, period!!!
30. Safety: For safety reasons, as well as company policy, do not ride your bike or walk on the Mt. Washington Auto Road. You will find two entrance/exit ways to the campground. The first is located by the main entrance of the campground; the second is by the split rail fence in the far North West corner of the campground. Please use these at all times.
31. The Final Rule: Follow the spirit of the event. This event is about endurance, camaraderie, competition, sportsmanship, skill, desire, confidence, mental & physical conditioning and teamwork. Most importantly it is about FUN! Be Prepared! We encourage all of you to build a strong team of riders and support people for the weekend. Do your research and show up ready to enjoy the weekend. Crew 24 is here to help. We want you to walk (or crawl) away from this event feeling as good as we do when it's over.
To ensure a safe event we take these rules very seriously.
Rules are subject to change.
Crew 24 can??t wait to see all of you! ??

Until your next email?K?K

Ken has a new toy, should have it in time for the race. Perhaps you guys should hit up NightRider for sponsorship. It also might make sense to have a spare or two HID lamp replacements, my light in particular is nearly 3 years old.

P.S. I ran both lamps on the NightPro dual handlebar mount last night, lasted about 45 minutes with both on a partial charge, you should get well over an hour on a single lamp with fully charged battery. I think the lower wattage is on the thumb switch and the higher wattage has the on lamp button.

Nathan, I passed my lights off to Brian last night for you. The handle bar mount is yuck but it might get you through in a pinch.

RAIN????

Warm, slight breeze, only a 30% chance of an afternoon shower. This is the best forecast I have seen in years for GG.

Hope to see all you Team Pinnacle riders at Great Glen.

I'll be doing the Double Single with Dawn Kazor this year. We are entered as team "Who Needs Gears We're Polish" and will be under the Rich Blair and company "Big Top", Got some sweetskinz tyres on the BMX.

my NiteRider light has been cycled through a couple times and is ready to go. It is unbelievable how bright that thing is.

Ken you should keep it on in bed tonight just to get accustom to it. Your wife won't care, tell her it's for your safety and you need to have confidence in it. She'll just get a little flash when ever you roll over or get up to piss.

Maz, See you at the big top...... What baseball card you using this year? I got some junky Barry Bonds cards I could bring.

PJ

Good Luck TP. Let the woods shine brightly.
