What IS the DSG ride Yvonne? I might commit if I knew what it was (maybe Chris too). Then we could hold you to the Jack and Back! I'm going to be doing plenty of mountain biking. Have to get ready for the Muddy Buddy adventure race in late May. Definitely pray for great weather for next weekend! Should be lots of fun.
The DSG is the Dirt, Sweat & Gears. It's a 12-hour mountain bike race held each May in Fayetteville. It's a huge event with more in "door" prizes than purse money. But the pro's and personalities come out as well. (I think I wrote about this in the newsletter)
The website is dirtsweatandgears.com and there's a whole section of nationalmountainbike.com for DSG.
Race 12 hours solo, or on a team. Good clean fun, except for the dirt mud sweat and beers.
The course in a 10.6 mile loop with 1600' or so of climbing per lap. It is private and only open on certain dates.
