Here it is the announcement you have all been waiting for the start of the CORCC o9-1o Winter Series, the location of Competition #1.

HORSETOOTH

So here is the plan. Let me know your thoughts.We are proposing Soldier Bay as the location. Parking will be( refer to directions below) limited so this means CARPOOL, you can use the pay parking lot and arrange a shuttle to the smaller one.

There is a small parking lot on your right less than a minute past the main parking area. This is where the short hike starts. Just follow the trail along the rock face down towards the water. Near the shore there is a place to get around the rock to the left. You can't miss it.

This will mean that you should pack effieciently. No wagons! the trail is narrow. It will take 5 minutes to get to the area in a rocky cove on the reservoir. Good foot wear is suggested. Bring lunch if needed. Bring water and sunscreen if its warm.

We can have a few vehicles at this smaller free lot to help with keeping toolboxes and some personal gear at the closer parking lot. You can drop off your gear at the is lot and then park back at the pay lot. We will have to set up a shuttle between the two parking lots. Remember that parking at the Sunrise lot is $6 for the day. Remember that any big jobs for the restrooms needs to be done at the Sunrise parking lot. So eat well and get the job done early. At the comp site just be discreet. Remember to pack out all you bring in. The Park and Rec guy gave us the OK without a permit as long as we keep it low impact.

Directions from the South:

Merge onto I-25 N / US-87 N toward FT COLLINS
Take the HARMONY exit (exit 265) - Turn LEFT (West) onto E HARMONY RD(CO-68 W ROAD)
Continue to follow HARMONY RD(CO-68 W ROAD) This will have some curves but don't turn off of HARMONY.
HARMONY RD (CO-68 W) becomes CR-38E. Follow this up the hill to reservior.

From here use the map on below link. As you first get to the reservoir, you meet with CR23, here you turn Right or North. You should still be on the East side of the reservoir. If you turn South, you have missed the turn. Continue North along the reservoir and turn left at the T-in the road
( continuing North). You drive across one damn and continue to the parking area labled Sunrise on the map (see link below for map). I believe it is just after the second cattle guard. This is the pay lot you will park in. Continue past this lot less than one minute. There will be a small parking lot on the Left just before the road crosses the next damn. This is where the hike to Soldier Bay starts.

So here is the plan Series sign up starts at 8am, comp starts at 9am.

1.9 AND Supers will run first, at the same time. So make sure they are ready, you can run 1.9 first, then super , vice versa, or line up and do both at the same time. We need to get this done in a timely manner! Then we will do 2.2, followed by 1.9 and Super Finals, and then 2.2 Top 5 Finals.

Remember Colorado o9-1o Winter Series specifics

We will be using http://www.usrcca.com/usrcca_rules_2...-09-master.pdf rules so make sure you are up to them, with the exception of the wheelbase rules in super.

So comments, suggestions, insults, shit talking welcome. Bring it.

Finally a comp I don't have to drive almost 2hr's or more.

If anyone wants to just park at my place and carpool up that's an option also. I'm within 10 mins from the spot, PM me and I can give you directions.

Rogue · 09-27-2009, 08:17 PM

Nice, new spot that I have never been too. Now I just got to work some of the bugs out of the new super and finish fixing the 1.9.
Looking forward to it!

Sparky J · 09-27-2009, 08:44 PM

Cant wait.. I have not crawled this spot either and totally looking foward to it.

racerx · 09-27-2009, 08:50 PM

I'm out, probably be at Carnage building an exhaust pipe for the bike (as long as Bastard doesn't go to this)

TURTLE · 09-27-2009, 08:57 PM

TURTLE · 09-30-2009, 10:22 PM

slowrockr · 09-30-2009, 10:35 PM

Say that now, give it a couple years and you'll be drawing the shades so the neighbors don't see you playin barbies too.

dystance · 10-01-2009, 08:23 AM

Just a quick not, after heading North from the pay lot, the small parking lot is on the LEFT just before the road curves right and drops down over the dam. Looking forward to seeing everybody.
