Saturday Race Info (Rikert); Sunday Junior Training

SATURDAY:

The Central VT Nordic Coop 5km/10km skate race is on Saturday at Rikert Ski Area (aka, Breadloaf) down in Ripton, VT. Rikert currently has approx 3km of manmade snow so it should be a great event. The estimated start time is around 12:00 noon. Due to limited snow and a local BKL practice from 10:30-12:00, we have to adjust and be a bit flexible as there is a LOT of demand for skiing with very little supply of snow. It looks like we will have an awesome turnout of athletes from around VT with some Burke Mtn Academy, GMVS, Frost Mtn Nordic, Woodstock and a lot of our MNC crew!

Tim will plan to arrive at Rikert by around 11:00am. If folks need help with a ride or carpooling, please email Tim no later than 5:00pm on Friday evening.

SATURDAY WAXING:

We ask that participants do NOT use Pure Floros or High Floros (HF) waxes. Please keep it simple with just basic paraffins or LF waxes. It is supposed to be very cold, so I suggest some sort of Green or Blue glide wax (Swix CH 4 or LF4, Toko LF Blue, or something similar for temps in the single-digit range).

SUNDAY JUNIOR TRAINING

We are tentatively planning to ski at Craftsbury from approx 10:00-12:00 noon on Sunday. Classic skiing.
