MRC non racing is akin to the cycling version of Oprah's Book of the Month Club (only we don't push fictional crap where you "rediscover" yourself through a series of stupid detox sessions and toilet cleaning. We push the honing of your translation skills for future employment at the UN) where spring time brings the cherry blossoms and total implosion of under trained quads with the Bear Mountain Beatdown. Then just as one believes they have hit their full summer potential we aim to make you understand the true meaning of pain with the Gran Fondo and The Big Indian Scalping.
Having left shattered minds and bodies all over the roads of Ulster & Sullivan Counties the MRC Board of Directors likes to have an end of summer celebration with our esteemed director, Top Chef, holding the Chinaman 100 (this is a metric ride so be prepared to translate kilos to miles) and Braveheart retapping the keg for the event that launched it all - Beer Cross.
Yes you have read correctly, that PBR/habenero/dizzy bat fueled puke-a-thon is back!!!!!! This year expect a bonfire, barn party and lots of mind altering devices like a funnelator (don't be surprised if there is a water balloon section as well) oh yeah there will also be a Cx non race like no other.
You have to survive this
And beat this
To win this
So open up the calendar, get the knife out, cut your finger tip and write the following dates in blood so you don't forget (of course you have the option to tattoo them on your forehead) -
Saturday 8/17 - Chinaman 100
Saturday 9/14 - Beer Cross (costumes are mandatory)
Moar details will follow in the coming weeks and don't forget a six pack of finely crafted IPA is required for each ride (the MRC strongly encourages irresponsible drinking).
