The Oaks will have a space open to store stuff when you get to the finish line.
It will be open from 8:30 to 9:30 for you to stash a bag of clothes or whatever you want for the finish.

The 2011 Pugsley World Championships.
If Vikings rode Bikes, Those Bikes would have been Pugsleys.
And a good thing it is a Pugsley Event. Because it might be muddy. It might be snowy. It might be Icy. If that doesn't sound fun, please stay home. Any whiners will be beaten with the trophy.
Race starts at 10:30. Registration will be day of. Registration place is to be determined.
The Course is 26.3 miles - give or take.
Google Map of the Course
