    Over 40 Senior MX Class

    Again, Im throwing out the feelers. Im considering reduced laps for this possible class at riders' discretion. Are there old guys out there who would like to give it a try, but are intimidated by the young riders in novice classes? Mayeb three laps is a but much, and youd like to give it a shot, but one or two laps is more than enough! (Dont let the track fool you. 3 laps will wear down a conditioned rider.)

    On the spirit of why this class is considered, it would not be open to Expert Class riders, and possibly not even Advanced Class riders, depending on circumstances.

    Is 40+ a good age cutoff? Higher?

    Again, the poll is for potential riders only. Post your comments, age below. You can post in the poll on behalf of an elder if he doesnt use the computer, provided he has agreed to it, and you are doing it at his direction.

    This poll allows more than one selection, so if you vote to race, also vote on laps.

    Age 48 at this year tri-fest.
    Tim,
    I see your point about 40+, not letting expert or advanced ride in this. Could it
    be changed to 45+ and be open to all? 5 years makes a difference!
    Tri-fest 3rd weekend? If so, I'll be able to stay the weekend. Last year my son and I could only stay in the middle of the week due to his track and field competition that Saturday.

    If you are serious, we could squeeze you in. You ride like a much older guy anyways. Go ahead and vote in the poll if you want.

    Man, I guess I made this poll too complicated for old people! You can make more than one selection. SELECT ALL THAT APPLY! Theres even one option on there for Speedbump!

    They are trying to get the brochure ready for release so I need to make a determination quickly.

    I did not vote on the first two lines because of the "punks" wording. Anyone who rides three wheels is allright with me, no matter what age. I refrain from name calling. I would like a senior class,and to run in the general class, run same laps,
    and throw in a beginners class for under 40.
