We keep them fairly flat, easy, fun rides than anyone can do. Novice and beginners can expect something similar to Horse Gulch s Meadow Loop. Keeping the races physically manageable also opens up the series to more children, who may go on to be the racers of tomorrow, Call said. To get children even more involved, the race also features a traveling junior cup, which is awarded to the junior high with the most cumulative points at the end of the series. The cup now resides at Miller Middle School.
Many racers stay overnight at the venues, setting up their own tent community.
