Who's done this race before and could give me some pointers? I've never been but it's looking pretty good that I'll qualify this year so I'm looking into logistics. Anyone have recommendations on lodging (right now just me but my girlfriend MAY come too). I'll be flying out of the Boston area, should I just fly Southwest and transport my bike that way? Any other bike transport options?
What are the trails like? I've heard not technical but tons of climbing? I'm also due for some new tires. I'm torn between the bontragers 29-1 or 29-2 (my shop can give me deals on trek/bontrager stuff) in either the 2.0 or 2.2 size. Any suggestions. Thanks.
