WHY I SIGNED UP, WHEN NOBODY ELSE IS GOING?
WELL, I PULLED THE TRIGGER on a race that only a handful of people have committed to. It's not cheap. It's not close. And, No, I didn't do it...
... because I'll probably win.
I mean Who wants to be the State Gravel Champion of nobody?
Not me.
I punched in my info,
finger-approved the CC charge,
because I want this to be a huge success...
- the course looks cool
- they're feeding us something delish
- we get a chance to earn the State Champ sleeves
... gotta get that momentum going.
That's how events get huge,
and eventually start selling out the first day Reg opens.
Bike Reg has two cool data fields...
- Who's Registered - lets you see the competitors in your category
- Race Predictor - gives an idea on how we'll do
... I love that..
If we see a good chunk of humanity is signed up, it's exciting.
Whether Race Predictor thinks wer're gonna get clobbered or should crush it, there's always some way to find motivation there.
The moral of the story is...
... if you see a race you want to succeed, do something about it.
Oh, and if you're in the SoCalSoNev USACycling District...
... get signed up before it sells out!
