FPSI Blue Line Dirty 10.20.30 preview

NOTE: 28 March 2010 event day gallery here. Some snaps from the saddle during our 16 Feb 2010 ride around the Florida Public Safety Institute property. Entrance to FPSI (formerly Pat Thomas Law Enforcement Law Enforcement Academy) is on US90 directly across from East Gadsden High School. This is ~6M west of I-10 Exit 192. 'Twas an early scouting 4 wheeler ride for the 28 March 2010 Blue Line Dirty 30, courtesy of TPD and FWC.. Facebook event page. Active.com event registration link. If you register online, I'd bring a printed registration receipt. Friday, 26 March note: Got an invite back over to the course today. I've posted another video and a few more photos. Look for a potential news report on WCTV (CBS Channel 6) re the event...and here 'tis. Dirty Thirty weather note for event day: Don't let threat of rain keep you from registering and coming out. As of Saturday afternoon, the Sunday morning forecast looks dry. Little chance of precip till after 1pm. We had so much fun on this course even with sloppy conditions in some areas. It shouldn't be a concern. "Official" GPS track here. My GPS track and follow along player from a 21 March course pre-ride. NOTE: I had a ~1Km total out-and-back error during lap one of my pre-ride. It's near I-10 in the lower right loop, bisecting that loop, and shaped like a "7." I correctly rode the southern section during this 26 March ride. Course may have a bit of distance added to the ~8M loop we rode before the 8am, 28 March 2010 ride day. Helmetcam VIDEO compilation here and here, from the saddle of Wednesday, my trusty rigid 29er singlespeed. This course is a ton of fun! Lots of hiking trail feel to much of the singletrack. Congratulations to the trail blazers for a job well done. A mix of some double track with a very healthy dose of beautiful singletrack. Two sandy bottomed creek crossings (4X per lap) had me more excited each time on my two 21 March course laps. Sign up and do it. Course will only be open once per year - during this event. attention roadies: your event begins at FPSI as well. the rest of your info is here. that is all...
