[NMCycling] XTERRA Glorieta (TRI the Torture)

[Brent Bonwell via Bike-racers]

 From the XTERRA Rule Book:
2. Bike:

2.1. Equipment: Only mountain bikes are legal for competition. Cyclo-cross
bikes are not allowed. No drop handlebars are allowed. No aero bars are
allowed. All bikes must have 26", 27.5" or 29" wheels. Bar extensions or
grips off the handlebars may not exceed five inches(5")
Any/all bar ends must be capped.

Besides, the bike course includes a really nice flow trail section and a 
run through their bike park that would be a waste to ride on a CX bike, 
but SOOOO much fun on a mtb.

Let me know if anyone out there needs team mate(s) for the race and 
we'll do our best to find a match for you.

In light of the prior emails about the Greater ABQ 1/2 marathon, just so 
you know:  The XTERRA Tri the Torture is being put on by the same 
dedicated group of volunteers that's been putting on the LTT since 
2006.  Here's more info about us <http://www.core-crew.com/about>.

It's going to be a LOT of fun.  Bring your family members and friends to 
cheer you on.  The water park and other activities will be open after 
the race so they can sample some of what the racers will be doing.

For out of towners there's lots of lodging options at the race venue; 
tent sites, RV hook ups, primitive cabins and hotel rooms.
