24hrs of Summer Solstice - Let's get some teams together

[Robanz]

Epic 8 is pretty fun solo.  I recommend it, I might even do it again this year!

As for the 24 hours, I am still up for 4 to 10 person team if we get the people.

Hey, I don't think I'll be able to make it for the 24, but the epic 8 sounds good, as its earlier in the season.  I'm good for either solo or tag team for that one.

I think that I am pretty set on solo for the epic 8 (the epic part would make us all hardcore), but it would be awesome to get some people to convoy down with. I should have access to a car but I will have to check and see how many bikes I can get on it.

I've done a 5-person in the past, and I'm not up for doing it again. I'd only be interested if someone was putting together an 8 person team. Last time I was on a 5-person team I had back spasms.

Last time I was on a five man team, I got hypoglycemic on a climb, saw a bunch of yellow spots and crashed into a tree on my 5th lap. Luckily Adi lent me a gel which got me to the finish or I probably would have passed out in the middle of the trail.

6-10 man is way more chill as you can take the time to socialize, watch the concert, and visit other campsites. 4-5 man team is rough because all you do is eat, race, eat, eat, eat, race, etc.

I'm racing with my shop Oakville Cycle and Sports again this year. U of T riders drop by for free bike tuning, we'll have 4+ mechs on hand and new for this year: an MD.

So what is happening here? Are we coming up with a team or not?
