Online registration closes Thurs @ midnight
That's right forest friends, there's less than 7 calendar days until the absolute dirt church that is XFondo Whistler rolls around for Season 4 on Sat June 14.
Not only that, but we've got a jam-packed Friday afternoon/evening session lined up for you including: Bici / Ruckus shakeout rides, RMU happy hour, package pickup and maybe even a course briefing from Yogi himself.
NOT ONLY THAT, but registration is about to close!
The door slams shut this coming Thursday at midnight - don't you dare find yourself missing out.
Guess what. Taking part in XFondo is like being a part of a big, dirty, sweaty family, only this time you actually can stand the sight of each other.
You'll learn that every rider treats their fellow competitor and volunteer with support, encouragement, and whelps of delight that google translate would only know as [OVEREXCITED ADULT ON BIKE]. And in addition, you've got all these guys supporting your side...
7mesh β Gear so good itβs like cheating
BICI β Where being a shopaholic is encouraged / rewarded
Red Truck Beer β Timeless post-ride cold ones
Forecast Coffee β Pre-ride rocket fuel
Blackcomb Springs Suites β Where to crash
Hornby Organic - Nom nom calorie support
Arbutus Routes β Tech support + local love
ABUS β Lock up your rig & no dings for your loaf
Blonyx β Electro fuel for the suffer
Hummzies - bringing a hella-good snack game
Dilawri - Them sweet offroady vehicles ferrying you
Celsius - A little taste of namaste in your energy drink
Pure Maple Water - Because the True North, people
Red Crown - Pomegranate juice will change your life (not financial advice)
What is the mystery climb? Itβs the opposite way from where you should go.
Somewhere on course, youβll have the option to take on an additional 500m (distance!) climb, purely for the hell of it. Itβs not timed or even an official part of the course - perfect for those with a screw or four loose.
But - there ~might~ be some prizing involved for those who opt for the punishment regardless...
Dope work by Matt Bearne who skillfully manifested the fates of destiny and saw his name drawn from out the hat to win a full 7mesh gravel kit makeover!
Said Matt: "Is this a scam?" and also "thanks again 7mesh!". For once no, and on behalf of they, you're welcome sir.
This is the sort of fun we get up to XFondo Whistler. You should join us.
"Listen up!" *hicCUp~. "XFondo signup is about to close, and you can either spend next Saturday friggin' SENDING back a shotski like a mighty marmot, or tapering your ass on the couch like Yogi after a baby walk 'cuz he's "tirrrred".
"As me cool aunt Squirrel Sessie says, life is for memories and chasing elevation young buck: the rest takes care of itself".
XFondo Whistler: June 14. You know what to do.
