If you're like us, you've probably caught yourself reminiscing about the simple joys of summer in recent weeks. Like walking out the front door without having to gear up as though for an Arctic expedition. Or a sunset seen first-hand rather than from the window at work. Or short sleeves and sandals. How about a beer on a dock, a BBQ on a deck, or a warm breeze on your face? Summer's a pretty sweet deal...
Summer will come eventually though, and with it comes our favourite weekend of the year! RockstAR 2018 takes place on
Saturday July 21st, and we've been busy putting together the pieces for another epic day of adventure at Bark Lake. Highlights of this year's course design include:
- a return of the "do-what-you-want-when-you-want" format we introduced last year, in where teams can attempt checkpoints by way of whichever discipline they choose
- an all-new new prologue course for the 8-hour race
- new and improved task-based checkpoints, and the return of some old favourites (HINT - we'll be taking the "beer or root beer" CP to a whole new level!)
- some re-tooling of our traditional water-based CPs
- a racecourse made up of 28 all-new checkpoints (20 for the 4-hour course), which will provide more options for biking!
Registration is open at
www.racetherockstar.com, with early entry discounts in effect until April 30th. Bring summer a little bit closer and sign your team up today!
