Rode the course last night. Gotta admit that it's challenging to stay on trail in the dark. I shoulda brought lights! :eek: . . . (just kidding)
Actually, I was frying shadows with an HID and still noticed problem areas. Even had problems on sections of Miracle Mile, as well as on the new trails. There's a lot of new growth obscuring sight lines.
I sent Kathy a report, and she is planning to put out more white ribbons on trees, especially at turns, so the ribbon will catch your eye to the direction you need to go.
As a course marshall I'll likely take a day lap and night lap, and will bring a roll of white tape with me to mark anything that doesn't seem obvious enough.
Things are shaping up for a fine event!
