Back in March XXC reported that race director Mark Schooley was planning on saving the shattered remains of the 24 Hours of Big Bear with a the Big Bear 4 x 24 race. A four lap race of 24 miles each with solos, duos and sport class 4 person teams. Well after some thinkin' and head scratchin' the format has been changed to The Big Bear 2 x 12 on Saturday, June 12, 2010 @ 10:00 a.m. at Big Bear Lake Camplands in W.V..

AND REGISTRATION FORMS.

By the way, if you are feeling spanky, and don't mind paying $150, I have a pretty good feeling no one would say anything if you registered as a Duo and raced Solo. In 1996 John Stamstad completed the first Solo attempt of the 24 Hours of Canaan by using four variations of his name to register. Just sayin'.

GOOD LUCK!
