As far as I know it is open and not to just the residents of the subdivision. My co-worker doesn't live there and he raced this year. I am waiting for the video! The place is just east of Harrisonburg, off of route 33 at Crossroads Farms Subdivision.
As far as being too old, I'm there and I don't heal like I used to and broken bones are not something I look forward to. It would be just my luck to break something. However, most people come away with bruises and scrapes from the pavement. Did I mention I don't heal like I used to? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" /> Even my wife thinks I should not even think about doing this, but I am tempted to try it just once!
