    Philadelphia DH

    We'll be visiting Philadelphia, PA this weekend and was wondering where we could find the closest lift-accessed or DH-friendly riding. Blue Mountain is closed, so that's out I suppose (anyone had luck shuttling their trails?). We're based out of Richmond, VA so Seven Springs is about equidistant...

    gran turismo 5 in 2007 !

    Hah! I'm still on GT4 for my PS2, but that wheel makes it a WHOLE NEW GAME! Can't spend the cash for a PS3, especially after buying the PS2 just to play GT4

    saint brake issues...

    UPDATE: I've ridden on the warrantied levers and fresh bleed for two weekends with great results. Not sure if it was the lever or a "non-super-intense" bleed, but they seem to be working fine now.

    saint brake issues...

    I agree, that's an altogether different problem. I got my replacement levers yesterday and spent two hours METICULOUSLY bleeding. This morning I opened the reservoirs to get out any small bubbles (as suggested in the tech manual) and am going to do the same before I leave work today (I work...

    saint brake issues...

    Just last week I decided to finally give up and call Shimano. I've bled and re-bled (for two seasons), and usually just pumped my levers before each ride to build up pressure for a run, but thought that "enough was enough." They denied really having knowledge of this problem but offered to...

    Yeah, I realized who I'd been laughing with all weekend in the shuttle bus when you passed the finish line and they announced your name. DUH!

    2010 on the SWEET BUS

    We may be bringing it anyway. This weekend (DirtyBird) sparked some interest in three of our buds. They said they might want to come along to ride next weekend. We'll see how it pans out, but I figure we'll take the bus if there's five or more of us. Is the shuttle all paved? If not, how...

    Ride sharing.....(or hook ups)

    I'll be heading to Plattekill for the 3rd stop of the Gravity East Series on either the night of the July 1st (Thursday) or sometime on the 2nd (Friday). I should have a few open spots on my bus if anyone wants to carpool. I will be leaving from Richmond, VA and could pick up riders between...

    2010 on the SWEET BUS

    there's ALWAYS room on the bus. Just hit me up close to that time to let me know the specifics of where/when to pick you up. Also, send me a PM with your "real" name and number. I'll give you a call if somehow all the space is called for already.

    2010 on the SWEET BUS

    Not sure what they'll have in 2010, but in 2009 some guys put some serious work into the area to make the inaugural race course. I assume they've kept at it and perhaps a few more trails have been built. I haven't ridden there yet, but all I've heard has been real positive.

    2010 on the SWEET BUS

    F Yeah! I have been eyeing some good ones for the "partyer" (as opposed to the rider/racer). US Open at Diablo Windham UCI World Cup ALL of the Dirtybird and Timberline trips!

    4X at the Pro GRT (and elsewhere)

    So I noticed that there was some general 4X bashing in response to Dylan Dean's post about next year's Pro GRT. I've never raced at a GRT stop, nor a 4X race, but am looking forward to trying both next year. I also have a few BMX buds that are dying to try it out next season. My question is...

    Jamis Bam or Giant Glory?

    Definitely the Glory - I think that's been unanimous.
