- Thread starter ianjenn
- Start date
would you happen to know results?
Sorry I had been on the hill since 7 am so split at 3:30 sharp!!!
Shaun Palmer?
No, not a big name. Semi Pro class won alot in early 2000. But smae era as Palmer!!!
Lancaster?
DAMN close one wisker off!!! He didn't make it out this year.
Beavers had the fastest time of the day racing the Pro/Semi class. Kendall-Weed won collegiate mens A's DH, and Baggs got 2nd. Thats all I remember.
You gotta remember Palmer's got tats.
Which PIC is you? I dont recognize screen names usually! A hint he was featured with Richard in the 2001 WTB catalog jumping the big 40' double up a Big Bear side by side?
I'll take a guess. Danny Minx?
HOLY .... so close but no same era, and group of riders!! He is very good friends with Richard!
Had a highly modded BAJA truck also.....
ben furbee, no worries i dont post on here that much =]
Yeah I figured maybe it was you! We have some good ones of you and you brother. Email me.
and ripped arms. I was looking at the bike.
dude....damn.....lancaster was a madman.....i remember him gap/doubling some insane 40 foot natural line at mount snow a thousand years ago when mick hannah and steve pete both got seriously injured trying....ironic thing was he looked like he wasn't trying, and had mad styleeee on it
Ben you are crappin me you don't know him? From over the hill. And yea that is the same bike. Another pic of u!
that dudes bike is hurting
That's Travis Robertson. He's been riding his WR450 a lot lately, but didn't go with Richard down to Baja to pre-run this weekend. It sure was rad to have him back at Parkfield, and he was pinned!
Such EPIC weather this weekend! Traction was at an all-time high, dust wasn't an issue, and no one drowned in the rain on Friday. Perfect! I'd say it's pretty much the best Parkfield in the history of evArs.
Here's the results:
I'll edit the footage this week and try to get it up on bicycleweed- stay tuned.

best parkfield ever
here are some of my pics, not the greatest, but pics 
I was blinded by Beaver's butt Saturday night. 
It poured Friday. I thought I would drown in my tent from the water seeped through the sides. Riding Friday was a bad idea. I couldn't even roll down the slalom hill because of mud in my fork and guide. I spent an hour cleaning it...
The DH course actually dried and was perfectly tacky.
The race should be a week long with 7 dh races.

I came down with the flu for the weekend 
But my girlfriend got to ride dual slalom for the first time ever and thought it was awesome as well as jump a pixie bike for the first time ever and think that was awsome.
I crawled out of my tent on sunday long enough to ride the DH with her, that course was butter! Awesome event.
Pat- nice meeting you for the first time. Sorry if I was a little short with ya, I think I still might have had like a 100* fever up at the start

Haha, it's cool! You killed me by 8s with a fever!
Good angle!
i hope there were solid intoxicated midnight runs with missing bikes in ditches. too bad i had to miss this one...
Haha your sig. is funny but true
I learned 360's at parkfield!it was an incredibly sick race. Im kinda dissapointed tho because me and like five oter kids werent on the start times and we had registered and every thing, they said ok jus go at the end and so we did and Im not even on the results neither are a few pros.
That's an awesome shot.
Cool video! Is that wydeopen (on here) that filmed the DH? That's some shakey filming forsure. Someone tell him that zooming in far when filming handheld doesn't help.
