Wisp rollcall for the weekend
- Thread starter Tattooo
- Start date
I'm sketching out due to lack of funds and the Hobby Park DS race is less than half the distance for me.
is it a race this weekend ?
I like to keep my pair dry so I'll be there only if the rain holds off. I'll probably get there midday Saturday to ride and then race DH Sunday. Unfortunately I don't think I'll be able to make it in time to race DS. We'll be camping at Swallow Falls. Come hunt us down if'n ya feel like it.
where is hobby park... what is the course like?
I'll be there unless some **** goes down before friday. I'll be doing DH and ds. I'd do an xc if they were offering that too.
tattoo, just bring all the tires you own, I've always done that and it pays off sometimes. If you don't have the tire you need, I might be able to hook you up for a low fee.
I'm thinking that this would be a good race to get my feet wet in the expert class, so no one can call me a sandbagger in the ds again.

Winston-Salem NC. It's a very fun dual course. The first part is in the woods, then you pop out on a step down. And so on. Nothing huge or scary but a ton of fun. Last year they ran a DH bike class on the DS. That was probably more fun than racing in class. They do a jump contest after the race. It's a good time. If you're interested jump over to the south forum and check it out.
Please God not again. Riding behind you at Patapsco early this spring has left an indelible image burned into my brain.
go real fast, that way... if something gets in your way.... turn.
Thanks for the compliment, you must know me, I probably know who you are, just not by your s/n. a little help would be appreciated.well i'm sorry your pretty freaking fast

i ride for VT, blue Sinister DNA, I was at snowshoe race #3, and at one of the Wisp races.
Oh okay, it all makes sense now. I didn't see you out at bear creek, what gives?
it's 4+ hours away and I had to go out of town on saturday. Was it any good?
hopefully I can make it to Wisp this coming saturday
yeah it was good. The slolam course was really soggy, so they extended the gate section before the berms and the merge, and removed all the jumps after the merge. So it was a nice test of flat ground/ shallow rut turns, and pure pedaling strength.it's 4+ hours away and I had to go out of town on saturday. Was it any good?

The DH had some rough and tricky spots at the top, but after those it was basically an xc trail with lots of pedaling, ending in some fun chutes.
After bear creek, I'm totally pumped to ride at wisp, I can't wait for a fast lift......bear creek was so slow, that I spotted a spectator casually meander to the top of the hill before I made it there in my chair.
Don't case doubles.
Thanks man... That one, I learned the hard way.Don't case doubles.
A little six year old kid came along a few minutes after you left and did the same thing. I gotta say this for you... at least you didn't cry. Wimpy 6 year olds. Sheesh.Thanks man... That one, I learned the hard way.
I'm bailing. The weather looks like shiite (muslim leaders and the islamic jihad.)
Bummer. Anymore races anywhere nearby this year?
