Get Ready!!!!!!!!the Groovy Gravity Games has changed to the CHDH .Same place same area just a new fresh crew.
For 06 team wrong way has passed the torch to myself a few other diehard
moutain bikers. We want to make this next race better than ever.Hopefully it wont rain on us this time. Even though it was a ton of fun to watch people slidiing down the G-out on there backs!For the past 5 years its been a Great race and every year it gets better so this year we'll have More Jumps ,More Venders , More Swag,Bigger sound system,
DJs ,Monster Energy drinks "hopefully",T-shirts,photographers, Maybe a $100 freeway section contest for the fastest rider threw that section ,More practice etc......
.I'm going to build some stunts like the ones that were at the sea otter classic too .Also thinking about a wooden vert wall burm thing.Web site in the works for online registration/info/pics.
Since OLN said last year we couldn't use the words "gravity games "
We've come up with a new name CHDH ,Corral Hollow Downhill "info on the name below"
Team Wrong way is not holding the race in 06 but a few of there members are going to help out.The date I have for the race is March 25-26th,thats 2 weeks before the sea otter. We'll also have a back up rain day/race the following weekend if it rains again.I think it will be the 1st nor-cal DH race of the year.
Phil Segura, ridesfo.com/ Eric Sterner , Gravity skills /Tao Dillworth, Alloutprodux.com/and my self Blake Von Knopka , Wrench Science.com & a ton of Great Bay-Area riders will be in charge of the race .
You can go to teamwrongway.com & alloutprodux.com to see video of last years mud fest.I'll be posting more info when we get closer to March.
Hope to see yah there!
Thankx

yea i will go if its not supposed to be ****in like last year

that blew sooooo much
Hehe, that's why we went up and did some course work the weekend before the race. Got to ride all the stuff before anyone else!

Meh, the rain was a bit of a downer at first, but after awhile you figure might as well join em and enjoy it for what it is - a really fun, great local vibe event that's more about the social aspect than the actual race.

I'll be up there again for sure!

CAn you register that at the race, or is it a pre registration thingy?
There is late registration on Saturday. Its $45, that $10 more over pre-reg costs unless we are sold out. We will allow up to 300 racers. We are at 167 and its starting to pick up.
