Hood #5!
- Thread starter hungryleprican
- Start date
Start.... START. Man, the public education system. I think I should get a rebate on my property taxes.
For those of you that want "Special" video in a certain place, PM me soon. I do belive my brother will be videoing again. I know if you slip him a $5 spot, to help pay for his lift pass and video equipment, he would help you out. I think he would also be willing to do the editing for you, since he has nothing else to do. He also has 2 digital cameras.
I got a 5-spot! Unfortunately, I won't be able to make it. Dirt demo @ Bootleg Canyon awaits me on Mon/Tues!!!
Looking forward to the '08 series where my goal will be to put down a race run w/o crashing, flatting or both!!!

Kyle,
I might go to drink all the beer and take a few pictures. 
i was up there sat. morning and was hitting the fern gap i think its called the jump right after the really big one at the bottom. i pre loaded and my rear wheel drifted um the lip i landed sideways/ 5050 on the landing. got sent over the bars landed on my back broke the plastic and metal honey comb in my back plate and broke the chin strap on my helmet. i think i may agree with jerry its the stupid new coves fault... canadian peace of crap haha.
pretty pissed i go in thurs. for them to shoot me up with some radioactive juice so i glow in the dark (bone scan). what did you do to your wrist nick?
aka geese?
wish i could make it, but the bike is still all jacked up from #4 though.
yes mongeese, my mistake
oh i love those.
nobody mentioned penis ray
This is gonna be my first race out at hood. i'm a East coast guy (mt. Snow, and Platty mostly) and i'm visiting friends out in Portland and saw this on the schedule. Recommendations for tire selection High Roller? Minion? Timberwolf? Vids loo kinda loose.
minion front- high roller back or minion both front and back
Good cause i already have Minion F and higroller R on my bike and they are packed in my hard case right now! Do they have an open class there or is it semi pro/ pro class?
They run beginner/sport and expert/semi/pro. Good times...just raced there for the first time at the last race. Was flirting with the idea of going to this one, but between leaving for Interbike Mon/am and also having my machine down at the moment, I guess I'll opt out.
Have fun!!!
Have fun!!!
its a norba sanctioned race so the only way you can race semi pro or pro is if you have enough norba pointage.
the first half of the course is pretty dry/loose/rocky. the second half is in the trees and is usually pretty tacky or even muddy sometimes.
I just found out that the two beds in my room are already bunked on top each other when we get their. i might be getting a balcony though. not sure if i wanna keep my bikes out on a a balcony though.
Dang! Toot Ricky! Why'd you go and break yourself too?
Too many injuries. But at least it's the end of the season.
I'll be there this weekend, coming in behind the first place sandbaging smurff most likely... Douchebag!
Sounds Like New Zealand ripper Sam Reed's gonna show up as well!
Mark or Gregg if you are filming i can help out.
