I can't wait and I am not even riding. Leaving tomorrow after work. Look for the only guy wearing a neck brace (not a Leatt.... a medical brace) that isn't riding and say hi. :D I will be shooting pics on both courses all weekend and will post up when I get them done.

Edit: Not a cheap shot at you...just made me think of this scene, which is hilarious.

Come on it's 5 bucks. I think if you are coming to Beech you can handle supporting the resort and their efforts with 5 dollars. See you there.

somewhere really ****ty
I would be all for it if I actually had 5 dollars. Normally I would have plenty of extra financial aid money left to spend but thankfully NC decided to cut that:weee:
Now I'll just have to listen to my mom grumble about random extra fees:rant:

There are some people on the fence about racing this event that I know. I really hope that you will spend the bucks to register and help Beech Mtn. in their efforts not only for this event but, for the coming years. Herndon and crew have put a lot of work in to make it challenging but, fun. Please support it while the opportunity is present! We are really lucky to have Beech Mtn. putting it's neck out and spending what is probably a fortune on making this even happen. If you want the SE to grow with Gravity riding put your money where your mouth is and support the race! God knows we all spend enough money on BS for our bikes and looking pretty on our bikes! Besides, if you are afraid of a little mud then what kind of mtn. biker are you anyway?

I cant believe some are on the fence about this. It's the Natl champs in our backyard at the best hill we have. I wish I could go to watch since I can't race it. I had to spend all my money for school too, and was in the dumps for about a week when I found out the weekend before the qualie I couldn' t go.
I just hope that the powers that be are so impressed they have it here in another year or two.
Go race and dominate!

Boosh! Pro track is awesome. If anyone was hanging out in the rock garden today, if you didn't see me go by an arse load of times, you probably heard me.

To those on the couch at home, you are missing a silly good course!

My roommate said the pro course was a little mellow for nationals.. I can't say anything though, I sat at home all day :p
