    Bike shops in the area

    I would recommend Billy goat as well. Another place to look is Magic Cycles at Beech mountain. They have a rental fleet of glories and trances.

    Hey T-roy how should we go about paying the season pass? Just call Ashley or go through you. I've got to head that way soon for work, we will have to ride.

    Windrock Temporarily Closed- Severe weather damage

    I'm hoping to be able to make it. I'll let you know as it gets closer to the 4th. I haven't been out to WR yet. I'm planning on coming to the race in Sept, so it would be awesome to help get the trails ready as well as scope the them out on foot. Plus maybe a little riding.

    Beech Mtn Resort 2013 - Park and Race Info Thread

    Butch, All My Love is a green that starts at the top and goes down to the paved road. Then take the paved road down til you pass both AM and Pro courses and take Whole Lotta Love to the the bottom. I haven't ridden either but that is where I see all of the casual riders/kids going after...

    Beech Mtn Resort 2013 - Park and Race Info Thread

    I'm be up this weekend as well. 0110 I sent you a PM. I'm bringing the children (too young to ride yet), so I'll be up there whenever I can con my family into watching them. Probably Friday afternoon and definitely Sat (maybe Sun if I don't sleep in). I'm on a grey canfield jedi with orange...

    Beech Mtn Resort 2013 - Park and Race Info Thread

    I was actually surprised at the number of non-downhill riders that were at the last race/ride day this past year. Quite a few cheaper (maybe even walmart) bikes out there and families riding the beginner trail. Not sure if these people were locals or family of the racers, but it was still a...

    Beech Mtn Resort 2013 - Park and Race Info Thread

    I was thinking about heading up for just friday (planning on being there again next weekend), but then I saw they open at noon. I was hoping they opened earlier, but I still might go. I'm in Raleigh. I also need to get my bike together ('11 jedi), the last of the parts come today so it...

    ETSU Race - Sorry for the short notice

    hmm, interesting. How long does the DH race usually last since it is the best of two runs? Was thinking of backpacking on Sat. night and I'm pretty sure I could be back in Asheville and on trail by 6:30ish. Any recent videos of the course, or has not much changed from the race last year (I...

    Bike Park in Hendersonville, NC breaking ground Tuesday???

    I went out there today to check it out and help out. They are pretty close to being ready to open. Here are a few pics I snapped on my phone. Pretty sweet pump track. There is also a smaller track for the childrens. Phase II will be adding a skills area and Phase III will be a rework of the...

    Potential Downhill Bike Park in Southeast?

    Big Foot, you chilled with us down at the picnic table by the office after your bike broke right? If so, I remember you too. I brought my recently broken derailleur for parts, but the cage was what was trashed on it as well. Plus it was sram and IIRC yours was shimano?

    Shuttle a State Park....

    lol, no just out of shape, so I was slowly walking up the hike a bikes and stopping every 10 ft. That allowed me to use my minds eye to its full advantage ;) I loved the headstone at the top of the 2nd or 3rd push up, out on the rock. "The best hunter there ever was". I like their style, that...

    Beech Mtn Resort 2013 - Park and Race Info Thread

    Yup! That is 3 Sat/Sun sessions and one Friday thrown in. Hopefully they will sell beer at the lodge, that should really help the bottom line. Yeah I'm sure too, I was thinking probably double that at least. But with the bike shop, concessions, etc I hope it works out and makes them some...

    Beech Mtn Resort 2013 - Park and Race Info Thread

    Kick ass. If they really do open every weekend from June 7 through Sept. 29, let us show them they can make some cash by doing so. I wonder what their break even point is for any given day? Looked like around 6 people on the lift at the races (3 top/3 bottom). Add a few more for tickets and...

    Shuttle a State Park....

    I rode the trail on Sat. It was awesome and like bizutch said, unlike other trails in the area. It kind of reminds me of Wayehutta atv trails in Cullowhee. Wayehutta is not nearly as rocky, but speeds are close to the same and it is all doubletrack. Wayehutta can also be shuttled if you know...

    Wireless router recommendations?

    As syadasti said above, dd-wrt will give you options/features you usually only find on more expensive routers. Basically routers these days have around the same capability hardware-wise (usb ports, printer hookup, etc withstanding), the manufacturers limit the features at the software level to...

    Wireless router recommendations?

    Any router that is supported by dd-wrt (although there are some that offer more features through ddwrt, just checkout the forums over there). Then install dd-wrt and have a much better router.
