2009 Windrock Festival
- Thread starter profro
- Start date
It does but the jump itself if on a slight left hand turn. I haven't hit either but I would definitely say the new one would be harder.
Ha ha - I was actually thinking about it this morning. I dunno...Until this Weekend!
Send it Podium boy!
Are you coming out?
I have already told you many times.
I like women.
Ha, yep, I will be there with bells on Sunday morning.
Yeah, I got only one day to get out and it looks like sunday will have better riding conditions.
Any set time the shuttle will be running til on Sunday? Sometimes if you only
show up on Sunday everyone is worn out from Sat. and shut down early.
Will Sat. be the longer day for shuttles?

We will get the suttle going as soon as ther are folks ready to shuttle.
Good time at the rock fellas. Look forward to getting there again soon. How much does a season pass go for? Cause I'm gonna need it.
Had great time. Thanks for all the work.
A few shots from today...
The trademark Webb sniper shot!
1st one is sweet for obvious reasons.

Had a great time this weekend guys! thank to everyone for great work on the trails and putting the vent together. I'll be drinking a beer tonight from my cane creek pint glass that should have been a double barrel...
Anyone heading down over thanksgiving? I know it is a month away but after this weekend I'm so psyched to get down there again. Thanksgiving is probably the next time I'll be in TN though. If anyone else is going to be there around TG let me know, I'd gladly throw down some cash to get in on some shuttle runs.

Haha, thanks for passing the news on to us though.
We ended up taking a two lane road for 60 miles going through Cherokee land and through Hot Springs to get back to Asheville. I'm sure it was a lot better than the 100 mile detour that was I-81 to I 26
Yep, we were going to soldier on, because I knew the way from Maggie Valley where 40 was closed, but my passenger who just thought he had a case of butt pee realized he had a full on stomach bug right before we got on the parkway in Cherokee. That road is bad enough as is, much less with him being sick. So I turned around.Haha, thanks for passing the news on to us though.
So, we pretty much pulled out our senior citizens cards and took a damn leaf tour today.
Yeah, pullin' out the grampa card myself. Headed to the doc now to find out what damage the wrist, arm took in that freaky crash I took 1st run down Windmill trail.
I think it's fractured or just wrenched. Think slammin your wrist in car door.
The sweelling had gone down a good bit wit the ice and the left handed manual drive home, which was fun! So I decided to skip the overnight wait at the ER.
I hit a rock with the front wheel which blew my hand off, then when I crashed tat said arm somehow fell between the triple clamp and frame creating an arm bar, ouch it hurt really bad at first! Thanks to the guys for helping me down the hill! Got out of that
death whole off the side of the trail just before Peter did a face plant in the same spot.
anyway this took me like 5 mins to type so you guys won't have to hear my whining
for a while, guess i need yo lern shrt hnd lik all these texting kids do these days

Huge thanks to all that showed up. The conditions on Saturday weren't ideal, but better than last year's snow and mud. However Sunday's conditions were as good as it gets. The dirt was velcro and the temperature was perfect.
I would like to thanks the sponsors for all the raffle prizes:
-Cane Creek
-Industry Nine
-Specialized Tires
-e13
-Sicklines
-Morewood
Also another thanks to the Windrock Crew and others for helping get the trails in shape:
-Terry, Mark, Brain P, Brian H, Jay, Jeff H, Eric, Thomas, Brian N, Joey, Ben, Kenan, Karl, and Geritt (I hope I don't forget anyone)
Thanks to all the riders for coming and making this a great event. The burgers, beverages, and grill was a great idea and I hope a new staple to the event.
Also a huge thanks to Brian and Josh for loaning us the vehicles to shuttle with. For an event with no entry fee (other than the land owner permit) I think its a good value.

Yep, we have plans to be riding. Bring your burly trail bike as well. If its too wet to ride the DH trails, we have a few other long shuttles we can do on trail bikes that we can ride in bad conditions. But these aren't sissy trail bike shuttles. These are burly and long.
I only took one picture this weekend:
That hat is a stripper magnet. It has special powers.
I thought that stache was the stripper magnet

Thanks for putting it on. Great MX ride on Friday and DH on Saturday. (BTW: the MX trails are way harder than any of the DH trails). I bailed Sunday morning after feeling like crap all day Saturday. Still not feeling good.
I really wish I had footage of the quadtard at the top of the windmill trail. Anyone know the outcome of his over agressive driving?

Nice footage!
Hey us Chicago guys couldn't have asked for a better time. I have never been in so much pain and had so much fun at the same time. Well be back again soon.
