Just found out from Zac Tifosi did come through with 4 pairs. Glad to hear that Matt at Tifosi did come through. They are a great company!!!!!

Just giving you guys a hard time. I know it was your first race.
WE should have pics up this week as we are going to be working on it extensively.
It is FAST and fun all jumps are rollable some are techy some not.
is that all she told you...she left out a few things...
Saturday, 13th, both course will be shut down!
This coming weekend both course will be reciveing a large amount of trail maitenance.
So please watch out for workers and obstacles changing!
All this coupled with the lack of rain means you can ride the courses but please be careful and limit your time and runs.
We dont want the course to get blown out before the race!

Any chance there is a local mobile car washing service who'd donate their crew and pressure washer/truck/trailer to drive down the clay road and hose down anything you're going to be digging and re-shaping?
The wind may blow it away as dry as it's been.
I'm working on trying to get a water truck from the Agg department to come out there one day. It's just silly how dry it is.Any chance there is a local mobile car washing service who'd donate their crew and pressure washer/truck/trailer to drive down the clay road and hose down anything you're going to be digging and re-shaping?

Yes it will, but were asking that you limit your runs on the DS course until we can get it packed in. We are in desperate need of water.
enjoy

There is a football game this saturday aswell. So driving will be a nightmare. Consider your self warned!
I made that mistake a long time ago once.................once.
I'll be out there on Sunday doing some maintenance. You are welcome to ride then, just don't run me over.
Rode the both courses on Sunday. The DS course is super fast and fun. One of the best DS courses I have been on. Both DS and HD are very, very dry.... Drifting very easy right now!!!!!
ill be up 4 that if i can go. ill let u know asap...
I'll take my camera out on friday afternoon.
I think chris already took some.
Got more Schwag today! But we still need rain and timing...
You can ask Ski Beech's ski team how much they charge to do the timing for you.
Found an awesome photo somone snapped of the berms going off into the distance.
Can you guys make sure we can't straight line any of them this time?
Last time to race, it almost pained me to straight line some of them

nah that section is the same. Its set up so u can hit all of them if ur just out for some fun, but u can straight line during a race. Its sorta of the motto of the entire trail.
Also, we have big plans for winter, possibly a three race series and the addition of a new DH course!

Rock on wit ya bad self !
mmmmmm its raining
Straight line it for the Race, but when you're just riding it's much more fun to rail them. I hope Herndon comes so I can try to tail him during practice through that section.Found an awesome photo somone snapped of the berms going off into the distance.

Rain Rain I Love Rain!!!!!
Its all becuase matt did the nude rain dance in the parking lot. Thanks matt!
Stop posting pics of our trail when i cant ride, it hurts me so.

haha its funny because that fork did f*** me in the butt.
people should come to the race just to see what kind of shenanigans I'll get into this year.
Shenanigans? That's a pleasantly quaint way of say "Oblivious".
As for the turns...that's what racing is about....winning in the turns. None of us is going to win on a straight...but 4 berms in a row.
Come on. I REALLY need a reason to bang out those turns in a race run. Make them mandatory.
do you want me to add slalom gates in that section?
Gotta agree with butch- why build a bunch of sweet railers then just
blaze through the middle of them, which uses no technical skill unless there are jump lines on the straight through? \
I can see go arounds for the jump sections, but make us turn!!!
I never rode it so, I don't have the same perspective as someone who has.
Is it too fast to hit the turns when you on a race run? Why would you go straight anywhere you could turn? Ever???

DH Racing is about picking lines some of the berms are very useful and some not so much its up to you to decided which are.
translation: "i cant corner and dont want to lose time to those that can"
It's really easy. Just stand a pallet up on it's end in the straightaway and stake two 2x4's on the back to create a lean to that will make an excellent blockade.
