Some info for the race, web site will be updated this weekend.

The Reading Racing team is working hard to put together a great riding weekend.

Here is what is going down on Oct 1&2.
Sat Oct. 1st: Registration 8am-4pm
Practice: Is going to be broken up between the AM and Pros.
The reason for this is safety. We do not want people to get jumped on. We had to many close calls last year when some one would go for the big gap and a rider would hit smaller gap. So by splitting the two up riders of equal skill levels can rip the course without distraction.

10:00 am-12:00pm--PRO
12:00pm-2pm--AM
2:00pm--4:00 pm--PRO

hey rick -
this is Mo, I think I should be coming to the race if Kirk is going. Do you still have that rear G1 Mag goodridge line? I will probably buy it from you whenever I come to PA next. By the way, I went from the Fly to a Mono and now to a Shockwave 9.5 as my new bike.

AND A LITTLE BIT MORE!!!
I just got back 7:30 from working and riding all day on the Duryea Downhill course. I think this is the best course Fred and Dane have come up with. The new sections are so much fun. This course is fast period. The big Airlines jumps are not in yet, they will be built about 2 to 3 days before the event. We are trying to keep them safe from being trashed by the asshole. We did put in the new drop into city park. This drop is sweet. fred,pryde,jon,mattand dane were all going big. Take off to landing was around 30ft this drop has a endless tranny. There was big smiles all around. This was the biggest drop i did all summer because of my ankle injury and i think it is sweet . The section after this is where we are going to have a nice surprise for the riders, something we have been promising that we finally can deliver on.

I think you will see everybody from the team next week at the creek.
