Ok VA type monkies, who's going?

The Frito Bandito and I will be making the pilgrimage if funds allow.
Any other members of Team Fat Kids going to make a showing?

Maybe a caravan up there, perhaps group camping/hoteling. Let me know.

It right off Interstate 83N.......last exit in MD before PA.
Probably 20 minutes north of Baltimore.

Team Fat Kids is almost a misgnomer. I am the only truly rotund member of the team, and I am back running six miles a day and lifting, so maybe by the next season I'll be down to less then Buddah stature.

I figured you'd want in. The details are coming together as we speak, but you've got the credentials to be one of the founding members of the team for the large.

Jeez...I live 45 minutes from there and work(as in right now) just off 83N and Shawan Road. Is there any drinking involved in this particular "-toberfest" because I frankly suck at dirt jumping/doubles and was seeking a weekend away from home.

RTF, yes, you can be the other "larger then life" member.
However, TFK is a race team, and part of the deal is you must make at least four races in the regular season.

people often say that a mountain biker's last words are "hey, watch this". I have a feeling that as the day wears on, some spectators' last words may be "do a backflip alread!"

FYI - Hereford is not the last exit off I-83 in Maryland, it's about 10 mile south of the state line. If heading North, take exit #27, turn right at the top of the ramp, proceed 100 yards and you're there, turn left into the cornfield parking lot. The dirt jump competition is invitation only event. Everyone is welcome to watch but only those invited to compete will be allowed to flail themselves off the 6' kickers. Any questions, please call Mike Hartlove - 410-984-7268

ian dont act like you've never dropped a couple ruphies in your own drink, when your home, feelin alittle lonely with the wifey out of town. unfortunately though you couldnt really prosicute your self, its common knowledge how much you enjoy handcuffs and beatings along with your self pleasurement.

i heard ya'll got like 10 inches of rain or something down there, nuts. hopefully those jumps firmed up and didnt just wash away. lemme know if you wanna head out tomorrow. i'll get back down there earlier maybe if you wanna head out there for a little while. i got some work to catch up with though so yeah cant go too late.

Right, you just have to bust my balls because I like to tie myself up in a tutu and try to work a hand loose for some self gratification. Like you've never done it. I know you long hairs, I know how you roll.

Since you've been to the house, this will make some sense. Imagine where you park normally at my place under 3 feet of water. It rocked!

If you want to head out tomorrow you're going to have to drive, my truck is in the shop for a few days after fijording the flood waters.

danggggg thats alot of water. i dunno when i'll get back tomorrow i'll give you a call when i'm takin off from here though. it all kinda depends what time i wake up tomorrow, which all kinda depends on how late i stay up, which as you mentioned, depends on how long it takes me to un tie my self, and my hair, and then get off after that...so it all comes down to how good my knots are tonight pretty much

it's like phone sex, on a forum, by yourself, in public. Odd. It's exihbitionist self pleasurement that at the same time makes all readers voyeurs. Dirty. I like it.

Camping - Hmmm. I guess you could try Camp Puhtok - That's three minutes from the venue - not sure how to go about getting a permit though. Plenty of fields and woods in the area - shouldn't be too hard to find a spot.

You have to find a place to host it first and then post a link. Try photobucket.com. It's free.

I concur with the sweetness, I did a couple of laps Saturday afternoon. I wish I knew a little better what I was doing. I've been riding the BMX track a lot lately. Compared to that I found this track to be kind of harsh (especially the rollers in the rhythm sections) and I found I really suck in tight berms. Even so it was a lot of fun. I look forward to trying to race and watching the fast people after I get eliminated in the first round.

I have a n00b dual question... After a shared straight section do you have to get back in your assigned lane when/if the track splits again? How does that work exactly?

Also, I spoke briefly with Mike Hartlove and asked him who was on the invite list for the DJ contest. He mentioned Jim DeChamp, Aaron Chase, Kyle Ebbit, and Jeff Lenosky and a few others. That should be quite a show.
