Has anyone been to Ray's indoor bike park in Cleveland? What did you think? Is it worth a few hour drive for something to do on a winter weekend? Do you know of any other places like this? Preferably in New York.

I am looking forward to going to Ray's. I think that it will be a great time and also to test your skills!
i might get the chance to fly out there this summer. Does anyone know if there is a web site for that place or any pics of it?
it got a plug in mbuk this month
I went up this weekend with some friends, and I would say it's deffinitly worth it.
TONS of stuff to ride, more on the way. Ray told us that he's working on some sort of a deal with a local hotel type thing for weekend people, 40 bucks a night, rooms have kitchens and everything.
All of the trails in the park are directional, so you never run into issues with people getting in your way.
Go. It's a blast.

I was there yesterday for the third time. The place is great and totally worth a couple hour drive(2.5 for me). I might go again this weekend next weekend for sure.
It is great being able to hit box jumps with transitions designed for mountain bikes.
Here are some links to great pictures:

Awesome place!!! There are pics posted on dropmachine. Was there this past saturday and played in the newly added foam pit! Oh man! i want one of these in my living room!!!!!
Here's a pic of my buddy Bob who got 9th out of 27 in the amateur class of the most recent contest there. Check out the facial expression, he should have been bumped up to the podium for that alone!! 
yeah - it's pretty sweet. you get booted, land and there's no consequence! I need such a luxury!!!

Dude, how'd you get your eyes to glow like that?! Sweet Trick!
The ramp into the foam pit is just over 5' tall.
These pics really let you see the joys of a foam pit. Who cares how you land?
holy crap thats AWSOME!!!!
I am hitting the foam pit!
this weekend will be my 5th time at rays 1st with the foam pitt 
I talk with a guy that worked there and he said that the way things are going there could be a real good chance for summer hours!rpk1988 said:
Anyone know if you can rent bikes anywhere around there? I wanna check the place out, no place in my suitcase for a bike though.
They always have a fleet of demo bikes there(Giant, Mongoose, Cannondale) I would just call and see if you could reserve one.
