You'll be Hungry for the Podium this weekend!
REMINDER: Your race issued KHS Number Plate will be used for the entire Eastern States Cup Serties at Mount Snow and Plattekill. It's made of heavy duty plastic and will help us with scoring as you'll have the same number thru the series. If you forget or lose it, you'll have to buy a new one for $5.
New ramps and timing is awesome!
You can never trust a weatherman, especially when it comes to Plattekill. Fingers crossed
Ring ring ring, ring ring ring ring.......
Haha. Awesome. We have some snazzy astro turf as well. Been thinking about breaking out the putters sometime soon...Make sure you don't forget the grass roll for the pits!
Race Fee’s:
On site Fee’s are $5 more, save and Pre Register at: http://www.bikereg.com/events/regist...?eventid=10876
I really hope the Pre Reg guys do get to walk right thru cause - I just Pre Reg'D and for 2of us the Bike Reg fee was 9.95. I'm not complaining about the money, but i get tired of preregistering only to get to the race and find out I have to go thru and fill in all the paper work anyway.

I'm not a fan of Pre Reg generally either. But at Platty rest assured, just print your waiver and reciept. Bring that and your lic. upstairs, bypassing the payment line and get your lift pass and number. Then just "shut up and ride".
just don't get it wet, it can make funny sounds if you do so.
Yes Sir!
just registered.
Just registered and sprung for the "Pasta Dinner". No idea on the details of that but for $10... I'm in.
i have my receipt but where do you get a waiver? that would be great to not have to wait in line...thanks...

it packed down to about another 6". I brought the takeoff out a little bit too. The tree that kinda leans over right where the jump is will be taken out in time for the weekend.damn! another 12" added to the lip?
Are you hitting that voodoo?
its nice. haul mail around that corner and its a scrub to tranny.
We all know how much you like trannies. You made it waaayy to easy....
you 3 slow pokes actually gonna hit this jump? cause ive never seen any of you hit it before
Mad March Racing and NEMA are sponsoring a few fun competitions, Saturday at 5:30 near the deck. Great prizes including Answer Handlebars, gloves, DH tubes, maybe a wheelset and a portable electric pressure washer to the winners.
Also at the same time will be the mandatory riders meeting, pasta dinner and keg party on the deck and in the lodge. We'll be showing some first run movies on the big screen as well.

Who hit dred nought(sp?) first? hmmmm?
And why are you dragging the third guy into this? Do you know how much a hip replacement is these days? $$$$$
hmm i seem to have forgotten about that.
the question still stands for the other two
neal, jon and you.3
george, are you printing out schedules for the racers to give out during sign-up?
I hit it this past weekend. where were you?hmm i seem to have forgotten about that.

After Neal's near death experience last fall I think he should avoid this jump.
Not sure about Jon.
I will hit that $hit Friday, I am leaving at 5am friday to ride for the day. Not being hungover/drunk friday from the night before makes a world of difference in my riding.
The weather is looking pretty good for the week and weekend. Hope the rains holds off for the fun and games Saturday evening at the mountain. This is going to have a huge positive impact for platty on a big scale.

we are talking about the jump at the top of the mountain on the triple side......
I hit it this past weekend. where were you?
i was riding both days here in the ghetto
nah, neal almost died on the road gap jump last year. big guy thought he was Bender and sent that jump.
friday's weather looks good. sat/sun is iffy.
I believe so, there will be plenty of signage including at the lifts, That I do know.
Geoff Ulmer, right after the last nail went in. Dread Naught
Yes, Saturday Night should be fun. Drafts on the deck while watching goofballs compete for prizes will be fun. Although I'd like to win the pressure washer myself,it plugs into an auto cig lighter.

Hey is the Cat two course the one that goes under/over to the double chair, or is that the cat 3 course? Your earlier map suggested cat 2 goes way to the rider's right and cat 3 went straight down...the one above suggests the cat 2 course follows the other trail that splits the two lifts down the middle.
The cat 2 and cat 3 courses were reversed on the first map. This one is correct. The Cat2 course is pretty challenging, especially the last 1/4..
That was a race course some time ago, correct? Launch to double to LH berm then a shot into the woods and a very tech steep rocky rooty brake burner section, correct?
thanks for the reply, just trying to clarify in my noggin.

wow pro/cat1 course is only a mile? seems a lot longer
If we have a quick access release card for Platty, can we use that in its place, or does it have to be the USAC release form?
Cat 2 course is fun - essentially the '08 GES race course minus a part or 2.
i believe you still need the USAC form since that card is only for Platty's release waiver
so i need a platty release and a USAC release?
so many papers!!!
so many papers!!!
We'll be having a free showing of: "Allout" from alloutproductions on the big screen as well.
