hi
does any one mind giving me a ride down there if you are making it a day trip (i can be picked up early at any metro stop in N. V.A.) I want to get some downhill practice in. sorry just figured i'd give er a try(I know its a long shot-but I can pay in food)

Right now the area is under a flash flood warning, not good news for the riding bunch.
do we think it drains off pretty well, or is it going to be surf and turf up there? Much as I like riding in the mud, I am in no mood to change tires and all of that.

Just a note: Lifts only run on Saturdays in Sept and Oct (excluding this coming holiday weekend). No more lifts after Oct.
I don't feel so bad about having to bail now. I just can't afford the drive up and other associated spending.
I'm saving up for Wisp

you're sponsors want you up there. they don't want you crying about mud. you're sponsors give you tires to change and use and all that.
I just got an email from my brother in law, he and his wife want to go up this weekend. I was sort of hoping not to go because of labor day weekend traffic and weather but now I might end up there anyway due to family obligations. Weather for Charlottesville has it clearing up by Saturday but it looks like a deluge between now and then.
So anyway if any of you Richmonkies / Charlottevillans want to play it by ear and think they might show up Saturday or Sunday, let me know via this post or PM. Thanks.

Do I know you? I promise you if I did that you wouldn't be running your mouth.
All I know is that its raining hard here at the beach, and we're not even directly on the path of this thing. We're supposed to get ten inches out of this thing, which in and of its self is going to keep me here moving things from my garage up stairs.
One of these years i am goign to get smart and move the hell out of hurricane country.

Well we're gonna bite the bullit and go up sunday anyways. How does this place drain ? Do I need to wear my goloshes 
?
?
I'd bring googles.
It looks like it drains good but I bet all of the wooden stunts will be slick.
Have fun and let us know how it is.

Well the weather has changed for the better, it looks like it stopped raining around 6 this morning and has all day to dry up for tomorrow. Should be okay I hope.
today was a good day to run errands and get stuff done around the apt. 
tomorrow, a few of us will be hitting up the shed and then off for a day trip to diablo on monday!

I have the joy of working on our house and doing the power washing thing...
Well I will be at wintergreen tomorrow, if anyother monkeys are gonna be up there look for me in a tan and red thor jersey.
Well I'll be up there by myself too, what are you gonna be riding/wearing ?
skip wintergreen and hit up diablo on monday... you won't regret it!!!
Today was a freakin blast. Hit my shoulder on a tree earlier in the day, and other than that just a couple of bails with no carnage. I met up with jake and we did a couple runs until his dampening rod decided to break. Trail conditions were pretty good, some of the wood stuff was pretty slick as well as the rock.
