Plattekill roll call
- Thread starter boogenman
- Start date
Hopefully this isn't too big a can of worms I'm opening, but, um.... why?
he's just fat and drunk.
In. Parking up top either with the drunks to the left or with the old men '518' crew to the right, depending on whether or not pterodactyl gets back to me!
Oh, I'll be there by the way. Friday night, probably after 9. But not at the parking lot.
Better reason than most.
I'm fat and drunk and I still race.
518 crew, hmmm . ya just gave me an idea.

You were using your Pinkbike ruler, weren't you?
He is in. From what I understand he is also staying at the house for some pyrotechnics fun
I am fat and drunk and have raced many times that way but that is not why I am not racing there anymore.
Poor timing equipment is why I am not racing there. 3 consecutive race runs at 2 back to back races with no time recorded was enough for me to throw in the towel. It sucks to go balls out on your race run to be told at the bottom that you need to go back up for a re run becasue the timing equipment failed.
I'm debating it. I have to fly to Europe Monday morning and it's a 6 hour drive back to montreal after the race Sunday.
I'm assuming you're flying from Montreal? You should do it!

I heard a rumor there may be an Evil bike or two there.
Com'n Transcend, you can pound a beer or two with viciousdher

Fras, I'll even provide you with a few decent beers to drink. I've heard you're not a fan of Labatt. Or Pabst.
wasn't viciosdher banned from RM?
just do it. the Delta House crew will show you how red blooded Americans drink.
just split after the Pro/Expert race....err i mean Pro/Cat 1 race
Kev-what time you getting there? cause Nolan and Bob arent getting there till 8ish. i should be there by 5:00 i think
Yup. I think its high time they bury the hatchet.
We are planning on leaving around noon so we should get there around 5 or 6
you can have your fancy beer. im sticking with the vodkavery poorly, and with cheap beer
cool, i think we'll be the first people there.
News Flash: Pterodactyl is out...has to fly to Toronto or some godforsaken place for work Sat morning....
I can't do labatt. I get a vicious (irony) headache. I like Pabst though. I also have to make sure I can get a license betwen now and 4pm today when the federation here closes.
The federation? wtf are you from, Star Trek?
Nolan the Delta House Racing head man sweats PBR.
I like the good beers but I drink so much at platty I need to drink blue to keep the cost down.
I just finished the last of a Dogfishhead IPA last night. That stuff is nice.
ill be there!
Wait a second, am I to interpret "make sure I can get a license" to mean a racing license? As in you would race???
FWIW, you can get one day licenses on site at Platty, but I'm not sure if you international cats are eligible for it.
can you also buy the yearly licence? least thats what i plan on doing...
Ya, if I go i'll race. Have to keep up my 4 race a year minimum. This way I'd have Plattekill, European championships, Canadian Championships and Bromont Canada cup. It's too bad I didn't race in Chile, I could have have Chilean championships too.
Ha!
Sweet merciful crap!
just do it...what category do you race in? Cat4?
