Hello Everyone,

After a closer examination of our visit forecast for the month of January, we have made the decision to postpone the mountain bike race, rescheduling the date for Feb 10, 2008. We have rescheduled in order to move the bike race to a weekend where we are expecting lower resort visitation. The bike race is a popular event but does add pressure on a number of on and off mountain departments; with this in mind we have chosen a date with lower expected visitation in order to minimize the impact of this event.

Thanks for your patience, feel free to email me with any questions that arise.

The race was a ton of fun the last couple years. Great opportunity to get on the bike during the winter months. Let's see if we can get a better turnout than last year and get some more runs.

So your saying that the wind we use is 100% Pacific Northwest? What happends when the "Pineapple EXpress" comes through, does it avoid Stevens Pass?

Yeah, I thought some kid broke his arm or something. At least I saw a guy cradling his arm and talking to the medics as I was scooping myself up from that same hole.

thats cool. ive laughed at you when you totaled your car, didnt get your sx trail like you said you would 3 months ago, cant drive yourself anywhere to bike. . . . . . . no offense:busted:

Well its cool, I'll get a car eventually, I atleast have the van on the weekends. And I dig riding the hardtail this time of the year, street is a blast. I'll get the SX later I suppose...not like it would have seen much use next month when crew starts anyhow...(3 hours a day 6 days a week, ski bus on saturdays, and work till May)
