Beg Sport is the same as lst time right?
I had suggested combining the top of the expert trail with the sport course, even if we had to climb the road section in between.

Doug...check your PM's. 
just noticed in the team points, SEI Racing got snubbed with no points...and then also in team points Sky Valley is in there. funny
The problem with moving the sports up the road is that we will then have 3 start locations. Trail 14 for the beginners, the first road crossing for the sports, and the top of everyone else. Also, no one wants to climb up teh road to trail 14 to avoid the waterfall; you have alot of riding to do on the new course. alot
Plus, if you want to race the upper section than race expert, you can't be a sport forever........can you?

Just get rid of that big comfy seat...mtbman4 said:
You know I once saw a couple pics of just that on the internet. This girl was riding herself to pleasure...spoke80 said:Totally remove the seat post and replace it with a tennis ball or rubber dong!
Not only will this really improve your sprint, but it will also bring in a new, more diverse group of DHers who may have an alternative lifestyle.spoke80 said:Totally remove the seat post and replace it with a tennis ball or rubber dong!
I'm planning on riding on Saturday. Don't know where or how I'm gonna stay b/c I don't have any dough for a hotel. I may be stuck having to sleep in my truck that night.Jeremy R said:Not only will this really improve your sprint, but it will also bring in a new, more diverse group of DHers who may have an alternative lifestyle.
Would anyone be interested in a poker game?
$25 buy in. $2 max bets. 2 bump max.
Quarters, dimes, nickles. mostly quarters.
After all, it is our last weekend together- but not in a gay way.
maybe a little metro...

See you guys up there. Leaving Summerville, SC in approx. 45 minutes. I will be in beginner(never DH before) on gunmetal gray bullit. Hopefully I will get to make some runs tomorrow. Anyone think Harpers will have an Avid 8" rotor adapter?
