Then that makes at least 8 from Fl, got 4 coming in my truck too.
With the weekend so close, I figured now would be a good time to thank all of the people who have donated some sweet ass stuff for the raffle as well as resources for the weekend.
Cane Creek- Double barrel...Nuff said, also, and angleset for slackening out that geo
I9- hubs, and more importantly some really sweet bottle openers!
Suspension Experts- suspension rebuild vouchers
Red house bikes
Billygoat Bikes/Mountain Khakis
Weevil Outdoors
Tifosi Optics
Sicklines.com- Im probably going to vomit in my mouth a little bit when i see whatever uberbike you bring to ride
Dirt Passion- hyping it up and making us chumps look like we know what we're doing
Team Gutbomb- trucks and trailers, without this we would be **** out of luck
Special thanks to Butch for donating his Boxxer to the raffle, you're the man!
We will be staging in the upper parking lot, however if it becomes too congested there will be plenty of overflow parking in lower lot. Grill will be running so bring you some grub to throw on if you want. If you have a strava thingy, bring it, just for ****s and giggles at this point, but it would be interesting to see how they work up there in mass. There will be shuttling both saturday and sunday for anyone who is intersted in both days. Also, please remember to purchase your permit down at the snack shack otherwise they will stop you at the entrance. If I am forgetting something than oh well.

Alex, it's just me from this point forward. We've gone our separate ways, but I am still gonna keep doing what I have been doing all season.
Looking forward to it. See you all there.
so i cant call you DP anymore?
no sir, Dirt Passion is still alive, with Sam/Chris/JT... just no more me and last I talked to them they were going in a different direction. All the coverage I've done this season will continue in 2013, just not under the DP name. I am still working to come up with my own name.
last i checked, its Jay. you could try Steve, thats a fun name.
Hopefully someone brings some cinnamon m00nshine. That stuff is tasty.

there will be two operational trailers on satruday.
ACCCCKKK!!!!!!
Behave! Someone will think you're serious and take it out on me.
Especially considering I'll be hand delivering it that day to it's new owner. The only thing I didn't see mentioned is for everyone to remember that everyone needs to pay bump to the shuttle drivers. And dirty panties, while I'm sure are appreciated as always, are not currency the drivers are familiar with.

Since we will have two trucks running, there will be a one stop donation station for your visitation. All proceeds will go to both trucks, and the remainder going to the trails.

I'll be headed up, just got my bike back today. Took suspension experts 2 weeks to get to my fork but it arrived in the nick of time, although the cost sort of flattened my wallet (went way over budget). Still, I can't wait to try it out at Windrock on Saturday.
How long do you think the ride will be on Sunday? I'm up for a half-day ride but would like to get back home to "rest" before the workweek starts again.

At campground A13....Gettn firewood and anyone welcome to come on by.
Hot Damn I'm excited for this weekend.
Clealan, Just taked to Brook... of course he's bummed he's still sidelined. He told me to ask you to show me all the potential good spots to take photos. Said to have the shuttle drop me off where Rattlesnake starts? (I never been there). Suggestions?
Wear a hat backwards, grey sleeveless t, camo shorts, Wolverine boots, Oakley tattoo, pack of smokes. Stand roadside. Free rides....all day!
Here's the album from yesterday.... not a whole lot of images as I seemed to always be on the wrong trail.
Was my first time there, great stuff fosho. Thanks to Alex, Josh and everybody else whom had a hand in the making of...... next time I go, I ride!

Good one Troy thanks for the time to edit and film it.
Bigthanks to Alex(Rocklobster) for all the hard work.I can't imagine how much time it took for one man to open the trail from the top and the time to coordinate everything else.
Yup, the new trail was great. Cant wait to ride it more and for it to get a name. Titties Rock!
-Brett
i wanna thank josh and clealan for massive amount of wear on there trucks and brakes for sure!!! and yea i edited that vid on the 1.5 hour drive home :O)
Never been flashed on a DH trail before. Talk about sudden loss of focus! (on the trail, that is)
I'll echo the others in giving a big Thank You to all those who organised the event and did the shuttling all day. That was my first trip to Windrock and I survived mostly unscathed (okay, so I went over the bars at the rock illustrated early on in that video). Look forward to riding it in the future, not horrendously far from where I am. It was a great event and I had a very memorable time.
I finished the day with a bodyslam to my hip. Crashed that way and landed on a rock slab. I have a bruise that goes from my back to my penis and down the front of my quadricep. I actually have purple swelling on my unit fellas. It's honestly the worst crash I've ever had. I didn't break a single bone, but I did so much tissue damage that it looks like there is a football next to my crotch. It shattered my phone, which was in my back pocket where I did not even land, or I'd post a pic guaranteed to make you all near puke.
I've hurt my self all sorts of way, but this is just disgusting to look at today. I had so much fun riding. But again, scared myself worse than ever. To the guys who picked me up and got my wits back, thank you so much.

Huge thanks to Josh and the Colonel, without your trucks the whole thing couldn't have taken place. It was great to catch up with everyone Ive met over the last 8 months, i even managed to meet some new friends - the DH spirit is alive and well.
Alex you have created a masterpiece with the new trail, good job.
Thanks to Cane Creek for the Angle Headset as well.
See you all at TTC in a few weeks
It was an awesome day.

Big thanks to everyone that help out with this event! Awesome place and great to catch up with everybody and ride.
Been telling you that for how long???
Windrock rules, and this was the best trip yet! Thanks to everyone who helped out~!
Windrock made my ankle turn into a softball, and it's still fvcking awesome! Hucked more sh!t than I ever have before, so stoked on the weekend...even though I won't be on the bike for a few weeks at the least!
I know they have already been thanked, but much appreciation to the people who put this on, and for the use of Josh and Clealan's trucks. Also, the work done to get the top of windmill opened was incredible. That trail from the top is the best thing DH in the whole southeast. I gotta get back up there before winter.
And Clealan, I paid Matt for the use of your truck while you were riding. He stashed it somewhere in your console.
