No can do, I'm getting married this weekend. I'll be back Aug 12th. We should hit the Whoops of the BMX track. You'd be welcome to ride the $69 steed as much as you like.

Nice...how big was the gap to tranny?
that gap was short, probably no more than 2 feet from lip to landing. however, the drop down was closer to 10 feet and that tranny was steep and ran out forever. it kicked you to a big o' booter. i didn't do either, but some the of the boys i was riding with rocked it. there were only two locals w/ the danglies to hit the drop and the booter.

If you want to borrow it while I'm gone you are more than welcome to. Darn thing needs to get ridden. It has only seen the BMX track twice.

If you can pick it up from my place in Manhattan Beach, you're welcome to borrow it. Shoot me a PM.

Haybear, you are welcome to join. Call me and I'll give you the directions.

All others, this means we need to decide on a time and place. Stunt by 830 and the whoops after? If that is agreeable, let's start a rollcall.

Mandown, I have to pass for a couple of weeks. I tore tendons and muscles as well as dislocates my collar bone 3 days ago on the Intense trail. Way overshot a step down, cleared the tranny and flatted on the front end and went off the trail into a double cartwheel flip like thingy. :D
I am down as soon as the pain subsides and i can lift my car keys in front of me.

i wanted to throw something out there.. just food for thought.

if we hit DJs straight after Stunt, we'd basically be going there in the prime of the heat, which is not really that fun. How about regrouping at Kenter later that afternoon instead?

yeah, I am up for stunt in the morning. If we don't do whoops straight away afterwards, I will have to be one of the people lost...

Still looking forward to riding in the AM though!
