All you ladies missed out on Northstar, it was off the hook....

no joke!!
the drive was sooo worth it. sleep or no sleep, can't tell you how glad I am that we did this.

Joe, Edgy and Randy absolutely shredded Livewire, which was by far the funnest trail on the mountain.. i'm already daydreaming of 10' tall berms and 20' tabletops
on the drive home, all four of us would sit in complete silence for 30-40 minutes at a time with sh!t eating grins on our faces, all thinking about those berms and tabletop lines... absolutely unreal!

hate to admit the obvious, but NorthStar trails put Mammoth to shame

Agreed. I hate to overdue the whole, "N* was off the hizzle" routine, but damn fellas, you guys missed out on some really bad a$$ trails. Livewire, Karpiel, Pho Dogg, Dog Bone, Speed Demon...really, the only reason I stopped riding was because my hands started to bleed and I wasnt able to hold on anymore. I am definitely going back this summer if I cant work out Whistler.

Drive only took 7 hours up, 7 hours to get back. Good company, good riding, good times indeed.

You too?? Doing 15-16 back to back Karpiel and Dog Bone runs will do that. Ugh..

 

[mandown]

we knew y'all would say it was worth it, even if it was ****ty.
we shreded SS and it was better

 

[Nagaredama]

Agreed. Ireally, the only reason I stopped riding was because my hands started to bleed and I wasnt able to hold on anymore.

Words like this make me proud to know and ride with you.

Spoke with Pavel yesterday and it sounds like you guys had an awesome time. I'm going to try my best to head up there in Fall.

 

[Abstrakt51]

I'm planning on heading back up for the July 26th weekend for any of those interested.

I'm in.

I'm seriously bitter that I bought a season pass to Mammoth. Hey Randy, I must have been looking at the wrong rate in line, the website shows passes to N* are only $229.

Adam, you will love it up there, you gotta make it in July dude...

 

[W4S]

I'm heading up July 4th weekend for 3-4 days of lift accessed riding if anybody is interested.

Joe, are you making any moves on a new DH rig?

 

[kazlx]

I'm trying to decide what I want. I like the V10, but I don't know if it's much of a jumper. There are just so many quality rigs to choose from...

 

[blender]

gotta tell you.. the R9 is not much of a jumper, but it tore up Livewire!

 

[Covenasty]

livewire was okay.... i have this thing with doubles...haha...but boondocks and gypsy where sick.... karpel's (veitnam) rock garden was sick.... just sick....

 

[Abstrakt51]

Best part of N* wasnt the trails, it was the amount of hot MILFS walking around the resort. The city of Tahoe also had a sh*tload of hot chicks...must be the climate. Not that Edgy cared, he's more into boys and Sam Hill.

i expected nothing else from a guy that only leaves the ground to reach the cookies on top of the fridge

 

[kazlx]

The whole weekend was just awesome. The was a huge concentration of hot chicks and MILFs. I might have to find one to bring home with me the next trip. I think we need to head back to Steamers for a pizza and a hot waitress. I need a big bike for the next trip...

several minutes later we were at the bottom, walking up to the lift :huh:

 

[Abstrakt51]

We should be getting some head cam footage shortly.

 

[blender]

[RC_Compton]

I should be getting the footage from Aris this weekend and have it all edited up by early next week. Any requests/suggestions for music on the vid?

 

[RC_Compton]

Is this the pic of Matt??

 

[Abstrakt51]

Any requests/suggestions for music on the vid?

This might be fitting since they were bumping his music all weekend from the main lodge. lthumbsdown:

 

[RC_Compton]

wow thats pretty gay to the max... anyone else

anything but all that neo MTV metal sh!t

One thing I dug about Roam is that they chose mellow music for some of the segments. Instead of the typical head thrashing metal that everyone associates with downhill mountain biking.
It created a nice contrast to the aggressive nature of our sport.

It don't have to be Phill Collins or anything... 'cause that's just gay..
but how about Depeche Mode

....

..

ok, kidding.
but you get my point

 

[Abstrakt51]

Who's riding this weekend? There will be a group hitting Claremont or Laguna on Sunday.

 

[mandown]

my hands and body are beat from riding the hardtail at SS. the two runs down CBailey back2back kicked my butt.
