Hi Monkey's,
I went dh'ing this weekend at PA where the Spring Fling will be taking place. It was a little muddy from the perma frost thawing. Not too bad though. I was able to check out the "Beginner/Sport" trail that shoots off at the top and connects back to the original Knuck trail. It is very fun. Tight burm to burn with little jumps (rollable) with a steep shoot at the end. There is also a section on it that you can take that is called the "OS" standing for "Oh Sh*t!" You can go around it of course! There is also a new stunt trail that Jason said someone else built out there as well.
The main reason for this email is to get a better idea for Jason who all is coming. You don't have to Pre-register for this event. But, if you do plan to come, please responde to this thread just to say you're in. Jason needs to know how much food to buy so everyone can feast! Oh, one more thing, Jason is going to have 3 Shuttle trucks!!!! Yes, U-hauls!
Hope you can make it! You don't want to miss out on this awesome event!
Me + 1 from work for sure.
Sounds reeeeeeeely fun. Fenders on!
Did you see why OS is called OS??

OS is called OS because that is what you will be saying when you go down it. You cut off the main trail to the left and it is pretty steep with 3 drops and 2 of them are into sharp corners! Be carefull as you may over shoot the drop and go off into the woods! I got to see Jason do this when taking a run with him! He didn't get hurt thankfully! :thumb:
I am not going I HATE that place!! But......I might go if Evan Mutari is gonna be there. That guy rips so hard!!!!!!!!

Barring death or another f~ing rat mysteriously breaking into and taking up residence in my house, I'm planning on being there.
The cats' annual performance review will not go well this year.

I'll definitly be there. I also have a seat available in my truck if anyone needs a ride from Seattle.
Bibs, your not allowed to come cause you still owe me cash $$ from the last trip. Tell your bitch of a roommate the same thing.

There's going to be a few people on hardtails - just ask Bibs. Most of the course is nice and flowy. If you don't like the dh course hang out on the mtnx course all day.

i'm gonna take my share of runs at the beginner but i'd like to try both XC trails to see if they're fun. i imagine the 3 miler would be fun. The White Knuckler (beginner) is alot of fun, but you lose alot of elevation quick. i got a new fork for my Bullit so i can ride XC on it with the twist of the dial.

Thought about bringing the HT, but it is not completely ideal yet, and I can do whatever of the Mtnx course I want to try on my DH.
What's the price??
I might have to beg my dad or cash out my piggy bank.
Hey vibiker and Oly! Luch rides I'm tellin' ya'.
And now you all have an unfair advantage/ my only bikes are DJ and DH.
