[Brian HCM#1]

[sanjuro]

I still think they should fire up the nuclear reactor inside Mt Pluto and let some of the steam vent out....

[Total Heckler]

Yay! I talked to the reps at the Seaotter and they assured me that the new irrigated trail is going to happen and that its going to be sick. I'm so pumped to ride there this summer.

[Brian HCM#1]

Looks like it's melting fast:thumb:

Its about time you posted this thread. Now for everyone who views it, just go ahead and turn your heaters on and hope it goes through via internet. LOL

now that i'm working up at the lake he's busy driving my little car to n* for meetings. not sure how a plow would work on that.

it's so cold the snow has barely melted at my house.

yeah. and at their booth they gave $30 off season passes + the $100 credit for 2 summers ago = a very very reasonably priced summer season pass.

[systmrocks99]

[sanjuro]

Here is some good news (I guess):

[Brian HCM#1]

It's very good news, F the snow!!!!!!

[Low_b]

Gonna be a fun season!!!

[Brian HCM#1]

Gonna be a fun season!!!Hey Bry, you riding there this summer?

[Low_b]

Hey Brian,

Yup, I'm gonna use my discount coupon from 2 seasons ago for a pass.
I'll be riding my PX. No more Karpiel for me. Well actually we still have a disco sitting around here so I might break it out once in a while.

I havent ridden in 6 months. I was shuttling in the fall down in auburn.

I'm looking forward to get back to the N* and hanging with all the old bros!!

Hope to see you there!!

[Brian HCM#1]

Sweet!!! I'll be there opening weekend. Can't wait!!!!!!

[FREERDR4LF]

I CAN'T FRIGGIN WAIT!!!
does anyone that had a 2005 season pass remember the 2 discounts they promised us? i still have the letter for a $50 discount for the park closing early, and i seem to remember something about another $50 off for the park closing completely in 2006.
i just emailed the PR people and i'm waiting for a response.

[Brian HCM#1]

Lots of dirt showing:thumb:

Great Brian! Been too long since I've seen ya on your bike.
I heard something about some stuff in your neck of the woods, riding wise. Know anything about it? Ran into a guy I knew 7yrs ago and offloaded my Disco to and he was telling me something was up.:twitch:

[matt12]

Sick! Looks like its snowing!

[amydalayna]

i wouldn't fret too much about the snow -- it really hasn't been sticking around much at all around here.

[DUKESofTAH0E]

word on the street is the bike carriers are already on the lift lines

[FREERDR4LF]

all that dirt looks so good. june 29th should be a definite.
hope to see a lot of monkeys there on that friday.

Live Wire, Gypsy and Boondocks are all off to the side there.
Is the Tahoe Zephyr Express lift gonna be running? (please say yes)

[Biscuit]

I had heard Boondocks was going to be closed. Looks like it's still on the map. Anybody know otherwise???

Love your new sig. I was literally thinking the same thing about thirty seconds ago.
(no offense to Brian of course...)

[J_B]

Inspired by the thread in DH that turned into and absolute sh*tstorm:busted:

[FREERDR4LF]

i get the feeling that N* is going to be slammed with riders on the
29th. it's going to be great. haven't been there since 2005, is the parking going to be ample enough?

[Prettym1k3]

I'll be there on the 30th.

[Zark]

I have a bunch a lift tickets for Sat due to a botched stay and play deal (long story) $20 each, I got 5 of em. Please help!

[kidwoo]

Boondocks got rerouted about a third of the way down.

That's what I and a few others have been working on part time.
Just keep in mind it's not done yet. We've got more work to do (mostly wood features)

Livewire hasn't even been started and gypsy is finished.

zephyr will be running

[OGRipper]

first round for them is on me for sure

If it's even close to what I've heard the rest of us better not let them pay for a beer all summer.

:clapping: :clapping:

I can't wait to call in sick for friday. I'm pretty sure it's going to be worth it.

Oh yeah, and those pictures aren't helping me wait, either. ;)

[Brian HCM#1]

One More Day!!!!!!

So wait, Livewire is being pimped to get people jazzed to get up there, and it's not even started?!?! :plthumbsdown: Get to work slacker!! j/k woo, thanks for the update.

[Prettym1k3]

How's the weather/fire situation up there? Anyone?

I'm not inclined to inhale 6 lbs. of smoke and ash.

Then again, if Northstar WAS on fire, I'd still ride it. It'd make for some sweet photos.

Northstar's over 30 miles from the fire, it's the dust there that will give you a respitory infection...
We've done 10+ mile trail rides the last 2 evenings here on the south shore and my house is only 4 miles from the fire... the smoke is not oppresive. Come on up to Tahoe, spend your money locally and ride!

smoke is all clear. there was another fire on the north shore yesturday to go along with south shores big one. but today it was breezy and clear at northstar all day. you all should be stoked with all the good riding tomorrow thanks to the trail crew who busted ass all week and put in another 10 hour day today to get things ready for you. also check out the new skills developement area at the base of vista with the double long log ride, super fun tetortoter(sp?), and try to link the first box with the dog house box to the log ride if you dare.
