Who will be at the Downieville Classic this weekend?

[Total Heckler]

Does anyone have any room for me and my car? I'm planning on sleeping in the back so all I need is a place to park.

Or if anyone wants to drive up with me we can find a place to camp. Let me know.

[J_B]

Brett just called....he said he wants to be the big spoon.

[Total Heckler]

Oh geez. No. How many times do I have to say no?! No means no. Not yes. haha

Is he actually going?

[Prettym1k3]

Sweet! Yeah, I'm into the skipping out on the campsite thing too I think. I am planning on just parking somewhere to sleep in the back of the wagon.

I'm heading up Friday evening. I have the day off but I have some obligations to take care of in town before I go.

Speaking of parts, think you can bring along the crank arms and seat post? =]

[Prettym1k3]

Sweet! We will have to meet up while were both out there for sure. Are you registered?

[basixcyclewerx]

Not racing this trip was planned before i even thought about downieville.
Just happened to be the same weekend.

Yeah man You got the cellie? hit me up if you need a place to sleep i will have an extra cot i think as well..

[Total Heckler]

Hmmm... thats pretty tempting. How far of a drive is it from Downieville to Truckee?

[Prettym1k3]

Josh:

We'll be buying our ridiculously oversized HD TV tomorrow (compliments of wedding gifts of the BestBuy Gift Card persuasion. LOL!), so we'll have a a nice little tv setup sometime soon. :-) Then you and the lady will have to come over for dinner one night.

[Total Heckler]

NICE.

Emily and I are game.

Can i bring grant? :banana:

[Prettym1k3]

Grant will pee and poo on everything.

He will have to sit out on the balcony with the pigeons.

On a slightly-related note, a pigeon made a nest with two eggs behind my stack of 4 tires on my balcony. It scared the piss out of me when I moved the tires yesterday, and a gigantic pigeon went flying up into the air.

leaving tomorrow morning. this bike and white ford f250.

Damn you and your fancy seat post. My stupid manual one will be the death of me on the climb.

Scott, you have my phone number right?

[Prettym1k3]

Hey Josh,

Have you ridden with Scotty-J yet?

That fool is a ripper.

Good luck to you both!

[Total Heckler]

I have. We did some UC riding a while ago. He also beat me by a second at the CCCX finals. =]

Thanks Mike! We for sure have to chill soon.

[Ringer]

stand and mash the climb. you will be find on it. my single ring will be the death of me. 36T for cross country and dh. ohhh boy. i do not have your number...dont htink

[Total Heckler]

Scott - just sent you a text to your number (I think). haha hope its you.

Also, I'm running the single ring 36t up front too. =] There will be some uphill mashing for me.

DVille is not too tech so only lower your seat a little from your XC height to begin with. When you get to the bridge just ride with your seat down as long as you can take it, alternating between sitting and standing, then when you're thoroughly smoked, hop off and run with your bike for a bit to use differnet muslces, then jump back on and stand up to get that last bit of steep section out of the way. That's what I did when I was up there last and it worked pretty good.

[Prettym1k3]

I think the 50" 1080p 30,000:1 Samsung that Jehn and I bought last night was a tad much.

My eyes hurt.

But I'll be watching Demolition Man tonight, and will feel good watching John Spartan beat the piss out of Simon Phoenix until my retinas burn out. :D

**** yeah, that thing sounds awesome. Curious how much you dropped on that bad boy. Emily and I were thinking something similar to that for our new place.

[Total Heckler]

Oh, I will be out there driving and riding the following:

We got a ton of gift cards from Best Buy, so it wasn't that bad.

But I think out the door it would have been something like $2,300.

Wait a week or two, and just watch. Prices will drop another $100-$200 because all the new stuff comes out near the middle/end of July.

On a side note, a lot of the older 720p TV's look just as good as the 1080p TV's, and are 20-35% cheaper. Just keep that in mind.

And shop at Fry's... they're cheaper. :)

[gonefirefightin]

i will be at gnar star this weekend.

[Prettym1k3]

Brett,

Will you has my jersey? Or do you still sleep with it every night when I'm not around?

[sanjuro]

Family crisis handled (for now).
Procrastination period done.
Packed (did that early this week).
Fixed my aerobed leak.
Have to put a pissed off post in the PAWN forum.
See you in DVille (I will be riding a Test Bike Enduro).
