dirtyj, have you done most of them? Which ones are the best to race?? If you had to pick 5 to race, which ones would they be?

[igotabike]

i heard telluride is good

[dirtyj]

definitely go hit up moab, snowmass, angle fire, and telluride. The final decent is pretty fun. That night after the race they held a costume party. To bad it rained and snowed. El paso is pretty fun. It had some pretty tech step she-it. Even though its not a mountain states cup its pretty fun. Red bull was kind enough to cook use food and odviously had refreshments.

yean, word up, final descent was crazy, got even crazier when my gloves fell off the ski lift :monkey:.
What did you race in final descent, and i'd have to agree, moab, snowmass, telluride, chille challenge was pretty fun this year, with exception for shattered collar bone and wrist:rolleyes:

I was in Moab in 2003 and rode the bike park and Bartlet Wash. i could not find the muchroom drop - a storm moved in real fast and we got the hell out of there. I should have gone out to Hanksville. I want to hit some of those gaps/drops this year!

I'm definitely going to hit up Moab this year. Should be pretty damn cool.
Final Descent was awesome. It was my first downhill race and now I'm hooked.
I assume everyone is going to show up at Comfort?

[dirtyj]

me and joe r going 2 hite up moab too. maybe will follow u up there joel. what day r u going. 2 bad we didn't get to chill more in angle fire. we had a sweet place to stay thanks 2 t.

[Big E]

yeah Angel Fire is always worth it. Los Alamos has a gret trail but its not a mountain states cup race. some of us from El Paso should be in comfort. we got a race comin up in El Paso in April. you should keep an eye out on the website. we always have new crazy stuff goin on.

Peace

[downhil]

[igotabike]

I know a LOT of you guys race DH, and we're stoked as all get out to have ya'll come up here for the MSC races that you do, as well as Final Descent and all of that.
