I'll be heading up there this weekend! It should be very funny. Why you ask?
Times I've ridden my new race bike? 1
Times I've ridden since breaking my shoulder 8 months ago? 1
It should be quite comical for the spectators! But, if I don't go there's no way for me to get to the national championships in September, so I'm off to the races!

I'll be there... I should have the Banshee tuned and ready by Friday mornin, and then its just a matter of seeing what happens with my shoulder. Its deffinately feelin better, But still kills when I teak it... Even if I dont race I'll be there though.
I guess technically, Im a WA rider... But whatever..

PM box cleaned out...
My shoulder is gettin a bit better. Im hoping that it'll be good to go by Sat. for practice. If not then I'll just hang out, meet people and check out the race.
Lesson learned: Always check out a line before launching it!!!

Frank, was that up at PC? Which drop? Hmm, maybe I better not ask; it'll just make me nervous next time I go up there, which means I'll be more likely to crash.

Most definitely!
I have only been on a bike twice in the last two years, so I'm real amped to get riding again. How are the Flat Mt. trails now?

i think it was off one of the stumps on the lower section of trail, right before you drop down next to the stream... :dead:

Ehh, Im gonna go try to test it Sat. doing some practice runs. It felt alot better when I put my pressure suit on last night. Just something to make it feel more solid.
Another lesson learned.: If you have armor, wear it... Dont put comfort over protection.:dead:
