I dont think i'm going to be able to make it after all :(

Everyone that was going with me backed out on me, and a 6 and a half hour drive is a long one to make by myself. also, the forecast is for rain all this week through the weekend, and I dont want to drive for so long to go camping in the rain. Call me a pvssy, but thats just not my idea of fun.

Hope the rest of you have a blast, and the weather holds out on you!

Well, since its supposed to rain all weekend in VT i might have talked my mom into taking me down. Because "its no fun to just ride in the rain, but if theres a purpouse, such as a race it becomes a whole different story." :p

How do i do it :evil:

We will have to see for sure...

Looks like Saturday might be alright. Saturday they said it was going to be the same thing, not a drop of rain all day... :)

If my friend Vin from VT cant come, would you and say your Dad or Mom want to share the hotel with my Mom? Since you arent racing its not really worth it for your whole family now... Just checking..

I suggest you drive up and hang with team xxl at the race. And riding in the wet is fun!

Yeah, that crew will be there for sure. They ain't gonna miss the race of the year. I will be up there with Chris, Ryan, and Doug, and I think the Morewood crew is heading up too. I am not sure who else.
Last year I was only one from the Carolinas there period. :)

I'll be there.....will be my first race there since the Kamikaze series in 2000.

Side note - The white buildings they have there were put up when the whole place burnt to the ground in 99. The first race they ever had there (or mtb of any kind) was in like October 1999. We had practice on Saturday and showed up Sunday for the race and the place was burnt to the ground.....race cancelled...!

This weekend, my goal is to qualify.

Hey There! Hopefully I'll see you. Look for a guy riding an old Lawwill (no, not yours... ;) ) or an orange Chameleon.

Fo Shizzle ! I'm in. Had a clean run there last weekend in the rain , not particularly fast, but clean.
See ya'll on the mt.

Hey Can't Climb(Tom). Interesting little piece of trivia there bro.

Word from there last weekend is that the mid section of the course( rock gardens) will be differant than last year.The start and the burms will be the same.

I'll be there on a whirlwind tour - arriving by plane Saturday morning and flying out Sunday morning. Racing's a no-go, but I threw my bike and gear in the e13 Bang Bus, so I'll be able to take some runs with you suckas. Would love to stay longer, but the rest of the office bailed on me and I'm the only one left to cover the phones/Emails/shipments for yesterday and today!

The weather report's improving dramatically, so I'm looking forward to a great weekend!
