All those practicing the course will have a leg up next weekend. There were more riders practicing the course today than the saturday before the last race ?? I guess there are a lot of close classes all going for double points next weekend. See Ya there. Re: Great Day !!!

I think I have all the partying out of my system now, see you & Geoff next weekend. I'll try to drag Scot along also.

I heard there was a bit of a white out yesterday. How does the whole course flow together? I have some friends coming up that aren't sure whether their racing or just freeeriding. Re: Great Day !!!

Fri-Sun shows snow for the whole weekend. I'm bringing my rock skis and maybe my bike. Re: Great Day !!!

Hey George, shall I bring some Labatts???

Posted: Wed Nov 01, 2006 2:53 pm dhsean Burner   Joined: Apr 23, 2003 Posts: 190 The weekend looks to be OK but there is some accumulating snow forecast for wednesday into thursday. I would imagine most would melt by the weekend. If not, I'd rather have fun in the snow than getting pissed on by the rain. Bringing multiple pairs of gloves, thermals, rain gear, plastic garbage bags, etc... Standard Plattekill survival kit. Oh yeh, don't forget the beer.
