It's going to rain Rockstar energy drink. You'll be uncomfortably energetic. Mother nature will be like "slooow doooown" and you'll be like "f---k you" and kick her in the head with your energy legs.
Bring the rain gear and plastic bags.

They are still painting the towers on the triple chair, I don'y know when they will be done, It rains alot at Platty as with most mountains they have weird & strange weather patterns,
DHSean is one of those "metrosexuals" and doesn't like to get dirt under his finger nails!!!!!!!
pussy!!!!

So you like muddy swamp ass and wearing soggy mud all day? And then you sit in your car for the ride home that way?
You, sir, are a dirty dawg!

Last I checked I didn't have a silverliner condo with electric and water at Plattekill like some people. Bring on the mud - I have a lot of gloves to keep the dirt out of my finger nails. Clean finger nails are worth 5 seconds on a typical DH race run. Your going down Karpi.
Let the smack talk begin! Who is going to buy drinks this time?

I just pre registered. Saved a wopping $1.40, and know I get to go first in my class. Can't wait to get my ass handed to me in that tech section. Hopefully a couple of you guys can show me how to get thru it. Not to mention, I've never done that double drop section. Looks like you have to down shift b4 hand to be able to crank up and off the first drop. The second drop should just be a roll over, with all the speed from the first one.
As always, I'll be competing for last place. But finally I get to ride both days so I should have everything down, that I can actually start doing some trash talking. So maybe I'll be showing the boys in expert 30-39 who's boss!
Beer and fire in 3 days, can't wait!!!!!
