I get back into the states on Thursday/Friday from spring break, so I'd be down for hitting up some GR or Grand Haven hills if the roads are skateable for the weekend.

I will also keep my eyes peeled. I went out today a little bit, but their all mostly wet still. I did some sliding on the hill\parking lot entrance to the "YMCA", but it's pretty nasty out still. Let me know if you find and GH runs that are dry. Where did you go for Spring Break B.?

Teddy, I hit mill pond park on they way home from dinner last night. Thought I was going to get kicked out of Mac's parking lot, so I drove to sho my girlfriend where i took the big spill. You were right. The pavement was dry enough, so i took a few runs down it on my Bustin Complex. Definitely handles better than my 2 original homemade 3/4 inch flat birch ply boards. I didn't have much protection on (just a helmet and gloves) so i didn't want to push it too much. We'll get back there soon!!!
