Awesome vid. I am SO hoping for no rain for you guys this year.

You should try and pimp that story I wrote to a few of the local papers - heck - send one to the Globe - or at least the Pheonix. Let me know...

We've been getting warmed up for this weekend.

SATURDAY'S FORECAST IS FOR SUNNY AND 80!!!

Please plan on arriving around 10- 10:30 AM. We're going to get there and set up the ramp and the timer then let people practice and then we'll do registration and racing.

The courses will be first a hybrid to be set on the day of and then maybe a tight slalom if everyone is up for it.

Just remember my phone number 781 492 9312.

I will post photos tomorrow or Tuesday after I get my Mac, the computer I'm on now is pretty bare of useful software

It took me a while but here is a Photo Album I'm sorry, at present I have no image editing software as I am waiting for photoshop to arrive in the mail so these are raw
