Last year we held an outlaw. If you came to that this race is being held on hill #2 from the outlaw. Please if you know the hill do not ride it before the race.

assuming this is IGSA sanctioned you should mention somewhere on the site that everyone will need fullfaces and leathers, correct?

[mcgoon]

It doesn't say IGSA anywhere...

[bluewoodboarder]

This is not IGSA sanctioned. But I'll add the safety gear requirements to the site, sorry about that. Let me double check but they will most likely be leathers and full face, if not that it'll be leathers and full pads. Expect an update later today.

[bluewoodboarder]

Ok so for now to make sure no one registers, and needs to be refunded leathers, full face, and gloves are required. We may lift this restriction at a later time. Added some info to the website and you can now just go to:

LEATHERS ARE NOT REQUIRED ANY MORE!!!

Gear requirements are a full face helmet, slide gloves, and leathers, or elbow+knee pads plus jeans and a longsleeve shirt.

I hope some newer riders who haven't been able to purchase leathers yet will get to come out and skate.

Sweet. I am hoping to make it out to the race.

are spectators gonna be able to do runs down the hill at anytime?

[bluewoodboarder]

No one who isn't a registered racer will be allowed skate the race course. All of the riding time will be devoted to those paid their hard earned money to participate and have signed a waiver, etc.

Hope you understand.

Thanks

Good to hear you'll be watching the action unfold. There are a couple activities I'm planning for racers along with other people besides just the race. One may be a Friday night check in and skate along the river. Maybe a bike path push race with the finish being diving into the river? We'll see. Also I'd love to have a mass of us cruise down webber canyon. It's mellow enough for almost anyone to ride and is something that fun for everyone.

sounds like some good ideas.. i've been spreading the word around about the race. ever thought of hanging up flyers along the river path or some where? seems to be a lot of riders that dont know about the race. i ended up missing last years cause i was un-aware.. itd be a shame to have riders in the same situation this year as well.

[bluewoodboarder]

Hey Spaz,

I'll get a flyer made up and email it to you if you would be willing to put them up in some spots. We're going to do some check-in and registration on the Pasco bike path on Friday night, with a group cruise and maybe that push race I've been talkin about. Lets get a ton of locals to come out and ride in the cruise and try to get some people stoked on DH.

Thanks
Noah

That Registration and Check In would be the night before race day, July 31st. That way people driving in from out of town could make it and meet up with everyone.

Thanks for PM with your email. I'll try to get some stuff sent to you tonight
