No, the parking is actually 250$ but you get a hand car wash by 12 hot models dressed like french maids and one of those hottie is shaking free margaritas for the racers.

Not really, the parking is absolutely free.

If she wants to shake something else you can forget about the slalom... :D

I had an unbelieveably good time racing with all you people yesterday. I felt at home from the second everybody got there. No attitudes just tons of fun and great racing. Thanks especially to Danilo, Pierre and Mig for all the tips - and to Pierre and Joelle for the great food and hospitality afterwards. Sorry to leave the party early but I was fading fast and going into a big time food coma with the drive back home ahead. I'd go up there again ANY time! Canada Rocks!!

Thanks Rick for making it to Montréal, by coming here, you turned our outlaw into an international event! ;-)

It was a pleasure meeting and ride with you.

Good photographer! Nice ones of Julie (IMGP7545.jpg) and Louis (IMGP7727.jpg) faces intensely focused on the course.

And this one I like because of what the board is doing....got torsional flex?

Eric B. and I are hoping to carpool up for the Dovercourt race!!

Yup...figured that out last night! At first glance looks like that sucker is twisting though.

I think that it's the shadows that make it look twisted too.



Julie posted her video from that race:

Sweet video! C'est bon - merci beaucoup Julie!

Pierre - I think maybe it is the rider that is twisted, not the deck! ;-)

Wish I could have hung around for the awards...next time.
