In Amsterdam drug testing means doing a Tour of the 'Coffee Shops' then staggering home to make notes ;)

When you get home you realize you forgot completely about what you were supposed to make a note of and then you have to go out and start it all over again :-)

After the "coffee" tour comes the Bananan Bar, then you walk around in circles until you find "home"...

So far we have a brand new surface. A coin rolls all the way down the hill as smooth as a baby face......

This was specially laid down for the contest.


The city of Amsterdam paid!!!! to have a contest that was going to happen on the same weekend as ours CANCELLED.

The city wants to make the SLALOM event the third biggest annual event on that location together with an international racing cycling event and an international junior football event. Both football and cycling even have a attendance of 3000 people on the two days the last to watch races and player of the whole world.

The city wants to " adopt " our event.

Do you guys realize the potential?

I do hope to see you all here.

and more info will come soon...
I have something cooking.......... see you soon............

We have started the hard work. The plan is ready.

First good news is that brand new asphalt is being applied to the location where we were last year. This is working in progress. It should be ready soon.

For 2008 the City of Amsterdam will be much more involved.

Two day event.

Pro and AM.
Men and Women
Dates to be confirmed

Here we go again.
