I told you I was planning on throwing some races this year! This one is for the gnarliest of the gnarly, or the ballsiest of the ballsy. I'm not sure how fast it is but the turns are HARD and it is steep (see elevation numbers.) Stakes is high!
-Saturday March 27, 2010 @ 11 AM
-$10 Entry
-2-4 man heats (TBD)
-3 Kick Start
-Helmet and gloves absolutely positively required, I'm not letting you race without them. Sorry, but this spot is just too gnarly. I'll be wearing full leathers and a full face, and I suggest the same.
-Address TBA

Nice, def gnarly. So, is this slalomcross in nature? Cones, no cones, 1 lane or 2? Looks a little "thin" in parts for dual lanes; nice oak trees too for effective head plants. I'm in if there are cones - Yerke dogs...

It's straight up DH but I thought I'd extend the invite nonetheless. We could get some of the gnarliest GS ever here though, that would be interesting. I'd ride Grapey Apes rear and Pink Big Zigs front though. :p
