You'll regret you ever laid eyes on that post. This isn't the way to expose your sport. Show some class and keep the soul. Prying eyes painting you as a "junky" malcontent or misfit won't take you anywhere but regretville. I've worked with MTV often and I can honestly tell you they are for the most part low class, low bid egotistical intern types. Tell em to make like a bannana -

Do you participate in living-life-on-the-edge activities such as BASE jumping, street luge, or free running? Or maybe you have a different extreme sport of choice? Either way, we want to hear from you! Is your extreme behavior causing problems in your personal or professional life? Are you addicted to high-risk activities? Have you gotten in legal trouble because of your extreme activities? Are you part of a group of extreme enthusiasts? Do your family and friends support your life on the edge?

If you are currently participating in a high-risk sport and you appear to be between the ages of 18-27, tell us all about you in an e-mail to edge@mtvstaff.com. Please include your name, location, phone number, and a recent photo.

Bonelli Park Race #3 *LINK*

Posted By: Marcus Rietema
Date: 3/16/05, 4: 31 p.m.

The third Bonelli Park race in the 2005 California Championship Series was held this past Sunday in San Dimas. A total of 68 entries competed in six seperate catagories making this the largest Bonelli Park race so far this year. The weather forcast called for a beautiful sunny day but it was not to be. For the second race in a row the event was contested in the rain on a wet track.

Everyone in attendance seemed to take it in stride and made the best of the situation. We had some veteran racers competing who we haven't seen in years including Roger Hickey, Perry Fisser and Dean Salter. More old timers were on the sidelines and looking to make a comeback themselves. We also had a large number of young racers in attendance highlighted by 7year old Tabitha Collins in the Garland Restoration Stock Gravity Bike class and 9 year old Chase Orta in the Classic Style Luge race.

Event promoters Bob Ozman and Marcus Rietema would like to thank everyone who attended and our sponsors including Garland Restoration, Sector 9 Skateboards, One West Apperal, Twisted Cycles, Verizon Communications, Incycle, Covina Valley Schwinn and Coats Cyclery. The next California Championship Series event is scheduled for Saturday April 23rd on the twisty and technical Raging Waters course. We'll be keeping our fingers crossed for sunshine.

Garland Restoration to Sponsor Gravity Bike Class *LINK*

Posted By: Marcus Rietema
Date: 2/10/05, 10: 35 a.m.

The IGSA is pleased to announce that Garland Restoration, Inc will be sponsoring the Stock Gravity Bike Class in the California Downhill Series events. Garland Restoration will be providing a cash purse of $250 for each of the five remaining races. The class will now be known as the Garland Restoration Stock Gravity Bike Class at all California Downhill Series events. Both Garland Restoration and the IGSA believe the $250 prize purse will provide incentive to gravity bike racers to support and build their sport.

The next California Downhill Series race is scheduled for February 19th. Additional races are scheduled for March 12, April 23, September 17 and November 12. All races are held at Frank G. Bonelli Park located in San Dimas, California and utilize two distinctly different tracks. 100% of the sponsorship money that Garland Restoration is donating is being used for prize money. Prize money will be distributed as follows: 1st=$125, 2nd=$75 and 3rd=$25.

After an absence of nearly eight years, the IGSA has returned local monthly gravity races to Southern California. January’s Bonelli Park Revival race had in excess of 40 competitors in attendance. This was the first California Downhill Series race of 2005. Racers compete in Downhill Skateboarding, Street Luge, Downhill Inline Skating, Classic Luge and Fairing Gravity Bike classes in addition to the Garland Restoration Stock Gravity Bike Class. The IGSA plans to announce more class sponsors in the coming weeks.

Spare Equipment for Bonelli!
On 2/10/2005 richard hodkinson wrote in from United States  (128.125.nnn.nnn)

I'm hoping to being a bunch of student to watch, and maybe if Bob and Marcus allow, have a little try in practice at Bonelli. It's a small and friendly course, so seems perfect for little practices if it can be done unobtrusively, and should give a good idea of the friendliness of the people in luge etc.. And I hope we get as great a turnout as last time.

So, If anyone has spare basic leathers, helmets, gloves, luges, buttboards for bonelli, please email me at streetluge {AT-] richardhod d0t com and bring them! IT's to teach people and get them interested, which is what we're all about!
I have one or two items, but not enough!

thanks in advance!!

Rules
On 2/6/2005 DrNo wrote in from United States  (138.88.nnn.nnn)

No offense taken. I only get irritated at having to answer questions about rules when it is obvious the person asking the question has made no attempt in reading the rules first. By all means if a rider reads the rules and still has questions I ALWAYS take the time to help out where I can.

When it comes to racing rules riders must realize there are DIFFERENT organizations ans therefore should be reading ALL rules for each organization and make themselves familiar with the rules for the organization they wish to race with.
