Strykeforce, Brad, excellent event, the race went off awesomely. Great to see some P-towners, Josh with the one-liners, half the Harris crew (missed you Judy!) and especially watching the newbies start on half a hill in the morning and work their way up to the full course, timer, and even counting cone penalties by afternoon!! Brad's severed arm trophies were sweet!!
I want to again thank my sponsor -- Corey Moy -- for providing a RADIKAL setup for the tight course Sunday.
And sweet vid!! Surprised that didn't go into the YouTube ADULT section with Dano's boobs on prominent display.

John, James, Corey, and all of the Seattle crew who helped put on the race:
Thank You! Very enjoyable race, I will certainly be back if you have another one.
Best things about this race:
1) I didn't do squat to help run it -- instead, I got lots of runs in. 2) The asphalt is perfect! 3) Very challenging courses (tight and really-fast Hybrid)! 4) Free sandwiches and water! 5) Skip drove from PDX-SEA-PDX and I listened to Josh's jokes on the way up and slept on the way back.

Anyone want to make it 400% ????

Cat! Hey, I'm just going to go visit my parents, sister and nephew and maybe go slaloming and park riding with my nephew and either a short trip to our family cabin or backpacking with my sister and nephew. Basically. The COSS race sounds cool.

I realized last night I will be flying to Wyoming May 14th-20th so I won't able to make the Seattle race May 18th. If you guys decide to do any more date changes, then I likely will be able to make it in May. Don't change it just on my account but if a change works better for others, it will for me too.
Thanks - P

Hey THANKS to everyone who showed up and rode, helped cook and arrange food and contributed food and cleaned up and collected cones, etc. Thanks to Pat for his timer efforts.
That was a Great time, it was kinda nice having a smaller group this year compared to last years huge turnout(which was neat to have but I'm not sure I want it to be that big every year). I had a great time actually riding as well as cooking and newbie-clinic-ing.
It was great seeing everyone and talking with everyone. The big surprize was seeing Aaron Burke and Kathleen(? is that her name, I'm so bad about that) and their kid.

Great day fellas-- Poliwog, you've pulled it off again.
Tay, Josh, Mark and Pete awesome you could make the trip, missed you Judy and hope to connect in Lakeland-- same to you Darrin Moy!
Congratulations Cory on your new little 3-week old skatin' pardner Penelope!
Mr. Chewning your persistence on the timer was appreciated, running up and down the hill to troubleshoot, this event's a great Chill Session and everyone had an awesome time.
Sheldon you're a natural, heal up the hip, and check out the Lakeland hill soon!

Martin! Hey! Are you back in the USA or still "Across the pond"? Or elsewhere?
Is Price still stuck outside the USA?
Say "Hey" to Sam Gordon and Price and the rest of H.M.S.S. for me if you see them.

The People's Slalom Saterday Morning Update for Sunday

Comrades, the weatherburo at www.weather.gov is stating today at 10:40am that there will be a 30% chance of rain in Salem after 11am and 60% chance of rain Sunday Night. So what does that mean?
It means: The BBQ is still officially a "GO" since we've put it on with worse forcasts in the past.
MY LEAF-BLOWER IS DEAD, ANYONE WHO BRINGS A LEAF-BLOWER WILL BE A HUGE HELP!!!! There has been a lot of rain and wind in the last week so I expect the hill to have a lot of twigs and such.
Also remember those CONES and CHALK and PARK DECKS just in case.
Long Live the Revolution! - PZ

As of right now at 2:20pm, the weatherburo at www.weather.gov predicts a partly sunny/cloudy day for Sunday with rain waiting until the evening so what does that mean?
The BBQ is a "GO" for Sunday April 27th 2008!!!!
REMEMBER TO BRING CONES, BLOWERS, BROOMS IF YOU HAVE THEM.
ALSO- BRING YOUR POOL/PARK DECKS just in case we get kicked out we'll go to Aumsville or Newberg, every year our ally back at the maintanence office on weekends is working less on weekends and the new weekend staff are less familiar and less friendly toward us. So far we have been lucky though.
If the weather changes between now and then significantly worse, I'll post a change.
Long Live the Revolution! - PZ
