Testing the waters.. 2nd Gorge downhill event ?

A few people have been asking about getting a 2nd down hill style race at the Gorge this year. Dave and I are considering it but want to know how many would be up for one more points series race this season. Would be in November some time.

So speak up, who's in for another run?

Were you expecting anyone to say it's a bad idea?  ;^)

 

Go for it guys, just give us as much notice as possible.

Hows about BNS cutting us a sick deal on our sanction fees as this would be the 3rd even we punched out this season? Come one, you know yo want to!

We really need a better sollution for the shuttle there. Rain pretty much screws that shutte over. Its a cool little hill for sure and the track could be even better with some more work.

This is getting interesting. If I knew we'd get 25 people I think we'd go for Gorge 2

I know of an alternate shuttle route.........little longer but not as muddy or steep.  Fly me home from Sask and I'll show ya around?????

Not going to happen I'm afraid.  But you raise an interesting point that I think I'll investigate.  We've got a few different RDs hosting multiple events.  I'll see what I can come up with for 2011.

PJ - there could be a way around this...

09, what's an RD?

Race Director

^ Yup.

No 2nd race folks - at least not for points. Maybe a just for fun race some time thou. Perhaps once it snows :)
