Are you talking about the lifts at Big Bear? They're already open, I was up there today, go and enjoy!

With all the vehicles with mtb's on the heading up, I'd say they were doing some brisk business.

Saw some other riders up there, but not like it used to be. At one point, there was a group of about 20, all on rental bikes, other than that, not a lot of action for the lift operators. Sure was fun to do six runs, and be done by noon though!

No DH bikes. I put two rings back on the Enduro, and had no problems, saw them turn away some kids on DH bikes.

There are plenty of xc trails to ride, but I prefer something with a little more of the DH flavor. If I was to bring my xc bike up there, I would probably opt to save my money I would spend on a lift ticket, and ride my bike up the hill, but that's just me.

I was up ther last weekend and totaly had a great time. And yes I put my XC bike on the lift three times. Want to go back soon and take some of the singletracks that I passed on the way to Pineknot. Good Fun.

Dang it! I misread this.
I thought it was "Beer opening day???"

Now that's a Holiday I could get behind!
