Can anyone tell me the per-race fee for nonmembers? I can't find the info on the Southridge site.

$35.

If you see a guy riding a SS Sycip and wearing a size-too-small Cal Poly SLO jersey, please say hi!

Anyone been over to scope out the DH? Probably a long-shot due to weather but I guess it never hurts to ask!

Wife just called and told me it's raining in Ontario right now. Hope this doesn't bode poorly for conditions tomorrow.

rain usually helps for xc.. its makes the sand harder packed..
should be fun, as this will be my first race in sport

I predict sunny but cold skies for tomorrow.

We've had pretty good luck with the skies every race day out there this year, here's to hoping it stays that way.

Good luck to everyone this weekend, wish I could make it!!! I'll be jealous but I'm looking forward to all the pics and race reports! It looks like the XC and 4x might be spared the rain but according to channel 7 DH is going to get poured on. Stay safe out there and we'll see you on the 9th of March!

It's going to be a FUN course lots of fun little rock drops and rollers. It starts out to the far right coming down connects over to the top of the saddle then on down bypassing the little jump. Once you get through the saddle up and over it cuts off to the right (rather than straight through) and winds down to the road.One course for all you'll love this one. As soon as I get the pictures up I'll post a link. The lower garden cuts off to the left and around rather than straight through. It poured off and on but not enough to muddy the course at the time.

Ricky, I'm sorry you won't make it (although I'm a little relieved ).

You're going to a bachlorette party???

Well, I'm going to eat dinner, then see what kind of bike I can put together for tomorrow.

Link to course pics:

Kovarik and Meliissa Buhl were practicing with this group nicest ever but have to give them major props. Was waiting for Todd to return with his phone he lost and I mentioned to Mudman needing to bleed my brakes and one of the guys walked over ( name was Clayton) asked if it was a Hayes threw it on a stand and tossed on a brand new caliper since the seals were shot. VERY cool of them (paid them later with bevvies)

A few random shots:
Connecting to the saddle from the start

Looking down the course, close to the top



Early turn

























Sooo green













I guess this time the end of the rainbow was at the Hayes trailer.





Oh yeah, and feel sorry for me and my poison oak
