We raced the DH for the last 2 years and it is one of our favorite courses. Can't wait to hit it up on New Year's!!

Also looking forward to checking out the new NEMA Dual Slalom Course. Might have to find a bike to race this!!!

Can somebody describe the DH course? Rocky, gnar, tunnel-ish, epic? A few of us may end up going but want to make sure its worth the drive and mouth we'll be getting from our gf's/wives.

Fun, short, fast, flowy, berms, jumps, dirt drops, rock jump, log drops (not necessarily in that order).

Plus, there is the brand new Nema Dual Slalom course!

Justin wants to go.. but he also wanted to ride 200mi today (we did like 38.5). i don't think I can deal with the extensive traffic there will be coming home Tuesday night. I'm already exhausted, and it's only Wednesday of this week

You should come anyway. Traffic sucks but is a way of life now. No way I'm giving up my riding because of traffic. I will just whine and cuss like a sailor on the way home (or sleep). PLEASE COME!!!!

I just looked this place up on Google Earth. Nearby, I see what looks like a huge estate about a mile away. Then a wikipedia link shows up on the map. What do I see?
Neverland Ranch.... It's F__king Michael Jackson's house!

Do you think he'll be racing that weekend or just cheering on the Beginner Men's division ages 9-11?
