Meet outside the mammoth adventure center at the Main Lodge at 8:30-8:45 AM. It's at the base of the gondola over by the rock climbing wall. The gondola opens at 9:00.

I'm in like flin. I have a Frontier with tailgate pad So I can haul all the bikes and others can carpool. Any logging ideas yet?

[stinkyrider]

Logging ideas? Sorry I wouldn't have room for my chainsaw with all the bike gear in the car.

Sorry, just being a smartass. All kidding aside, I was thinking about staying at some El Cheapo hotel like travel lodge off of Main Street or some place on Old Mammoth Road. If we get enough people committed to go, we could consolidate resources and possibly get a small condo at the Mammoth Mountain Inn.

As for travel/carpooling arrangements, I had planned on carpooling with Happy_Gilmore since we work at the same place.

You might want to look at stay and ride packages, you might be able to stay right there for the same price.

Im down for a later trip.

[pmortuary]

Stinkyrider, I asume by the name that's your rig? Have you guys been before? What kind of riding do you normally do?

I'm an all around guy I do SS XC and Race DH. I went last year on my enduro SL and was the best thing for my bike riding. Damn I'm getting excited to go.

Went to Mammoth a couple times last year.

I mostly ride the DH trails and some sidetracks into some of the "XC" trails so long as gravity is on my side.

[BigRedHit]

I am heading up mammoth the weekend after it opens. June 27-29 anyone?

[wrxkid]

thinking about joining you guys. My g/f and I might camp though. Dave, shoot me pm when you have everything figured out.

[2wheel_lee]

hmm...

Oh, and the Incycle crew is always fun to ride with - any of them or all of them.

Maybe it's time to clean the cobwebs off the gravity sled.

Last year's closing weekend was a ton of fun!

wrxkid, on the closing weekend last year, I camped the first night. And while driving around some back dirt roads, I found some really cool roads, some of which were strangely steep...before long, I realized that I was driving around on the ski slopes!!

Yeah I was thinking about camping but didn't really feel like doing it alone. I think the fees are like 25 or so. So for double I get a bed. But if you guys do I might too.

[pmortuary]

Bump

4 confirmed and a couple maybes

anyone else?

[Ironpeek]

If anyone has room for some one to ride up with and share a room I'm in. Can't wait to let the Sunday out to play.

Kevin

[pmortuary]

as long as you can contribute funds I'm sure someone can fit you in.

[stinkyrider]

Bump!

Any other takers? We need to get Ironpeek a ride. Too bad my ride is full.

[pmortuary]

Rooms Are starting to fill up because of the motox in town. Where's everyone planning on staying? I Haven't finalized my plans yet but I think I'll have an empty seat.
