    Purchase your daily lift tickets in the village by the shuttle pick-up, then take the shuttle up to the mtn.

    The Mtn is where your will find everyone, the shuttle will drop you off right where you want to be.

    do that and you're likly to miss the 8am group tho.

    BTW i was just surfing around youtube and found this. Not sure who's it is but Got me thinking.

    We've got nearly 35 people RSVP'd just imagine if we could get a twilight zone berm "train" going with most of the group?

    I just talked to the front desk at the Village. If anyone is staying at there, there will be a shuttle bus that will drop you off in front of the main resort gondola. I'm assuming this is the adventure center as well. This is where the actual Mammoth statue is.
    As far as being bike friendly, the front desk asks only that you keep the bikes on the balcony so the cleaning crew doesn't have an issue with them. If you're on the 1st floor they will make an exception. They also ask that bikes be walked through the hallways. Being as we will be riding during cleaning hours I don't see how any of this applies unless you are bringing more than one bike.

    Hope this clears things up a tad.

    See everyone tomorrow!!!

    My bike is coming together nicely. I should have it finished tomorrow just before I leave. :) It'll probably take the whole weekend to break in and get it dialed.

    Don't tell me that you can't guess! It's only a preliminary build; the new Saint stuff should be here shortly (although I may pick up the new brakes tomorrow before we go). I'm really excited to get on this thing and get it dialed.

    Thanks for re-posting my video! :wave:

    This time I have a real video camera (no helmet cam with it as it's the work camera) so we should be able to get some good footage. I'm looking forward to it! :)

    Bflo, I'm sure one of the other people in our condo will know wtf is going on. at least I hope so, cause I definitely don't.

    See everyone up there :wave:

    Fall is in the air, with Winter not far behind. Brace yourself for that wind chill factor. Lower Rock Creek sounds nice and warm.
