    Sounds great but I don't have any pads so I can't go. Guess I'll race the BMX Nationals in Lancaster this weekend.

    Just duck tape a few old tires around your knees and elbows and you're good

    Thanks for the update!

    Here is the email that I sent them:

    To: [email protected]

    So sorry you had to cancel the event. Just a suggestion, you might want to advertise sooner next time. I am on your mailing list and got the mailing last week.

    For future reference, many of us adults would love to come out for a day of riding. There really aren't enough trails available to make a weekend of it or justify an overnight stay. There are many of us who have come out for the races held my SRC and we love your facility and wonder why you don't offer some 1 day events.

    Thanks for the feedback, Nancy!

    We definitely knew we were under the gun to pull this off; we'd sent a postcard and email, but the mail list and email list aren't necessarily the same. It is our intention to give this another shot and get it on people's calendar sooner!

    Hope to see you here next time.

    Debbie

    Sounds good! I would have only been able to make it up on Sunday, and $50 to ride from 9am - 2pm was a little steep.

    I was thinking the same thing. I would be down for a day trip if it were a little more reasonable.

    Obviously you have never ridden there. It is worth much more than that to me. So much fun!!!!
