It would be cool to get the whole EW forum gang thee on a thursday. I would think the place would be empty.

I would take a day off for that.

let's have a "screw the "man", I'm taking a vacation day to ride" ride day.

I'll be screwing the man FOR SURE! Come on down this thursday Paul!

KW, Aaron???

I have a vacation day in da-bank and so can't imagine a better way to spend it then at Burnt Ridge ( Events ).

The Weather Channel says it's supposed to be in the 80's come Thursday which means cool temps in the morning and by 4:00PM hot. I'm a 9:00-2:00 sorta guy. $Pay me fees and ride until I'm tired.

Q: Will the Snak-shak be open on Thursday, I really do look forward to an-end-of-the-day-burger, sorta a tradition. Like my morning thing "Stop-at-McDonalds-fer-Sandwich-Coffee-HashBrowns" kinda tradition.

perfect brownie mix dirt saturday with a bit of a different layout out back (we weren't goin up the hill). but usually the shak isn't open on weekdays KW.

I would love to Tone Show, but I will be hanging out at the Washington State Building Trades Convention instead. Joy.

I am stoked however for the Mantrip. We are dialed and ready. Did you get the reservations made?

I made the call... never heard back so I ass-u-me... we're good! .... i'll call again ...

Can't you just get a cardboard cut out and plant it in your booth...? no one will notice!

Just got to figure out how to make it vote....

No booth, just a delegate you know.

Anyway, don't have too much fun down there.

Alrighty then, thursday it is

"Screw the man day" tomorrow. I'll be there and am bringing my daughters boyfriend. Should be fun!

Big time fun Paul,

Thursday July 29, 2010 at the Ridge was all that!

I pulled into the parking lot a half hour late only to hear our man Paul complaining about my "no-show". Twas there. Temps were in the high 50F's at 9:30AM with clouds overhead. Track had riders on it but looked kinda gooey so to me - no prob with timing. Apparently not so with Paul.

Paul (#061) wandered over to let me know ... diff layout. I' went slow on lap #1 and then picked it up on two-five. Layout was diff so thanks out to Paul. Didn't stop me from jumping-the-good-jump but gotta admit I have my days and today was one. No jumping the finish line triple. Big HOOT on the up-hill-step-up-table jump though. Some Int's and most pros' were making the huck to up-hill landing ramp just like this ole-timer. Once, twice is all I figure it takes in order to post the truth-of-it here on EW's site. Wahoo!

Weather was good arriving with clouds and temps in 50-low-60's and by 2:00PM had changed to 70F and clear skys. Track was watered in the morning and needed nothing more all day. Only high-sided once in a failed attempt to make a 90er righty corner post triple-down-hill-huck. Made the leap missed the turn. Twas as good as one could hope considering the numbers. No scrapes, no bruises, no pain, no bike damage. I count it as a positive (w/bragging rights)

Yup Ken much fun. Got to show my daughters boyfriend that old guys can be fun and fairly fast :-)

Good times for sure! I loved the changes they made and can't wait until next time... See you at Shougal!
