Track will be open both Saturday and Sunday. With all the rain the track should be perfect both days.

Thank ALL of you for your support at Mabton! A lot of you have missed the most assume riding conditions I have ever seen at Mabton this last month! It has been perfect and VERY few riders. Do not understand why anyone would rather ride 15 minutes out of an hour, when you can ride 7 hours straight at Mabton! Randy Dillman

2.5hr from gods country (N.Bend WA) sounds doable. Got a bike to ride (red-wonder machine is back and happy), patched up the little squirt (CRF250, can't have enough taps-n-helicoils) and she's ready to go. Guess it's spring time for us westies and time to head east once again. At least for a while.

Wahoo! WA MX

Randy it's kind of a running joke here. some of the more wimpy riders that do not race formed the MXPPA (Moto X Professional Practicers Association) So they can be a part of something. Big Grin

LOL, yeah Randy, we all can't be super fast racers like Paul. Those folks who wake up early in the am, climb out of their race van (or hillbilly hotel) sip their java out of a thermos, and then tear into the track for atleast 6 minutes of practice and 12 minutes of motos. The folks left out, who just can't perform at this level, are left to join the MXPPA, where we just ride all day. It's a solemn existance, but when we have heard too much talking at the trailer or under the EZ-UP, we just hit the track again. No need to wait for another moto. When all else fails, you just ride.

Some day It will all be clear, Right Paul? Wink

Sounds to me like Mabton is right up the MXPPA's alley!!!

Ty, looks like I am going to make a run at it! Big Grin Randy G. is going to roll... I'll try to get ahold of Wes too but I will have to leave by 1:30-2 o'clock. Considering the shape I am in, this should be plenty...

What time do the gates open?

Mabton is a-kin-to my ancestral hood. I see the name and I have a magnetic attraction.

Great (x-gens) great-grand-pop was buried that way back then.

You say Easties-I-say-Hood! It's in da genes.

My Westies story on the other hand is well..another and both pale compare to genealogy and this ole-farts-blood-linage.

Argh! only wished I'da looked it up sooner.

Went to mabton today and had a good time! about 2h 15min from Maple Valley (with a hemi... Cool) I would reccomend this track to anyone, unless you are only interested in jumps. The track had some really fun terrain, fast stuff, slow stuff, a little technical stuff, some jumps, all in all equalling for good times with good people. The "big track" is HUGE at 1.7 miles and it seems longer!!! so I couldn't even come close to giving you an accurate play by play. However, I did a little video work and caught #193 for a lap (from afar) which I will post later (once the disc is full)...

Check it out! Big Grin

So sounds to me like I should get a life time membership in this MXPPA! I would fit right in at 55 years young! Love setting,talking,eating,a very little riding and did I mention beer drinking!

Is there anyone out there who has a lot of expirence with setting up a water system? We need help at Mabton!
We have our pond now,I have a pump system,but we need some really good advice on a layout that would give us the best bang for the buck!
