thanks. I did the earlier races. I think I did four of them. I have to look at the plaques we won. 2003 I know was one year.

Anyone know where the guy is who took all those photos from past Allumuchy races? I never purchased any of myself at the time. Was trying to track the guy down to see if I can get some. thx

"Am I paranoid?" Yes and No. yes anything can happen and there are freakin nut jobs are everywhere but I refuse to be worried someone is going to try and kill me in the woods. If anything pack some mace/pepper spray or something. A gun? no way.

TOWN CYCLE jersey. new condition. It never fit me properly because I need an XL. Just too tight. as reference I'm 6'2", 200lbs. Someone weighing 190 in good shape could wear it. I maybe wore it 2x. Someone else would enjoy it. $20.00. paypal payment, 3.00 shipping in NJ email me at the...

Thanks for the input, I'll be okay. I would love to get out and race my steel Mojo again. I'll see if I can get it into race shape by then, otherwise I'll bring the new Mojo:D

I'm not racing anyone actually. I'm just riding and trying to get as many laps in as I can. trust me, I'm not bringing home any prize money. :cry:

Nice! I may use it then. I don't get to ride the HT much anymore. thx!:cool:

never ridden up there. Can I get away with a hard tail or should I bring the FS? My guess is FS, but thought i would ask.:popcorn:

Ever since the original promoter handed it off (her name got away from me) it's been more corporate and less organic (if you will). and it really would have helped if it didn't rain EVERY FRIGGIN' YEAR!

in 04 (I think it was 04) There was insane rain and tons of lightning all night. If that was not a reason to call a race, I don't know what is. I can't imagine this should have been called. what a bummer. I was not there this year and I guess I'm happy I missed it.

Cool, thx!

I want to bring my 6yr old. What is there to do for someone his age? He only has a small BMX type bike right now. Hoping to get him into the MTB with me next year.

yeah, I'll try that and see how it goes. looking forward to getting up there soon.:cool:

All good advice. I appreciate the suggestions from everyone. I'll use the gear that I have and start Clipped in (I'll bring a set of flats in case I want to try it) and see how it goes. I'll probably just stick to the easier stuff to begin with and see how BALLSY I get as time goes on. I...

YEah, I agree. Seems like potential for disaster slipping a pedal riding that terrain, and i'm not going back to cages either.;) I also can maneuver the rear of the bike when I'm clipped in while airborne. I've tried just on platforms and it does not work as well for me. I'll try it with...

HERE IS ANOTHER QUESTION... how about Clipless??? There was a time (early on) I never thought I would adapt to riding clipless. NOW I am unsure if i can ride without being clipped in. Does anyone here ride Diablo clipped into their bike? or is it all flat pedals?

thanks for the input. I can deal with trying stuff that is difficult to navigate through. It's making sure I come out the other side in one piece that I find most challenging. ;)

Well, I would normally do that, but it looks like to get a bike rental it will cost 79.00? (I may be wrong) and then the lift pass for the day on top of that. I have everything I need except for a stem. I would rather put that $$ into the stem and give it a go on my bike (as long as it's safe...

GOOD ADVICE! I see what you mean and I'll consider that for sure. I'm a pretty caution person these days, more than BITD. Although some might argue that being cautious may actually cause you to get hurt. (which I actually believe to some extent) I'll see how it goes with the Sherman(while...

I would probably end up getting a dual crown fork eventually. I just would like to build it up with what I have and see how it goes before I made a commitments to upgrades. BUT I don't want to be stupid about it either and really get hurt because I was too cheap to get the right gear. BUT! if...
