Title: Re: Elkhorn trial difficulty will be eased from past years Post by: Hare Trigger on June 06, 2008, 03:04:17 PM Noel, could you use some help setting up? I could come out Wednesday night, the 11th, after work.

Title: Re: Elkhorn trial difficulty will be eased from past years Post by: Caballero on June 11, 2008, 05:45:07 AM I'll take the lack of response as a NO, Noel.
Title: Re: Elkhorn trial difficulty will be eased from past years Post by: Hare Trigger on June 11, 2008, 09:38:37 AM Sorry Noel, but I won't be able to be there tonight... I'm cleaning out my basement. :-\
Jorge, what exactly is a "Vintage Friendly Line"? What's different between that and the Novice line you've ridden in the past at Smage's? Or did you ride Intermediate there last year? Title: Re: Elkhorn trial difficulty will be eased from past years Post by: northernnorm on June 11, 2008, 02:28:40 PM Well we do plan a Novice /Int/adv/ex/champ layout and prossibly a youth set of traps. surely Vin will fit somewhere the event is all staked and ribboneds just waiting for thursdays storms to pass b fore stapling line splits in.
Title: Re: Elkhorn trial difficulty will be eased from past years Post by: RL 280 on June 11, 2008, 03:53:28 PM After hearing the weather and news reports from north of the boarder....I was wondering ...reguler or E-Xtra long snorkel......or maybe I should wait a few more days to ask that question
Title: Re: Elkhorn trial difficulty will be eased from past years Post by: Caballero on June 11, 2008, 05:27:04 PM I rode the Intermediate line last year.
Title: Re: Elkhorn trial difficulty will be eased from past years Post by: Hare Trigger on June 11, 2008, 08:43:07 PM Jorge, did you see this vintage trials video link posted over on Trials Central?
http://www.youtube.com/v/wQjS6fWqAYk&hl=en (http://www.youtube.com/v/wQjS6fWqAYk&hl=en) Talk about a tough trial! I didn't see a single guy clean the last section they show. Looked like one guy came close near the end, but I thought he might have dabbed just as they cut away from him. If he made it, he was the only one to make it. Dan Title: Re: Elkhorn trial difficulty will be eased from past years Post by: Caballero on June 12, 2008, 06:55:24 AM Wow! That was cool. It started out looking like an enduro with trials sections in it. That's what I call "vintage lines".
Makes me want to fix my fork seals and ride. LOL See ya, Jorge Title: Re: Elkhorn trial difficulty will be eased from past years Post by: northernnorm on June 12, 2008, 04:50:05 PM I was out last night and mowed everything nice for parking ,then today did a quick ride through to check for neededAll parkingh mods in the ADV line ,before the last 2 inches of rain this aft it was quite good so things change fairly quick . Iweed wacked by our barn which is basically rideable in the rain but to get from here to the woods requires getting within a foot of the road so not sure we can set stuff up in our back barnyard. All parkiing should be out by woods . Main thing is if Sundays rain stays away it will most likely be pretty good.

Title: Re: Elkhorn trial difficulty will be eased from past years Post by: northernnorm on June 13, 2008, 07:44:21 AM nyone know if Rick Condron ever found his bike or has a different one ??
Title: Re: Elkhorn trial difficulty will be eased from past years Post by: uberfraznb on June 13, 2008, 12:10:44 PM So I take it the trial is still on for Sunday, right?
Title: Re: Elkhorn trial difficulty will be eased from past years Post by: northernnorm on June 13, 2008, 02:44:26 PM Yes ,last night we had 2 1/2 inches of rain and I drove out to plate everything and had no problem getting right in just 1 water trap that wasnt bad and will be dry in a few days . The ridge dries off nicely ,basically very rideable right now. I was going to mention peop[le are welcome to camp Saturday night if they would like. Noel
