Title: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: northernnorm on April 01, 2013, 07:45:19 AM Ive found a number of people are going to the Supercross in Minn,Sat night IF we had the old 12 noon start time a FEW of them MAY be able to make it down to ride from MN ,but with the 10 am start and ridged late penalty I think we will lose 1 to 6 possible entrants, another bummer with the scheduling. Probably be tough to push start to at least 11 am because that wont guarantee a better outcome anyway. Also when we get out and set up sections next weekend it would be good to know if many people are wanting to do the gate trials on Sat aft. Maybe we could save some work by using taped boundaries for normal sections and run them backwards with the number value plates taken down for Sunday.? That would also leave more unused terrain for Sat messing around ,practice.
Title: Re: Start time and penalty abd Gate trial Post by: club95 on April 01, 2013, 11:55:01 AM My 2 cents...10 am too early and noon too late. 11:00 am works best....for me!
Would be in favor of noon at Mauston if that would make it attractive to some of the SuperX attendees. Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: northernnorm on April 01, 2013, 02:17:00 PM The 10 am Sunday is most geared toward 2 day events which a vast majority are, SO except that people would get home later I see no harm in asking Hubers for an 11 am START ,GOOD THING I DIDNT DO 1ST WEEK OF THE MONTH WEATHER SERVICE IS CALLING FOR 20 DEGREE NIGHT S UNTIL Friday. wtf REAK
Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: Nursehuber on April 02, 2013, 05:12:01 PM Kevin and I are not the bosses. We check with Doreen and Dave when decisions need to be made. We are not against changing the start time to 11:00, since this is a one day event. We would like input from other members, but we don't have much time. Please let us know by Friday so we can get the word out.
Happy Riding, Shari and Kevin Huber Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: northernnorm on April 02, 2013, 06:29:05 PM My vote is for 11 as it will also be a bit warmer by then . It may not gain a single rider but I see no harm in posting that as a start time, those who miss it will be there earlier and have a bit more time for warming up ,etc. We will keep it somewhat short and simple so it doesn't run past 3;30 or 4 . How bummed would Kevin be if we end up all set up before he gets there . We could surely leave 2 or 3 spots unmarked .I will post on Sun night ore Monday what our progress is ,then he can decide what day to come up next week. Have fun in TN its like 70 or more degrees Ive seen.
Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: khub on April 02, 2013, 08:52:02 PM You don't have to save any setup for me. If you do get all them done this weekend, I'll use the time next week to start clearing areas at Mt. Road. Could you also post how soft the pits may be and if I should be worried about getting the camper in and out?
Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: northernnorm on April 02, 2013, 09:05:40 PM I am a bit concerned about too many big rigs IF it rains midweek for 3 days like forecast says it could be campers will have to stay on gravel on road . We will see. R u ok with AN 11 AM START AS a single day event it will allow people to get tjhere easier if not staying over.
Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: JVoigtlander on April 02, 2013, 09:54:06 PM I thought that Kevin was the VP and Shari was the President,,,, so that to makes you too mostly in charge! LOL!!! 11Am is ok with me ! if anyone will be there this sunday I will come out to do some set up with sections if anyone else will be there to help.
Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: JVoigtlander on April 02, 2013, 09:56:55 PM hey the gate trials thing is only for sat before the event right???? or is that a new thing for mauston???
Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: northernnorm on April 03, 2013, 07:53:57 AM Big Jim I will be around Thursday through Sunday eve,so come on up Ye s the gate trial is a non-sanctioned fundraiser plan to run it Sat around 3 pm will use 3 sections backwards and post point values (gates) that will be ripped down afterward. if more than 10 people show we divide into 2 or three teams. Pat is wanting to stop at Mt Rd thursday and ride ,is that OK or how do we confirm.
Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: Hackman3 on April 03, 2013, 08:25:35 AM I work this weekend ( 5th, 6th and 7th) so I can't make it up to help set up. I am off Monday, Tuesday and the Friday, Saturday and Sunday of the event so if help is needed on those days let me know.
Mr. V.P. if Mauston is complete and you come to Baraboo to work let me know too, I can meet you there to lend a hand. As far as the start time goes......I'm good with what ever is decided. Just make sure it's known. Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: northernnorm on April 03, 2013, 10:22:04 AM Andro do you want us to clue you on what time Thursday Pat will go to Mt Rd if it is ok w/ Mantheys? I would like him to have spotter ,not sure on timing maybe by noon? XCool you can make the event ,do you like right or left turns better I can design a sec just 4 u

Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: northernnorm on April 03, 2013, 02:38:22 PM That's weird cuz the brakes on the right my lefty is the besty escp w/ a hop Tommorrow we(Pat and I ) head up separate vehicles ;I am hauling 800 sq ft of t& g aspen for cathedral ceiling so he will have my bike. Depending if I get going much earlier than he plans to go he may end up solo out there. So Ill post in morn when we know should be a nice day I see 60 degrees Wowie Zowie
Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: Hackman3 on April 03, 2013, 07:14:49 PM I maybe I should rethink that ::) seeing that I was doing a right handed cross hill turn when I fell and broke my colar bone. lol maybe make them lefties instead.
I'll check here in the AM to see whats up. I think you should get an early start so you can come down and ride too. Guess I should get the bike out of the moth balls and make sure it still runs. Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: JVoigtlander on April 03, 2013, 08:39:50 PM Hey Noel, I talked to Pat, he text me and asked me already , I checked with the Mente's and he said it is good with him but the snow may be deep in the woods yet! but your welcome to come check it out!! I wouldnt park in the fields it gets mudddy and very slippery there! LOL! just park up by the farm drive. have fun .

Dave Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: Hackman3 on April 04, 2013, 08:17:00 PM I was at Smage rock today checking things out and watching Pat get some practice in. The snow on the south side of the bluff is gone. There is some frost under the leaf cover but hopefully that will be gone by the event weekend.
Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: khub on April 05, 2013, 03:28:43 PM Since we have heard nobody against the change in start times, we will start at 11:00 at Mauston. Riders meeting at 10:30
Title: Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial Post by: club95 on April 07, 2013, 12:57:20 PM At the rock on Friday. Good time. Riding and set up went well and was fun. However...........looking at weather this morning, may have to put snow tires on the trusty Beta for next Sunday >:(
