We are going to the Hixton HS, but wont have time to stop at Smagical Rock.  Camping Saturday night and the boys will be racing on Sunday in the C class.

Hope to see you there!

2whlrcr,

I am from the Kenosha area and my first name is Mike, but I bought an '04 Sherco 2.9 from a guy in central MN in 2007.  My son Mason has an '08 Beta 80 though....

What's up?

Mike French

Sounds like it was a great event this year.  I went in 2007 and rented a bike (125 Gas Gas) and bought my Sherco about 3 weeks later.....  I want to get Mason down there for the event, but it always conflicts with his wrestling schedule.  I think I remember Phil working the "hills" section that year.

We are headed there April 25th - April 28th for an annual trip with Mason and a bunch of friends.   Great place to ride!  We'll be hitting the GNCC in Kentucky on the way home on Sunday the 29th.  Anybody want to go back?

Nice entry Noel, funny!

If there is  enough interest we will shoot for the 15th  ,just may  do the Bucky it was  fun last year

No races that weekend, so Mason and I will be there.  Is camping a possibility?

Noel, I will probably post the video on YouTube since it will be a rather large file.  It may be a while since I am presently out of town, but I will post a link when I get it processed. Here's a pic until then.

Thanks for hosting the event and hopefully we can launch it again next year.... the Shadow lives!

BTW, I will probably be attending the Trials de Nations on Saturday so tell Phil that Wilbur will be well rep'd in Italy.

Prost!

Hackman3,

OK.  My plans changed a bit due to a clutch hose not fitting (I planned to be there tonight).  Anyway, we are going to the UP tomorrow afternoon for a Harescrambles on Saturday AM and then heading down to the trial in the afternoon (~4pm arrival).  Please tell Noel (if possible) we'll have the Shadow there then ready for launch!  Have him call me if you want.

Thanks,

Mike

Got the mighty Shadow running last night, should work well.  We will just need a battery at the top of the bluff to start it and then it can be disconnected.  Found a small fuel leak from the carb, so it may make the event more interesting.

Noel, do you still want me to bring it?

There  is  a flat way arouind  to the hayfield  that lies on top  it  isnt  real far.  I dont think the bike will be  too good agter 80 ft freefall  but   if we can avoid  insurance worries  it would be   a memorable 5 minutes.  I  can spare  a weak bettery  ,  bring it if u r  coming

OK, I'll bring it.  We need good video to capture the carnage.  So what do we do with it AFTER the free fall?

Really nice seeing the Smage family on stage in Hollywood, great performance!  I was yelling out load when I saw Pat's monster splatter from the worst angle, NBC film crew don't know trials!

What's next?  Time to "one up" last night's show!  Maybe Wilbur needs to be included.....

I have an '83 Shadow 750 that runs, just needs a battery.  I am sure we could find something to throw in there for as long as it needs to run. 

So who is going to drive it up to the top?

Sounds great Noel!  Been looking forward to this event since the schedule was posted.  I plan to come up Thursday night (9-8) to help out with whatever needs to be done on Friday.  Unfortunately, I have to leave Friday night and meet Mason up in Crystal Falls, MI for the D16 HS on Saturday morning (I was out-voted 2-1 on this deal).  We'll be back for the festivities Saturday afternoon and ride on Sunday. 

Are you racing the Endurocross/Trialcross this weekend?  If so, we'll see you down there.  Good luck to the boys next week!

Mason and I will come up on Saturday morning (4/9) and help.  What should I bring?  Chainsaws? Rakes? 

We'll probably camp and ride the event on Sunday.

Mike

Noel,  Thanks for the invite to camp.  I think we will come out with the camper Saturday evening (since we will be in the area during the day for another function), hopefully before it gets dark.  So, if anything needs to be done Saturday night/Sunday morning I can help.  Also, is there a place where we can make a fire?
Thanks,
