APRIL 14 th Trials Clinic

   On Saturday the weekendof WOTAs 1 st event of the great 2012 season we WILL be having  a 3 hour school .The format will be slightly casual as no one will get made a fool of instead we will all have  a fantastic afternoon. What the plans are is to gather at 2 pm  -or 3 pm at the latest ,with Myself and the Riding Shows guys being the teachers ,we will start with intros  and then go over some bike setup issues ,then a quick overview of some things that are needed to have success at the particularly loose surface we are faced with at Smagical Rock. Then we split into 3 groups and focus on some goals and techniques for around 50 minutes . Then gather up with a break and switch groups around. This is NOT a formal function rather a Smage Sherco Sales llc  function with seperate liaability waivers and  a semi voluntary $50 gratuity for first family member then $25 for each additional,and that should include  a signed piece of Wilbur Wear if Phils stock is adequate . I would greatly appreciate a heads up if you are at least 51% likely to join us. I need to know some numbers  so to properly devote prep time. The preffered method is an E mail to <6smagesbrayrd@elknet.net> cheers.Noel   If things go well we  may have a big carbo l0ad spaghetti feed or some grilling on the house .and in the house/cabin

  Right now I am not real geared up for Youth and  under 125cc bikes, with as much as 1/2 the terrain set up as sections  it means  that some of the riding may take place at the top of the bluff . For now I am thinking youth can just tag along  and at some point a seperate attempt can be made more specific for them. Jim mnaybe you could do the YOUth  or K  Hub?

just a silly question, if your planning on riding to top, is that for the upper class only? because I am not sure if you have a (easy) way to the top for the lower class riders, intermeadate , novice. in that terrian it will be difficult to get them to the top unless you have a easy way there??  just asking.

 Yes more for the upper levels  ,although I know of 2  ragged Int to  ADV level youthful crazies that were just up there with us found a w ay to the top in 3 different locations ,it has gotten more rideable with help from erosion and tire traffic. The other alternative is to use very small pieces of already set sections.   Basically we will figure out what and where  when we get our participants assembled.  Maybe pHILL on the hills  Pat on the sPlATs  and Noel riding Knolls.

I see (on facebook) that the boys are going to the UP Michigan on Friday for a show........Are they still planning on being at Mauston this weekend??   

  Yes  otherwise it would be foolish to advertise the school  , as long as the cube van doesnt let them down  they will  get to the rock Sat midday.  also toting  a nationally famous KTM team member who s  identity will be un released at this time. Rumor has it he or she will ride  a class at the trials.    we will see.  For after school feast I am thinking of pizza delivery .
