Start time and penalty and Gate trial
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.

Re: Start time and penalty abd Gate trial
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.

Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial
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

Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial
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

Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial
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.

Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial
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?

Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial
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.

Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial
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.

Re: Start time and penalty and Gate trial
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.
