I was thinking the same thing! Too late to announce but we should do an outlaw at Walker or Park and Ride real soon.

Are you guys still doing Friday night walker sessions?

Also if you don't have anything to do on saturday nights we have a ton of people that meet at East Coast Board Co. in Fairfax and we all go out riding for a few hours usually until like 1 or 2am. We usually ride a garage and a few different hills. Just given you the heads up on that.

No Fridays yet... need to rally the troops.

How about ~3:30 at Walker today? I'll get there a little early and set up - can't waste this weather ;-)

Well, that means you just made about .003 cents off the piece I purchasd to repair my Trackmate, :)

I know it sucks for you guys this year thinking about hitting our race as it is almost mid week and one day if you are thinking about it head up early so we can hit a sweet spot for a few days of cones in another spot we can run anything.

Thanks again for coming up last year and if things work out you'll be back up in a few years when it becomes a weekend event again. Unless we change the datesor the venue. Right now we need the financial contribution and affiliation with our only major sponsor.

Take Care guys and hope to see you this summer at the Farm or Antrim if nowhere else.
Many Happy Pumps!

Yo - DC crew...I'm in town Thursday night 7/3 through Sunday about 5pm. Staying near the Cathedral. Any chance of some pre-Nationals training this weekend? I can only bring one board and limited gear so a nice hybrid would be cool, but let me know if you plan a certain course type and I'll bring that stick.

Yo Floyd, bring something in the middle. We will roll out the red carpet for you. You can Metro it into Alexandria and I will pick you up. We can go BIG or just a training session. Both spots are about 1 mile away from each other.

I'll bring the Fullbag Red Baron (20" WB) and some 86/83 70mm Zigs.

I can get the Metro at the Woodley / Zoo stop.

Saturday day is likely best for me but weather could change that.

I hope we can get it together!

OK - I'm available to skate in the mornings - up until about 2pm - Fri. Sat. and Sun....as long as the weather is good of course...and if the temp is 90+ then I'll pass. If we can do it great; if not, no worries...it's gotta be easy on this trip.

Walker Lane is clear to skate....Rick you can take the Blue Line Metro to Springfield Franconia Metro and we can pick you up. Skate spot is 1/2 mile away. We can also check out Oakwood for a few runs.

Mike - unfortunately, your phone number is on my computer at work in Burlington. Sorry - it was a really bad week. Anyway, once I started packing the two computers and gear I needed to work on this trip, the skate gear just became too much more to take on the plane. I'll have to catch you guys next time...labor day weekend possibly.

Ride on!

Earl - thanks for the offer. I know that's twice now I haven't come through to hook with you guys for some riding, so sorry for that. Next time down (Labor Day?) we'll make it happen.

I didn't realize I could carry a skateboard on the plane un-checked - which I just did to CA - so will do that next time too.

See y'all down on the FARM!

You bet - it's gonna really rock this year, being WR's 50th and all!

...it's not the stick, it's the rider!! ;-)

Actually, I'd have to say I'm faster in tight on the Gecko, but I rode my Fullbag Red Baron in the hybrid, so who knows?
