Oh, well steve.....you're right, that is actually something I could really need, if you know what I mean ;)
But hey, If this and that comes together, I choose what seems to be more valuable to me, and that is riding with the dirty dogs (running after my big balls, not able to cacht them, cause I'm already 20ft away from them). puuuuuuzzzzzz.....!!!!

Haha! Just kidding, but the truth is, I belong in this group and I waited too long to finally ride with all the guys I missed to race this season, including you ;)

I'm off to stuttgart:
freie fahrt
freies beer
freie party!

See you all soon!

It's not about points... ;)

But I'll think about it...

Found a newbie!

Donald, I think I have another amateur:

Andreas Schöneberg

I hope he will be able to come, a good old friend of mine. Got hooked on slalom since 3 months, but he has some talent, that's for sure....

We might have a junior as well: Assanee Meguid is not yet sure if he can make it, but sign him up.

If Dominik is riding pro in this race does it mean he's also riding pro in North Carolina? I can't wait to skate with you guys Heiko and Dom, this time in the USA!

Have fun everyone, the Cologne- Dusseldorf area is the center of the slalom universe.


Dominik- sign Andi up! Bryan and I coached him all summer, he should shred up the race.

whre is the race if it rains ? Leverkusen bridge again ?

Donald Campbell wrote:updates:
if we have rain we will move to a different location and the slalom will be banked then.
no hardcore skatepark action but banks.
so i would suggest that you all leave your supertight boards at home.
also we have another sponsor for the race,namely:vibes store in düsseldorf.
again you can expect good struff for the entrants and a special shirt for the event.
more info to follow the next few days...

sometimes i really wonder how uninformed one colonian is

you got him ramon

by Carsten Pingel
I just wanted to know where to go on sunday! Just a simple question for your entertainment , guys ! :-)

But do the french and swiss guys know where the banked slalom happens if it rains ?

I know where to go !!!!

Posted: Wed Oct 04, 2006 11:05 am
by Donald Campbell
in the case of rain we will proceed to the leverkusen area by car and all the visitiors will be picked up by the locals,same as the last race we had.
remember?
so no worries

again for all visitors:we have enough rooms to stay and we will drive you guys around if necessary in any way-same procedure as last time.

no rain

Posted: Wed Oct 04, 2006 11:10 am
by Steve Hinzen
my personal logic:
it rained at GWRS no.1, so it will not rain at no.2.


today's weatherforecast for Sunday in DaDorf:
NO rain (0 l/m2, risk 19%)
sunny with clouds
max.temp. 17° C

Posted: Wed Oct 04, 2006 12:09 pm
by Carsten Pingel
I prayfor sunny weather , because I want to see the race in Oberkassel !!! :-) Very fast hill :-)

I think Andy won't be able to race, he had a surgery on his shoulder. He felt during his very first downhill contest, but still took 8th place respectable, and I know it won't be his last. Maybe he will try to run on or two qualis, and than we'll see...

yes, I'm riding pro now!

Messieurs les mangeurs de saucisses

As Guillaume doesn't come, apparently we are 4 to come in FredMobil' : Fred, Patrick, Charles and me. I don't know if it's too late for Adel to come with us or not...

Perhaps you could send us via PM or email the exact address to go to the Atelier Pavel or a meeting point?

See you ;)
