I will be around that weekend and could help out (and run some cones). Ben and Millie will be there to race. Give me a call and let me know what you need.

Congratulations to all of you guys on what looked like a great race. I wish I could have been there to see the drama. It's a good thing I wasn't as I probably would have thrown rocks in front of Weasel's board in the finals (just kidding.) A sweep for pete's sake. Congrats to all, nice going slalom spot.

Hey, can this be considered the first East Coast race for teens, by teens?

The pics look great, and it sounds like everyone had a great time.

Wish I could have been there to see the action.

Hope we get to skate soon.
slalom is good

Karl and Brian, thanks for holding a great race. I had a lot of fun and it was a nice change to be one of the older participants rather than the youngest.

To the Chapmans, thanks for providing some great racing action, especially you Glenn! Also, thanks for the toe blocks... I LOVE them!

It was nice only having 8 people as we all got a lot of skating in. We would race heats again just for the hell of it... can't do that at most events with prizes offered.
