The track won't be too bad and Gomer has a pressure washer and we are there for the campfire songs that MX Tuner will sing (nobody tell him I said that ok? :) ).

Bring the bike and we'll tell all the locals that are out on the track...

"Yeah, we were out there earlier but it was too dry for us. You see, when your this fast you can ride on top of the mud and keep the bike really clean. See, mine looks just like new!"

I'm definately much more interested in Manchester, just because I'm not gonna be hitting any motocross tracks.....I know I'm a tree spode ;) Jim I'll drop you a line this week and further your guilt:laugh:

Jim, you have to come, even if it is just to ride Ivan's bike! (Ok, you can ride mine, too). MXTooner will be there with a flywheel weight on his CRF so we can answer that question you had, too.

Every time I pull up the forecast it is different, so I'm not going to look at it again until Thursday.

Has this officially moved to Manchester now? If it has I'm out. If TNT is still the plan I'll decide something Thursday depending on the weather.

Nothing definite, yet. The plan is still on for TNT, I just mentioned Manchester as an alternate in the event that TNT isn't open due to rain. We'll figure something definite out Thursday.

The latest "forecast" from the Random Weather Generator shows scattered storms Friday, clear Saturday, and some showers moving in Sunday.

ANYWAY...if the weather cooperates and we can ride TNT, Ike De Jager will hold a class Sunday morning for those interested. Ike is a certified instructor with the Gary Semics' MX School, a +50 National Champion, and a nice guy, too. If enough people are interested (need a minimum of 6), the class will be $75 each for a 4 hour class.

Bring tools needed to adjust your:
  • Handlebars
  • Levers
  • Rear brake pedal
  • Shifter
One of the first things he does is make sure that your controls are in the proper position. You can't be if they're not.

Make sure you show up with a bike stand capable of supporting you and the bike...he goes over body positioning with you on the bike on the stand.

Also, bring a notepad to take notes.

Please respond if you want to take the class. I imagine he will limit it to 15, maybe 20 people so make sure you let me know ASAP.

If weather cooperates for TNT I would actually be interested in the class. I was already considering coming down for it sometime anyway.

The last weather reports says rain up to Friday, then sunny Saturday and Sunday. Will the track dry up and be rideable? I really don't want to drive down there then everybody bail out to Manchester.

The track will be muddy in the morning unless they have a decent turnout on Friday. However, from the last few times were were there after bad rains the track seems to dry up well when the bikes get on it.

If it stops raining, we will MAKE the track ridable! If it stops Friday, we'll have it in shape Saturday afternoon and by Sunday it wil be great.

Andy, if we do have to head to Manchester, you can ride with me.

Ok, for those that are scared of the mud take a look here...

http://www.tssgraphics.com/motox/spodef/rmdsf.htm

And don't forget to take a look at Gomer's bike...

http://www.tssgraphics.com/motox/spodef/images/spode18.jpg

The year was 1997 and the place was Atlanta... it was muddy and the stories on the net were about a Spodefest. I didn't have a bike but I read about these yahoo's and immediately wanted to be a part. Yes they rode in mud... yes they had a blast...

We will too!

Read the stories and think about how much fun we'll have!

I have a plan, consume massive volumes of OH on Friday night and wake up late on Sat morning. That way Gomer and the boys will have a number of nice lines already cleared for me :yeehaw:

I'll be showing up at TNT on Friday around 6, rain or shine.

ok... so my next questions.

Is there a water hookup available for a pressure washer? What about a shower facility? If water hookups are available but no shower we can use my pressure washer to hose each other off.
