Looking for a Ride?

If you're like me Im looking for a ride to the US Open at Diablo Freeride Park on the week of May 22nd- May24th. As now I dont have one, and there's no easy way of getting without a car. Gerald just informed me that he is trying to arrange for a Shuttle Bus from Brooklyn or NYC to Mountain at a reasonable rate. This Shuttle Bus is open to anyone looking for a ride for 15 riders, first come, first served even if you dont have a bike and want check out the US Open first hand. The Shuttle Bus will able to handle 15 riders with their gear and the bikes go into the attached trailer. The driver is CDL certifed and insured.
Even if you drive you should consider taking the Shuttle Bus, since you wont have worry about driving back when tired, fatigued or injured and take risk of driving off the road.
So you're still looking for a ride call Gerald at Racer's Edge, (718)531-3100 and tell him that you want to be on the list for the Shuttle Bus the weekend of the US Open.

Ray’s Indoor MTB 2nd Annual Women’s Weekend

 dirt rag weekend

Ray's Indoor MTB in Cleveland Feb 20 – 22 for the 2nd Annual Women's Weekend.

Friday session is women-only until 4pm then it's co-ed for the rest of the weekend. Women get half price entry Saturday and Sunday.
 
Last year there were women of all skill levels and disciplines riding.  There range was a brand newbie (never been on a mtn bike before) to Jill Kitner (4X and BMX champ) teaching Susan Haywood (XC champ) how to jump.  They'll have clinics if you want some instruction.  Raffle at the end of the day Friday.  Demo bikes in addition to the parks killer rental fleet.  (Which includes two Supercos!)
 
If you've never been to the park, they have a terrific variety of "terrain", XC loop, pump track, bowls, jump lines, foam pit.  All of which (for the most part) accommodates all  skill levels. Ray's also has a great deal with Holiday Inn and a shuttle service between the airport, the park and the hotel.
