[Biking-L] Dirt Fest

[chevyman9706 at woh.rr.com]

I had an interview for an internship at Lake Raystown about a year ago, which is where this Dirt Fest is being held.  I didn't get a chance to check out the trails but I will tell you that it is a pretty hilly area so there should be some good elevation change on the trails.

I've talked to our adviser Mac as well as Pete of Athens Bicycle to see if they could teach us how to pick up speed by riding smarter. Mac said he'd be glad to show us what he knows, as well as get some other guys he knows to help us out, too. Pete is also happy to help us out, and he suggested we do this in two sessions, where during the first session we talk about setup and position, and in the second session we go to the trails and apply it. I was wondering if you guys would want to go ahead and have the first session soon, while it's nasty outside. This will give us some time to digest it before we start riding a lot in the coming months. What do you guys and gals think?

I talked to them briefly last week and it seems like they could really use us to help clean off some of the roads a few days before. I really think this would be a good way to start some cooperation between clubs, since we can definitely benefit by helping each other out. I'll send more out on this as I hear more from them.
