Come on, out with it! Who's gonna be there? I'm on I95 heading north bored off my butt while the wifey weaves through DC traffic. A couple days in Syracuse chilling with friends and then we'll be there.

Post up where you're coming from, what category you're racing in (or why you are going otherwise) and where you qualified (if that's your story).

I'll start:
Bruce Richter
Greenville, NC
Spectating
I qualified for spectating at Eagleman

Cheers,

That should be easy to spot. Why the limp?

Cheers,

Been battling injuries for a while. Piriformis seems to be the main culprit.
I never let it properly heal. It was bad all summer but has improved a bit.
I have had a few day of remission so I am crossing my fingers.
Considered DNSing are not doing the run but I am pretty sure I can make it through.

Interesting, I just assumed there would be no rooms available for points - especially if you booked post Calgary. That's okay, I need the paid nights anyways as I am running a little behind in renewing my gold status this year!

There were no rooms available when I qualed and started hunting for a place to stay, but as a procrastinator (and on a hunch), I waited until about 2 weeks out expecting some cancellations throughout the village. Sure enough, I started to see prices falling 3 weeks out and openings beginning to appear that weren't there before. When the Marriott opened up, I used the bajillion points I have to take the sting out of the somewhat unexpected trip to Tremblant.

CL60(guy)...as in Canadair Challenger?

Timothy Carlson will land on Thursday in Mont Tremblant and report for us. With me going to Las Vegas for Interbike on Sunday, it would have meant to be gone for 3 straight weeks. And as Dave Mirra says, I want to be a Dad and not just a Fad. So this week some time with my family.
