I'm curious how come you guys don't goto MX207 Besides the distance factor? The track is a lot more fun. Plus Crowhill doesnt have too many far reaching jumps

mx207 rules but it sucks driving there

**typeone** · 07-02-10, 11:44 AM

yeah, i'd really like to check that track out some time, Justin and Dave love it too, but 2.5+hrs one-way is tough unless it was a 2-day overnighter.

I believe you can camp there on weekends?

There's a couple of campgrounds within 15 minutes of the track. Can't remember the names right now.

Yeah, it's in the middle of the woods, if you can't throw a rock and hit a camping spot, leave the WalMart parking lot and try again. (Or if you're in a camper, put it in park and snooze it up.)

Dave and I usually crash at a Marriott something-or-other. About $100/night - WELL worth it. 2 day MX207 and I'll take the comfy bed thank you very much. We would ride 10-5, then 10-2 and travel home.

Let's plan a NESR event there soon - anyone's riding level just elevates, believe me. Crow hill comparatively is like sandbox. Not that I don't have a lot of learning to do at CH, but the most disappointing part about it is the unpredictability in jump faces and overall conditions each time. I'm, uh hem, at the age where I prefer predictability and smooth riding throughout. The jumps are much, much better too. I'll jump 2-3x as far/high at MX207 than I would at CH, just because of the predictable faces. Gap jumps and doubles I wouldn't even consider at CH, I'll hit with confidence.

Just my .02
I'm in for tomorrow - looking forward to seeing you guys.

**typeone** · 07-02-10, 05:34 PM

cool, see you guys there. i should arrive around 930, lower lot.. .

**BLACK SQUIRREL** · 07-02-10, 05:41 PM

I will be there at 11ish

**BLACK SQUIRREL** · 07-03-10, 05:19 PM

Good riding with good Friends, Progress is made on the "Flying Squirrel" Project.

**typeone** · 07-03-10, 06:48 PM

agreed, great day on the Hill

felt much better than Thurs (although my back is junk)

goodTimes all around.. .

**Paul_E_D** · 07-04-10, 05:15 AM

Phew. Nothing like a few days on a paved track to make you rusty on an MX bike. I felt like a newbie for 2 sessions. Finally got a little relaxed by the last session. Great company, great time. Good to see the squirrel flying again.

Hmmm... Got home and noticed my rear was flat... Then pulled out the road bicycle, and the rear tire had an S-curve in it... FML

booooo, that sucks.. . was the flat from CH? those rocks that seem to get exposed later in the day have bit me twice. i went up a little in air pressure for Sat, didnt want another pinch.

**Paul_E_D** · 07-05-10, 07:52 AM

Musta been. I don't remember tagging a rock, but there were some hard edged bumps for sure. I was running 12 lbs. I think I'll go up to 14 for the track...
