This got posted over at rotorburn in response to a kid asking what he needed to know before heading to a DH race. As a race oganiser it cracked me up so I thought I'd reshare it.

OK, this is what you need to know:

1. Always stop in the most ridiculous spot possible where other riders can't see you as they approach. Trust me, they'll appreciate it.

Revolution takes on Twilight

hey all. Just got off the phone to JT from Revolution magazine.

He's just heard about our twilight series and was so taken with the concept hes bringing up some photographers with the goal of running a story in the next mag. He want it to focus on grass roots, characters and up and coming riders. All the things that make the sport

Anyway at this stage they are going to aim to get out here for the round on the 19th of January so we need a big roll up to show how popular it is.

Can anyone comment on the Dual Slalom race that was put on by Rocky Trail Entertainment in March ?

Looking to ride/race this weekend but can't do the 4x do to shoulder and big jumps and not fit enough at the moment to do a full XC race.

Was it fun/good racing?
