Got you your message. Thanks.

For some reason I didn't get an alert for updates to this thread.

The 1st is looking good for me but I can't do the 6th being a Friday/work day.

Scotty, I second what Bernie suggested and make an event out of your visit. There's plenty of time for people to commit and enough notice to validate points contention. We need to get one up on those Mexicans that seem to have a Slalom event every second farkin month! Ha!

Lets ramp it up and try to get at least 3 more ride days in Sydney before our annual CROSS event.

Comment by Mark Gorman on August 22, 2013 at 21:12: No can do this weekend Still up for the 1st & 6th Start at 12, Anyone else ?

Comment by josh on August 22, 2013 at 11:56: Or this weekend?

RE: Church of Slalom, Just put up an event, you will be sure to have a few show up. Besides, if you don't, no one else will.
