it's three weeks away (july 10-13) and i haven't seen any promo or advertising. is it just me or does that seem a bit odd? is it still happening? anyone know of any locals that have UCI points to qualify?

i don't know about any of you, but when the DH was held in '01 (canceled in '02 due to ground conditions?), i had a great afternoon sitting at the rock drop and cheering for all the locals.

you bike up mtn. hwy, stash your rig near blueberry, hike in and sit there with a beer and watch some rippers, then ride all the way home later that day.
