Entry Fee: $20.00
Contest Info: THE COURSES: As in previous years, they're gonna be "slalom." Not too tight, not too wide open, just slalom. Mellow S-turn hill, decent asphalt, push start only. Trackmate timer.

FRIDAY, MAY 23, we plan an afternoon/evening outlaw session at "Spot 2," a slightly steeper hill near the east end of the park. Single lane, no timer, just for fun. Show up around 5:00 and we'll ride until we get tired or (hopefully not) kicked out.

After Friday's jam session, anyone who's hungry can join us at O'Connell's Pub (excellent burgers and fish 'n' chips) or Tin Can Tavern (home cookin' and a variety of beers in--you got it--cans only). And if anyone's still interested, we can hook up a downtown parking garage session. Elevator up, ride down, in two or three bust-free garages.

SATURDAY, MAY 24, we plan a single-lane jam at "Spot 1," the same hill as previous years. Course will be a hybrid, with spacing anywhere from 6 feet to 20 feet, emphasizing speed and fun--makeable for newbies, challenging for experts to go fast on. Take as many runs as you want; fastest time wins. Show up around 10:00 a.m., and we'll start actual racing around 11:00 or so. We'll race for as long as people want to ride, after which...

BBQ!!! Free food, free soda, bring your own "other beverage of choice." We have reserved the Turkish Pavilion at the top of the course all day Saturday (and Sunday too this year). Chill out, relax and enjoy some food and drink until park closing time (around 10:00 p.m.)

SUNDAY, MAY 25, we plan a dual-lane race. Cones will be set straight (no offsets) but will follow the natural curves of the road, which bends right, then left. In honor of our sixth year doing this crazy race, cone spacing will be 6 feet 6 inches. Bring your small-to-medium board if you've got one. You WILL wiggle!!!

TROPHIES: Once again, Paul Graf has come up with some unique trophies for the top finishers. 100% hand made and 100% unique.

RACE LOCATION: Tower Grove Park in south St. Louis. See map link above for directions and locations.

SURFACE: Good asphalt, good runout at the bottom--little or no footbraking required. The streets are very slightly crowned and not particularly steep, but you won't be hurtin' for speed.
1st Place Finisher: Jeff Goad
2nd Place Finisher: Jonathan Harms
3rd Place Finisher: Tod Oles
Overall Results: "Garage Cross" race
