YES. I CAN'T WAIT!

Just signed up!!!! HOly crap this is gonna be fun!

I wish it wasn't during the middle of the week. Kinda tough to miss a full week of school.

Buffalo Bill is 2 days afterwards if you can find a ride (and it's only $89 to fly back from rado)! There is no other week of the year I would put above Ditch Slap, May Long Week is as close as it gets!

HEEEELLLLLLssszzzzz yeeAUUH! Just signed up, can't f****** wait!

Just curious when is everybody thinking about heading down and are you guys gonna come back Sunday night after Buffalo Bill DH or Monday? Can't wait to skate my first ditch!

I dunno when I'm coming back but I'm STOKED! I get out of school the week prior, best way to start off the summer I can imagine!

I think I'm flying back Monday morning. Hard to say when shenanigans will end Sunday!

yeah I was thinking Monday was the safe bet...now to find a ride from NM to CO...

Trying to find a ride up to BBDH, but I checked and you can get a flight for 59 bucks (plus taxes) and they don't charge for the second bag. Then it would be easier to find a ride around town. I checked out rental cars and they wanna rob you to drop off the car in another state...over 600 bucks for just a couple of days...ouch. Is it May yet?

Looks like Amtrak has a train from Lamy, (near Santa Fe) leaving around 2pm and arriving in Denver @ 9:45 for $79. Otherwise start posting to find travelers from NM to Golden CO.

Hadn't thought about a train...I did check Southwest Airlines though and after taxes you can fly from ABQ to Denver for 69 bucks with no baggage fee. I would assume there are some Denver locals going to the race that could help a couple skaters out to get around once we are there?

Oh and do I need go to the silverwiener site to find people traveling up or in Denver?

try frontier. Theyy're based in denver i think and can be really cheap sometimes

Yes, i'm in. I'll be doing AZ, NM, CO or LA (CA), AZ, NM, CO.

I can't wait. It has been so long since I have rode sweet sweet ditches. I have never riden in AZ or even been in CO besides the airport for a couple hours.

So far I don't have rides but I will have flights as soon as I figure out if Louis and chip and I can attract more people either with cars in la that want to do the Outlaw in AZ and then the Dizzle slizzle, you dizzle?

I think I'm going to be flying down to Pheonix with Casey and whoever else, I still need to see when all my finals are and make sure I don't have any on Thursday or Friday.

I wanna do the outlaw, I have a place to stay at my aunts house in Phoenix.

hell yeah Huey! That's 8 Portlanders headed to Ditch Slap this year. I think Robin and i are gonna fly in to ABQ on Friday the 30th of April and leave exactly a week later on the following Friday the 7th. I think I'm gonna pass on the AZ and CO racing mostly because of $. Can't wait! We're flying Southwest since there's no bag fees.

Ditch Slap is now 2/3 full up, and we'll start the waiting list when we hit 60 riders.

YOU could be the Last Slapper! Act now and receive a special Jon Huey autographed copy of a picture of...YOU shredding the Gnar right here in Abq, NM! That's right and as an added bonus you'll get bragging rights to all of your friends who end up on the waiting list and have to listen to your endless stories about what they missed.
