    Various stuff kept me away from Wisp (and, actually biking in general) for most of the summer, but I definitely plan on getting up there a bit next summer. Seems a no brainer since my folks have a place 10 minutes away.

      Nice! Thanks for the crash space offer SC...might have to take you up on that. When does the season usually get going, April or so?

I know I'll have a season pass for the WISP next summer MarsB probably will too. You can always crash in Morgantown which is 45min from wisp and an hour to 7 springs.
        And 10 minutes from Baker's Ridge!


        Particle, I might be hitting Ray's up during my Christmas vacation (12/21-12/30). You gonna be around? Good opportunity to add some photos to this fine thread.
        Remind me. We'll send him a red cap and a Speedo.

            Absolutely! Drop me an email, we leave for UT 12/29 but otherwise I'll be here. I might be going up there on Monday, will post pics for sure if I go.

              Bakers, Coopers there are alot of great rides close to Morgantown. Plus a couple nice DJ's and rhythm sections at White Park.

              I think Wisp opens up last weekend in May, not sure though. As for the x-country riding, I tend to be in a kayak from march to may so don't have any experience with trail conditions that time of year.

              MarsB and I were also talking about taking a Rays trip this winter. be fun to hook up with some of y'all

                Made it up to Ray's yesterday for my first time there, had a blast. I was too busy riding to take pics.

                Was it the mind-blowing thing it'd been built up to be? Nah, but still very very cool. Loved all the options for progression they have. Some of the stunts were just silly hard. Most were challenging but doable. Even the beginner room had lots of fun stuff to play around on. Dialed in my x-ups on the foam pit which was cool.

                We should definitely plan a maggot trip up there this winter, it's about 2hrs from my house...not too bad.

                                ^ That trail sucks. I mean, it really, really sucks. The views are horrible, the trail is way too smoov, and the last .098 is the worst piece of trail I've ridden...EVER!!!

                                I know Lph will agree with me, especially about the last part.
