I'm planning on riding there if the weather is decent. Look for a dark green XL1200S.

I'm going to fill my Camelback with ice water and take the sunscreen with me.

This will be my second year there. I think I'm going to pass on the $15.00 gallon jug of beer. That hill is a bit much to climb up carrying gear and the jug! Especially if you drain a large portion of the jug first!

I left my spot on the hill about halfway through the competition so I could get some shots of the crowd's bikes in the field where we parked. Heard the PA announcer said that a bike went out of bounds at the distance marker where I had been sitting.

How early do you have to get there to get a parking spot in that small field. Really depends on how much sleep I cam sneak in at work Saturday night. Look for my black 08 1200C. It will have lots of Willie G stuff on it and alot of chrome, just look at the pics in my album.

I was thinking about going but after all of this rain the last couple of days it is going to be one big mud pit.

I doubt that the parking field would be muddy. Just a week ago that was over grown weeds and high grass so that should be okay to park in after they mow it.

Anyone know where they have the cars park at. A few of my family members want to go to and they are coming in one car.

plus, it seems to me someone used to have paid parking just south of the entrance.
I haven't been to the hillclimbs since about 95 though
