plainlazy84 Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Sounds like a plan for next year when I will have some money. I competed in the Test of Metal 2004 and these guys know how to put on spectacular, crowd pleasing competitions . It would be worth the trip to ride the North Shore alone, its mental.
