Default Bumps move uphill...I could have told you that

Still doesn't explain how the bump moves between the time I plan my
fourth turn and the time I'm trying to make it.

I'll be hitting those bumps 28 days from today. Wooooohooooo!

Bahr started his research last year by setting up a water proof camera
to take pictures of a bump run at Mary Jane. “Once an hour on the hour
all day long everyday of the year and then at the end of the year we
take all the pictures and combine them into a movie,”

And these guys have never heard of YouTube? What a bunch of lame-o's.
I want pictures!

Why not? No one is forcing you to register. I found the Summit Daily
News worthy of registering for, I thought that maybe you would too.

No, actually you asked me and I do appreciate your polite tone. I'm
still not sure why you would ask such a thing though. Perhaps I need a
lesson in usenet etiquette, but it seems to me that posting such a link
is better than posting no link at all. It just gives you options. If
you don't like the options then perhaps you could silently seek a
different buffet.

Posting link to a free registration site: FINE

Posting link to a free registration site,

See, that was barely polite but contained a wealth of useful info, and
it did help and it's snowing so by default it is a nice day, thank you
very much.
