Yesterday out to Pala for the race..TV does that track no justice as it had everything from ruts..sand..elevation..and a steady dose of "Booty Short's"..Wasn't prepared to do all that walking so I parked my old ass in the infield all day..The thing I hated most was the exit plan sitting in the parking lot for over a hour looking at a line of cars that didn't move..I did see the "Vital Mobile" but he had the hot line and was outta there..Overall the racing was great and the track was awesome..Cool

I’m impressed you stayed to the end. As much as I hated walking out while Kroc was leading,
The idea of sitting in that traffic had me hopping n the car halfway through the last moto.

Glad to hear you made it to the race 👍

What makes a race is how many people show up... moaning about what happens when they all leave is just nuts.

We probably walked out at the same time lol. Did you also have to run back to the car because they wouldn’t let an ice chest in?

No! I made my backpack a ice chest and it was still cold at the end of the day 👍

I used a couple of those blue ice things and I stuck my
Drinks n the freezer for a few hours before heading out n the morning. The guy searched my pack before going in and didn’t say a word when he looked inside

Lol I tried getting away with strapping my ice chest/bag to my back and the security said it was a no go. Me and my gf don’t drink so we just stuffed some waters inside the collapsible chair inside the bag. That’s a trick pj205 taught me some years back at Glen Helen 👍

I had one of those portable ice chest/cooler bags with me and they wouldn't let me in with it. OK, no problem. How about I take all the drinks out of it and put those in the backpack. The cooler bag is now my wife's purse. "Sure, come on in!"
The drinks went right back into the "purse" within 30 seconds.

Have to say, Washougal has the most beautiful afternoon for the wait for the lot to clear out. Great cross country opportunities, too, if you're hurried!
