Re: Tripleshot takes Hurricane Ridge
Hi everyone. Looks like we have 20 people paid up and ready to ride. I'll have your tickets waiting for you at the ferry at 5:30 on Sunday. Should be so much fun!! John D will drive ahead to the park gates and pay the park entry fee. Please make sure you stop at the gate and id yourself as a Tripleshot riders.
If you have not paid yet and are coming along, just give John $5 US of the Canadian equivalent when you see him on the ferry and and he will pay your park entrance fee along with all the others.
John has a vehicle with co-pilot Greg. You can throw backpacks and other things you don't want to carry on the ride up in the back of the truck.
Here is a note I received from Loretta from Olympic National Park:
We need to insure this event can be managed safely. The group must maintain spacing of no more than four bicyclists in a group while riding, single file. This will allow cars to pass. Riders will need to wear helmets and will need lights for the tunnels. Of course, all rules of the road must be obeyed - including the speed limit, for downhill riders. And although the fee will be pre-paid, riders will need to stop at the entrance station, not ride around it and not pass any car waiting in line.
Sound good? Hopefully this event will go smoothly and can be repeated in future years!

Re: Tripleshot takes Hurricane Ridge
26 return tickets for foot passenger and bicycle have been purchased. I will be there at 5:30 tomorrow morning with tickets in hand. The passenger ticket area does not open till 5:30 at the earliest.
The weather looks ok for tomorrow. Chance of a drizzle in the AM with a high of 60 F. Jackets, leggings and gloves might be nice for the ride down. Don't forget we have a support vehicle that you can put a change of warm clothing in and anything else you think you might need.
We will have water, gator aid crystals, oranges, bananas, cliff bars in the support vehicle. There is also a restaurant and small store at the top.
Is there anything else I am missing? Let me know!!
See you all tomorrow!

Leaving switchbridge at 4:55 (give or take 5mins) if anyone is biking down to the ferry.
Re: Tripleshot takes Hurricane Ridge
Any chance a last minute straggler can be added?

Re: Tripleshot takes Hurricane Ridge
What a day! This is what Tripleshot is all about - a great range of people with an equally wide range of goals and accomplishments. Inspiring to see new riders make the challenge, and veterans like old Dylan and Stephane pushing an impressive clip. And some of Lister's youngsters too! Pretty cool to see. Great job and thanks to John D and Dave S. for organizing.

Re: Tripleshot takes Hurricane Ridge
Go Barton!
Thanks too to Barton for organizing and buying the tickets. What an impressive guy - just recovering from his deer incident, then this Wednesday is right-hooked by a car and totals his bike and bruised all up, and there he is all smiles while cooking it up the ridge... And then he wanted to do it again?!

Re: Tripleshot takes Hurricane Ridge
Sincere thanks to all those who helped out. Special shout-outs to Barton, Dave, Greg, Sig, and Simon (the latter for offering to throw himself on a grenade that luckily never had the pin pulled...inside joke).
Thanks too, to the 26 brave souls who accepted the challenge and "Rode the Ridge"! We had a great mix of newbies, oldies, juniors, and Barton (who was actually singing as he passed Greg and I at the half-way point).
Next year's target: 50 TSC riders.
Cheers,
J.
