 Plattekill is still nuts, but if you know your way around (or can hook up with someone who does) there's plenty of stuff to keep busy on without going nuts.

As much as I love seeing Platty on Pinkbike, what's with the lack of coverage of the Super-D, Enduro, and Overall? The text makes no mention of the enduro or Super-D results; in the video there's no footage of the Enduro and minimal footage of the Super-D.

The weekend was pretty epic; it really was a great showdown with 3 types of races happening in two days. It would be awesome to show the PB community just how awesome it was.

 Nice to see the place dry for the races. Haven't been in awhile. Heard it's not as insane - that's a good thing for us lesser guys.
