Cliff Coleman was in Huntington Beach today, spreading the stoke of his slide techniques with our good friend (and radiologist) Dr. Tushar Patel. This is his first day of sliding, and by the time I got to the hill, he was already stylin' the heelside slides that bear Cliff's name. The Master and the Student together on the hill, and afterwards with great Thai food and Thai ice-tea. Good stuff.

Seattle and your arrival
On 5/15/2006 Dan Farmery wrote in from United States  (199.181.nnn.nnn)

O.k I have the Penthouse on hold for the family coming up. As many that need a room wednesday and thursday night have one. It has quite a bit of floor space at the room rate is 45$ bucks per night or so after tax so its a steal plus it comes with a free breakfast in the morning. Its good to be the concierge.
The only deal with the hotel is YOU GUYS WILL need your own credit or debit card to get the room. I can reserve it but I can't stay in the hotel or pay for it because of Best Western rules that I'm also employed at the same hotel. I have the reservation on hold under "Famery's Family"

The rides for Cliff, Noah, Eli and one other passanger whos name escapes me right now. I can't find a ride from Seattle to Danger Bay But I will keep searching with the portland crew. At last resort I will put you on the quick shuttle to Vancouver where I have Rocky of LBC skate shop and my very good freind Daniel Papester ready to shuttle you guys in the big Van out to the race site.

It seems like its all coming together. If anyone needs to get a hold of me please post your phone number and I can call you. I have unlimited long distance even to Canada.

for Danny Downhiller call 425-427-1854 first

Chris,

I spoke on the phone with Dr. Patel. I will probably be down to teach him in June. This month is all about Danger Bay. I'll call you when I know the exact date for my trip your way.

Thanks for the package! I'll put them to good use.

Thanks,
Cliff

The 5th anual race at the Bear is held in Abq, NM you would fly into the Abq Sunport. All details are on the contest calendar sign up page. Vidoe clips of the Bear are on the TSR website www.TimeShipRacing.com, look under videos, then click on "Course 1" and "longslide".

Cliff, if you make it down can you be the judge? We'll reward you with our usual hospitatlity and endless ditch shuttles!
