You'll be so glad you did Definitely check out Summit Main and Beaver Run if you can.

Pocono is great to start out and its close for a lot of TPM members but once you done other tracks like VIR, Beaver and Summit, you realize what real race track are.

Calabogie, Tremblant and Mosport are great tracks, but Shannoville is like Pocono east.

Shannonville is worse than Pocono East because its 8 hours instead of less than 2. It really isnt worth a trip under any circumstances unless they repave the entire thing completely. By far the worse surface of any track ive been do. No elevation changes, either, but I can live without those.

Patriot is a fun small course, and a heck of a workout since you will be hanging off the bike the whole time. I personally dont think its worth its own trip, so if they are doing a 2day patriot weekend, I would pass, but later in the year (November) they do have a Patriot/North Sun/Mon deal thats worth it. Its a shame they didnt do that this year with the November North date.

I've only done Summit Main and I hated it, mostly because its not a fun track to be off the race line on, and Art Basic was holding up white group really bad all day, and in general it sucked (for me)... But I do want to give it another try... Hopefully with a JC or Shenandoah the day before.

Summit Main really is a great flowing track, definitely give it another try with an open mind.

First time I did Summit I hated it. I never understood why people liked it. Then I went back again and loved it and now I try to get there as often as I can.

(almost) Everybody loves Summit Main, and I really didnt enjoy it much... I understand why, and hopefully next time I am there, I will be slow enough to enjoy it.

Mike.... I've been avoiding your Mac questions cause a) I dont have a mac to test with and b) Macs suck.. but seriously...

If you are using Microsoft Office for the Mac, the procedure to import it into Outlook should be similar.... Maybe somebody else with a Mac and computer knowledge can give it a try? Cucullin might have a Mac, but probably not Outlook running.
