    I'm off on Friday, so I'll be at G'man 7/3 for Bike Night and plan to pack up and head over to Grattan for the 7/4 & 7/5 weekend.

    Can't wait to test out the fresh pavement at Gingerman!

    **Registration Opens at 4pm
    **Track goes hot at 5pm and we ridin' until Sundown!
    **Novice, Intermediate and Advanced Groups available
    **STT Instructors will be there and available just like any other regular STT day

    most of us will be at the ladies first event Friday july3rd. it would be awesome to go over and ride gingerman until dark but, the logistics with the ladies event make it difficult. look forward to the ENTIRE WEEKEND, with our STT family. Ski

    I am of course in for Gman, probably do Sunday the 5th at Grattan. Ready to forget about the Autobahn :hat:
    On a side note I never thought Grattans bathrooms would be nicer than 'the prison' track :wtf::jester:

    Sweet!!

    I would say a half hour before registration opens. Gingerman is Eastern Time (one hour ahead of Chicago).

    I'm thinking about it. Just not sure if my tires will make one more day. Was planning on putting new shoes on Friday night at Grattan.

    Was excited for it, but the more I think about it I figure the traffic from downtown Chicago to MI might be absolutely terrible on this evening... Still undecided as of now..

    In for this! Also riding Grattan the following day. Gates close at 11pm? Novice group finishes up last, you guys suggest camping at Gingerman or think I can make the trip to Grattan?

    You can make it to Grattan. There are several of us doing the same trip, just follow the trailer in front.
