MessageI do not see that as venting as much as.....
Bringing up good points about respecting things that belong to all of us obra members. It is a good reminder that could even be posted in the van and trailer? Of course you cannot be sure users will read the reminder, but it just might prevent some damage.

The OBRA EZ up tents should be better. They cost $400+ each. They are worth that though because of durability, ability to get parts and, not least, logos. This is one of the reasons though why I get so whacked when I see a single person trying to put one up or take it down with all the pieces getting stressed and occasionally bent or broken. It takes 2 people to put one up unless you are willing to replace parts. The other thing that drives me nuts is when the expensive logoed canopies are dragged along the ground, thrown in a pile and transported without being put in a bag. All this makes for holes that will end up be drips at rainy races that will go down my collar or on the keyboard at some rainy race.

Now that I have vented I will relax a bit.

One thing I've noticed about these canopy things is not all brands produce the same thing. I bought one at GI Joes or some place like that a year or two ago, and it's nice, but nowhere near the quality of some of the canopies in the OBRA equipment stash.

Post race at Hillsboro, I took my canopy down, cold fingers making it pretty difficult. I saw poor Josh breaking down his elaborate waffle vending station all alone, so I ran over to lend a hand. The canopies he was using were cool - no little push buttons to release the legs, but big metal loops you can PULL with GLOVES ON :) Here's where I realized not all canopies are created alike.

So if you're looking at getting one of these, which I highly recommend, I'd suggest checking out the mechanism for holding/releasing the telescoping legs. From my experience, that's the number one factor in reliability, durability, and ease of use. If the legs barely work in the store, imagine how they'll work covered in grime with cold fingers.

Believe me, I take anything written in the "fish-wrapper" (or local new
channels) with a grain of salt. Especially the weather forecast!!!

I'm hoping for some "epic" conditions this weekend. That's one of the
fine qualities of a cross race!!!!

Cheers to all this weekend.
Paul

Here's what the National Weather Serice says:
http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/forecast/MapClick.php?minlon=-125&maxlon=-120.8&
minlat=43.39&maxlat=46.91&mapwidth=354&site=pqr&map.x=225&map.y=134

while I have known them to be wrong, as will all the other weather
forecasters around here, many of the local forecasters get their base
info here.

And do NOT underestimate the lifting power of the wind. A few years ago
in Nevada we had one of those mini-whirlwinds come through the paddock.
Four of us grabbed the corners of the pop up - I was the only one under
200lbs. When all of us were three feet in the air - and still rising -
we decided it was time to let the pop up "fly and be free" before
someone was seriously hurt.
The pop up flew quite a distance before we were able to recover its
remains. That's why these days if any wind is possible I secure the tent
to something really solid, like a couple cars.

There was some discussion about where to pick up some pop up tents. We
just received this sales note from EZ Up. I can really vouch for their
customer service and the ability to get replacement parts.

Hi Mike:

chance to get an incredible deal on these popular shelters. We have a
limited quantity of each so if you're interested please contact your sales
rep immediately.

Here's an overview of each model:

backyard, soccer field or camp site. This shelter normally sells for $149.95
but during our inventory blow out, you can purchase these for only $79.95 -
that's a 47% discount! These make great holiday gifts. Available in Red or
