Did two runs on that last week (shuttle) and crashed both times down toward the bottom of the run next to the cliff section. Still getting use to the new bike I guess...needless to say it's officially broken in!

 

Heh, yeah my bike got broken in, actually on the descent to the tunnel. I bent the rails on my seat . Gotta buy a new one before the next ride.

 

They demo'd that log jump on the other end of the tunnel.

Check out the WTB seats...pretty nice.

 

And cheap! The seat that came on my bike is WTB and only like $40 but when I went to replace it at REI they only had this nasty black and silver abortion in the model I wanted. F that

OW. I saw that a bit ago. I couldn't even imagine

 

He looked relatively ok (except for his face) for a 110 MPH crash.

 

Where's the goddamn full face helmte? Maybe he thought it would slow him down.

 

You guys down for starting at 8:30ish? I have some friends from the cycling club I belong to coming up from my area and they are starting around this time. They're doing 2 loops at Clementine starting at the top I think. I'm gonna ride with them. It's an easy to moderate pace.

 

Going to Salmon Falls instead. On the trail by 10:AM tomorrow if anyone wants to join.

 

Has anyone ridden HITG (Hole in the Ground), it's up by Boreal I think...???

 

We still on for Saturday at 11? Sorry, Rich, but I have to get up at 6am each day, Saturday = me sleepin in .

 

I'm going to try that Hole in the Ground trail, but on Sunday. Saturday I'm headed to SF.

Ended up ridding Salmon Falls last Satruday and had a great time. New bike feels great. Climbs like a MF. I pinch flatted twice though...think it was due to low tire pressure...I hope...either that or just bad luck. We did it as a 12 to 13 mile loop.

If anyone wants to go to HITG on Sunday morning let me know.

 

I've got studying/homework on Sunday, sorry dude ;|

 

I get up at 4:45AM each morning, so blow me.
