Don't wait up for me if I'm not there. I'm dead tired and if I can't get up, I'll just go ride later.

 

Who needs sleep anyway? Have fun. I'll be able to ride more after I move in a couple of weeks.

 

What are you doing up so late, geez

 

I fell asleep on the couch after too much wine.

It's been a long week.

I'm going to go ride Clementine in a bit.

 

I've been having a rough week too. I crashed at 10pm last night - wife wasn't happy but there wasn't much I could do about it

Todays ride was pretty sweet. We rode up Clementine to Fuel Break to Mossy Rock, Flood and Stagecoach down. About the same amount of climbing but the climbing isn't as hard as it is when you go the other way. I gotta get ready to bail so I'll get the pics online in a bit or later tonight.

 

Oh, so hey, I need to know what day you guys want to ride next week. And soon, please. After my test rides last night on an Epic and a Stumpjumper, I want to set up a real ride on an epic for next weekend . The Epic is so hot. Anyway, if you don't mind, I'd like to ride connector/fdlt so I can get a real feel for the bike (since that trail basically has a mix of everything we ride in the area).

So let me know please so that I can call ahead and reserve it. Also, if we have to ride at 11 or so, is that a big deal? I'm not sure what time they'll open for me to pick up the bike, have them put my pedals on, set me up on it, etc. Thanks dudes.

 

Some pics from today:





The hotness:

 

Lance is a crazy man.

 

I'll ride either day next weekend and 11AM is fine.

I hit the basic Clementine loop in 1:20. The climb up was hurting, but I think that was more wine than bike. Overall she felt very comfortable - the new upright position is better on my back. Climbing didn't seem to be negatively effected. Downhill felt faster, but without you guys to gauge myself off of, I'm not 100% certain.

 

So if I call CBE tomorrow for a Saturday morning ride at 11, we're cool?

 

Our neighbor is having a St. Patrick's day BBQ and I don't know what time it kicks off (I am part Irish, just in case you didn't already know). Count me in but depending on time lines I may have to fake.

 

Hey Matt...can you take that photo and do a frame by frame overlay into one still shot???

Kinda like this...

 

I suck with photoshop. I'd be happy to give you the fullsize version of each pic if you know how/know someone who knows how to do it

 

I know no one

That's sweet how you did the moving photo though

 

I think it needs to have more delay between frames :\. I can tweak it later. I'll ask Scott about the overlay, he's good with PS.
