anyone up for traditional wednesday night shenanigans (meet @ 6:30 at valley green)? i still only have my freeride bike only so i'll be the slower guy on anything that goes up.

we might even want to ride a little before we go back to the cars to get lights... was light till just about 7:30 last night!!!  Shocked

i am excited pretty soon we can give up lights all together and head over to belmont thursday nights...

WINTER IS DYING, and good riddance!!!!

I'm in and will be there.

Maybe try starting earlier, say 5-5:30, to get 1.5-2 hours before it gets dark? And figure out a figure 8 loop to be back by the cars after about 1-1.5 hours to pick up the lights and head out for more?

yeah the only reason to wait is if one of those those damn folks from trophy want to ride and can't show up till after the shop closes...  Wink

i don't think i have more than 2 hours on the pigbike in me...

Sounds like a plan. I will try to be at Valley Green at like 5:30... I think Nick and Jamie and Hunter and Krotee will be there too. Sounds like some madness....

it's unlikely that i can get there by 5:30. 6 at the earliest for me. if you guys are meeting at valley green how about you head up towards northwestern ave and i'll meet you there?

so who's coming @ 5:30???

lance maybe you could just call dmz's phone when you get there? i know i am volunteering someone elses phone but i ain't got one.

also out of 100 million (or however many members we have now  Wink)

we can only get around 5 to come and ride on a 70 degree day in March???

LAME....

all you lurkers need to step up and come out to ride with us.

i can't speak for anyone else but i don't bite.  Grin

Yeah Max aced it hard, nobody saw it though.  He coulda got a mild concussion, he was a little sketchy on what day it was!  atleast he had his helmet on, although without a fullface it doesn't do too much if you smash your face.

Glad to hear you're ok. Man you're one lucky bastige! That's two major wrecks that I witnessed, and you walked away relatively unharmed.
Go sprinkle some beer and something else on your bikes to thank the MTB gods for watching over you!

yeah i think i might have had an ever so slight concussion...

the ride home was slow and tripppy!!!!  Cool

what was wierd was i couldn't remember what exactly happened (but i remember now i just hit a log pile with too little speed to jump it but too much to just roll over it, next ything i know i am riding the nose wheelie of death...)

the MAJOR plus is other than bruises i got nothin major wrong with meself... i even rode to work this morning.

gotta remember that i need to learn to ride the freeride bike before i just go charging downhill...

after that crash i think i'll be on my singlespeed for a while so i remember to take er a little easier on the downs...

you guys were rippin last night! glad to see so many of you out.

too bad no one saw my wreck... it musta been a good one!

i have been using my helmet a little too much lately...  Grin
