The Philly Freeriders ad-hoc group meets at 5:45 (wheels out at 6) at Valley Green every Thursday night, weather permitting. We're mostly cross-country riders, slightly aging, but with a few seriously good riders. If you come out, look for Gerry (tall, skinny guy with a Rocky Mountain or singlespeed), Jess (slightly large guy with a Specialized FSR) or me (tall, with a matte black helmet on a blue Santa Cruz Superlight). Or look for Donna, Erin or Krysia (Lisa is on maternity leave) - we have some great women riders too. There are some pictures of us in the PMBA gallery that may help you to identify us more easily.

Looks like wed is a washout. I'm going out tomorrow to try and prepare myself for the @sswhooping I am going to recieve at Granogue. Leaving my house at 530. Can be at Valley Green 5 minutes later if anyone wants to meet there. Middle of the pack (on a good day) sport rider pace.

I'll swing by the inn. If I don't see anyone, I'm thinking of going up Wises mill and heading counterclockwise. Stating on the demo trail. Have a good ride.

Funny, I was probably behind you by that time. Almost did a full lap, took one shortcut. Trails were perfect.

I rolled down forbidden to the Bells Mill crossing, climbed up to the top of monster and stood there for maybe 10-15 minutes BSing with another rider. You never showed up. Oh well, another time.

<--- The another rider.
I descended the monster and made my way past the Indian and over to the inn, but didn't see you.

Hey Nallen, glad to see you made it over to the forum. I guess I was convincing enough.
Tom, I suspected you might've done sometihng like that, I knew your tendency to figure-8 the park. Oh well. No biggie. We all had good rides, even if not together.

I may be out there, but cannot make it at 6. If I go out to VG, will be closer to 6:30 maybe I'll see some you out there.

cool, again same invite here. We got rained out last week. But wheels out 6pm at VG. the famous Lisa Coyle will be out for the first time in 10 months, and we'll have a few newbies with any luck too. Should be at least two different paced groups.
Plus there are many other groups out on Thursdays and even if you're late try and crash another party. And the Belmont thing is that night too, which we plan to check out sometime this summer.

I rode the IMBA demo trail from Wises Mill Rd to VG and back for a little over an hour. Took a nice spill off one of the jumps. At least I tried it.
