Maybe. It may be too early to tell what the weekend has in store. Ride at Wiss at 11 is a good possibility. Stay tuned.

that's true, the trails will definitely get crowded on a nice weekend- how about 9:30 at valley green?
(VG will be crowded, so I'd say Livesey lane- I know where the road is, but I'm not sure where folks meet)

If you go to Livezy there is a baseball field and a pavillion. We meet at the pavillion. I won't be there cause it's too early for me.

Hopfully some of this moisture will settle the dust on the trails...need more rain. The wiss will be sand traps for golfers soon, and you know how hard it is to get rid of those varmits!

so what time are we looking at here 11 at VG or 930 at Livezy Lane? I'd be partial to the later time, but would go either way.

I threw out the earlier time to see if there'd be a few more takers, but I'm partial to the later time also, crowds be damned.
11:00AM, Valley Green. I'm on a black litespeed.

litespeed makes aluminum bikes as well. I didn't actually know this until I ran into a dude on the trail on a yellow one (he also didnt have a working chain at the moment either).

got on the trail saturday around 12:30. What a blast. I blindly made my way through 15 miles of some sweet trails. Got lost a bit and ended up retracing my path back. which i think had more uphills . Found a sweet little gully with progressivly larger berms. Super fun! Wanted to hit it again but was too tired by this time to hike back up the hill. Well done trail. Might be back next weekend to ride "the indian trail"

Good ride. The indian side of the park is good. We worked on a Demo trail near the indian duing the summer. It was great. You can't miss the work, a bunch of rock terraces that serve as small drop offs one right after another. Very challenging on the way up.

It's not bad at all, A little sloppy in a few sections, but in general the trails fairly firm. Just finished a ride and realized my lack of riding latlely really hurts  !!!! Enjoy the party tonight, I have another shin dig to attend!!!

Welcome!
You just did figure it out! 
Just to make your question stand out a little more, you might want to start a new thread with the date in the subjec tline next time, but I'm sure there will be many people who will notice your post by checking their "unread posts"
I'm out for this week, but hopefully someone will come out to ride!
Once again, welcome and keep posting and riding!

Welcome Dennis. Weekends can be tough for some of us. Our weekly rides however have a pretty solid showing, weather permitting, just show up and ride. I can't make it tomorrow.

I guess I will use this Sat ride thread for this Sat 1/26/08. I am up for a short ride also after the TMD. I will bring my shit and be ready to hit the trails, hopefully around 2 at the latest.

Hey, that was a fun ride. Crank arm came loose after we all split off and then again by the time I made it to my house. Time for new cranks.
Heres my MotionBased link:
http://trail.motionbased.com/trail/activity/4854017
MotionBased shows i hit 206HR at the top of the gravel bastard hill. Garmin Training Center says 208. Weird.
I think I need to go try out the Bowl some more. That shit looks awesome.
