Yeah, I need to get out for a Beginner ride.
If I can make it out next Thursday night the three of us (Danny and LC) can do our own pace.

Well next Thursday night is my last busy night. After that all my classes are done, so I'm definitely down for the following Thursday, or any day the following week for that matter. It would be good to find the park and see the trails with other beginners, though.
I'd say I'd be up for something tomorrow afternoon, but it looks like it might be a little wet

welcome to the group!
I maybe up for a beginner ride next Thurs as well. I'm still nursing the wrist so it's making it difficult to do speed & most climbs right now.
I'm actually planning on a Saturday morning ride at Wiss..early like 8am.. I have wife's permission to go since 1)it's close by and 2) IT'S CLOSE BY!! WOO HOO! Not looking to do any speed Saturday just total chill ride to get my wrist back up & running again if anyone's interested.

You talking about this coming saturday?
I'd be up for that. I have to study all weekend for a final Monday. That would be a good excuse to get up and get moving saturday morning!
I'm not familiar with the park yet. Where should I meet you?

i have too much work around the house this Saturday morning, plus I just got new shifters and brake levers that I need to finish installing. I know I won't have the installation done by Saturday morning. Dammit, I wish I could make it, but hopefully I'll have everything up to snuff for next Thursday.

Hi guys. I'm John. I am not new to mountain biking, but I have only ridden the wiss once, and I have just begun riding with groups (my first group ride was at the wiss about a month ago). It is a blast and I would love to get out and ride the wiss more.
I am not entirely sure how to assess my level. Should I start out with a beginner group ride and if I leave them all in the dust just keep moving up the ladder until I find a group that suits me?
Thanks!

Hey Rico,
Yes I can make it out on Thursday. I got my first pair of clipless pedals this past weekend and I have been getting used to them the last few days. So far so good. I bought the Shimano M520's and the ability to adjust the tension on the pedals is great for a guy starting out I've realized. I'm going to ride the trails today and I'm sure I'll be fine so I will definitely be riding tomorrow (I have no excuse not to ride really).
Bonkers congrats dude! That sounds awesome. You should definitely update us on her name. I can imagine you're going to be busy for while but don't worry I know I'm not going anywhere. We can meet up for a ride soon.

Cool. Let me know where and when you want to meet up. My email is ricocpa@yahoo.com.
Yeah, I have the same exact pedals and love them.
