Let me know when you do, I'll head out there with ya. I am really stoked on all the riding I am planning on doing this summer.ncrider said:Hey Merrrjig, you said "we" a lot in your post. Do you work at Mammoth?
Just wondering. Anyway, I sure had fun there last year and can't wait to go back.
you got it. i saw a special on their website. Two nights hotel and bike park passes for two, starting at $59 each. That so good.Ciaran said:Let me know when you do, I'll head out there with ya. I am really stoked on all the riding I am planning on doing this summer.
haha I gotta get a new bike so I can go to mammoth! I'm not gonna be able to ride soon, cause my giant nrs, has just about had enough of my thrashing on it! **** I need all kinds of new parts for it, derailleur hanger, derailleur, rear tire, cranks, bottom bracket, chainring, chainguide... dammit, I give up. I'm not buying any more parts for that bike. I'm gonna build up a Sinister R9 for the Nationals and hopefully I can go to the world cup at Angelfire, NM in October.ncrider said:Um, the two lane road up to Mammoth is scary enough when I drive, so how bout you can sit shot gun and I'll drive your pathfinder through there and you can drive through the Socal freeways. Deal.
BillT said:There's a bunch of us from Florida hitting up Mammoth in mid-August. I've been there 3 times in the past and have had more fun each time I went. If you are heading there, be sure to leave some time to hit Lower Rock Creek just outside of Mammoth.
Pm me the direction please.BillT said:There's a bunch of us from Florida hitting up Mammoth in mid-August. I've been there 3 times in the past and have had more fun each time I went. If you are heading there, be sure to leave some time to hit Lower Rock Creek just outside of Mammoth.
ncrider said:So gettin back to Mammoth. Has anybody here hit the big drop on Chain Smoke. I remeber it being pretty big and the landing is that soft pumice soil. I took a look at it last year, but the locals were saying the landing was too soft and I'd go over the bars.
Also does anybody know if they will be expanding their "x-zones"?

merrrrjig said:I saw many people hit the chainsmoke waterfall drop. I was course mashell for the drop. Its pretty crazy cuz theres not that good of a landing. Oh ya that was for the mammoth national. I think we will be heading up the sunday b4 4th of july and riding a day or 2 then heading up to north* and doing the race up there. I cant wait!
Owen's River Gorge? That place is fun, but I used to prefer Happy Boulders. Tear up your hands like something fierce, but really fun roofs. I sold off all my pro to get into mtn biking years ago and I don't regret it, but I'm starting to climb once a month again. It's great to get back out on the rock.ncrider said:Yeah, I think I've actually been close to the trail. There is a big gorge in that area that has excellent sport climbing. I used to rock climb a lot before mountain biking. Anyway, it sounds like the same area.
Could you tell me more about this special? Where do I find more info about it?ncrider said:you got it. i saw a special on their website. Two nights hotel and bike park passes for two, starting at $59 each. That so good.
