Great, now I'm gonna wake up with "I've got an Ape Drape" stuck in my head again.
It's been a while I guess.

Slept with the windows open last night and it was raining and windy. That makes for some good sleepin'. The worms have made a mass exodus from the ground this morning.

Started planning a big van road trip for late summer/early fall. Gonna visit family back in Indiana, then make our way to the southeast to visit a friend in Chattanooga, ride in Pisgah and surrounding, then try to hit Bentonville for a couple days followed by Switchgrass on the way back to Colorado.

What/where is Switchgrass? I frequently consider a roadtrip to Pisgah. But there's a lot of fuck all between here and there.

Raccoon Mtn in Chat was a fun loop iirc.

There are a few fun little rides in Indiana and on the way down to Pisgah. What area of the corn and Amish state are you stopping at?

For certain values of "mountain biking"... :D
I guess you can mountain bike anything, if you're not a [a-z]+ ?

I should have an open mind, afterall I had a fun time riding trails in Ohio. Having only been to the area around Lake Erie before that trip, I had absolutely no idea that Ohio had any hills. :busted:

The crappy part. Oh, wait. :D

Let's be honest... at the end of the day, mountain biking > not mountain biking. :thumb:

While I hail from the bustling metropolis of Ft. Wayne, most of my mother's side family is in Greentown, just outside of Kokomo. We'll be spending a couple-three days there visiting, with no plans on heading more north to visit the Old Hood. I did think about a jaunt up into The Mitten to ride Yankee Springs or Ft. Custer, so Teh Spousal Unit™ could experience the trails I cut my teeth on, but that would add time and complexity to an already full itinerary. Whereabouts are you?

EDIT: it should also be noted that I considered hitting some stuff in Southern Indiana on the way to Chattavegas... maybe Gnawbone or Brown County? Only made it down that way once or twice back when I lived there. We most often went into Michigan.

That's funny you drove up to Yankee Springs... that was some of the first "real" mountain biking I did when I was at Uni.

I used to ride some fun stuff in Ohio. While there weren't any big hills there were river valleys that could provide some steep spiciness. Reverse hills.

Did you ever ride anything around Zanesville?

The spiders were out of control...
