Looks like fun - more monkey names need to be labeled, though. There are a few strangers in there :monkeydance:

every year monkeyfest rekindles my passion for mountain biking. Makes me want to ditch the flat billed matching pajama scene of DH and just go ride a bike in the woods...love it!

I'd like to see some of the GoPro videos again that were taken during Monkeyfest... especially the one where Crombyzombie crashed head first on Knightslayer :eek:

Living the dream.
Mostly XC but now there's some DH going on at Burke Mountain. Beer, bourbon, rum...whatever your poison is. Late July to early August for summer monkeyfest and usually Columbus Day weekend for fall monkeyfest.

Now they do this!!! why couldn't it have been a week earlier

Kingdom Trails Kitchel just got some major work done on it just in time for the weekend... all brake bumps, ruts, blowouts are now fixed. Also we've got the new J-Bar re-route cut and ready to be constructed! We're staying busy so you all can pedal your socks off!!!

I saw that note too. Oh well....Jester was better anyway!


mostly all XC AM type riding eh? sounds like you guys are all beer drinkers so I may have to drive with a bike and booze. I might as well start planing now. does it always happen around sturgis?, this time of year?
You'd have a blast and we'd love it if you made the trip out!!!


PBR for teh win!
Hell yeah! I rocked the can in my bottle holder for the rest of the ride too. :cheers:

How many of you can commit to Columbus Day Weekend? (October 7-9th) I can try to get the lodge for those 3 nights, leaving the morning of the 10th, but if there aren't enough people I won't book and there is another group asking!

I'd rather not do that weekend as it coincides with the ESC finals @ plattekill, but I'll probably end up going if no other weekend is selected.

I'm not planning to come up in the fall, sorry! A few friends and I are planning to head to Elicottville, NY for their Brewfest, which is Columbus Day weekend, and getting some riding in there. I've never ridden the trails out there, and I hear they are pretty amazing!

Trails were really good when we were there and be ready to climb and then enjoy the beers. EBC brews good stuff!

Cromby1 and I are planning on coming to the Fall Monkeyfest as of right now. It doesnt matter to me if it is Columbus Day weekend or not but I know his schedule is a little more limited for teaching.
