Jerry said yes on the phone the other day.
Have you been working at the Colanade lately? Mike W said your there from time to time... but we've never crossed paths...
I hear your the guy that built the big gap... let me know when your gonna do it; (when it's ready etc.), I would like to take a picture...
hopefully I won't have to work then.

not sure about tippytop but all the lower trails are clear. A couple of the less traveled trails have random crap on them (computer monitors for example) as well as downed trees (bringing a saw next time to fix that).
The trails were running PERFECT the last two weekends. Get some!
The rangers and forest service trucks were out on Saturday but could care less about us as they had other issues to worry about.
Bump.
Anyone want to ride this Friday?

Me thinks that place and another before it Mon in the AM... get back in the City around 7pm... maybe bring 2 bikes 8" and 6"
I could be down for that
Battle Plan?
So I was up at 38 today, people were riding. Someone has done WAY too much work up there... Things have been cut away and chicken wire has been put in places not needed. I've been riding there a while and am not stoked about what I saw. Yes, there were some downed trees and things that needed clearing. But no cutting or chicken wire should have been done... Those trails are illegal and DNR hates us enough as it is... we don't need to be up there cutting out roots and moving dozens of rocks that are keeping the hillside and trails together and the way they were supposed to be.
38 is supposed to be a great natural place to ride... Not another flow park that is groomed to be easy smooth riding.
That's my $0.02... I know there are a bunch of people who feel the same way about it as me and probably a bunch of people who feel differently. If you want a smooth trail that's not as hard as 38, go find something that is easier, there are tons of other options available for you that are a ton of fun but still somewhat challenging. If 38 is too hard for you, don't ride there. Don't dumb down the trails to meet your needs. The trails are how they are and that's how they should be with very little up keep.

Wow, that really sucks. Nothing I hate more then when people go in and sanitize trails, that's just unacceptable.
Where ya at?
I've never ridden out there, so I need a guide.
Someone let me know.

as lupe would say dumb dumb it down....... gay
4 or 5 years ago a couple of us took the warm-up trail and attempted to remove all the rocks to make it a faster and smoother trail. We got mixed reviews (at best) for our efforts. Lessons were learned and we just got better instead of altering what was there.
Fast forward...
I was a tad shocked to see how much work was done out there. Some of it was welcomed and needed but most of it just made it feel paved and less "38". Leave the paving to CBC please!
On a side note...be sure to wear your seatbelts while shuttling. I got pulled over yesterday while driving down. Thankfully the dudes who pulled me over were more interested in how I had my bike setup than giving me a ticket
what trail was messed with?
stuh-boner, lower hmo, kay-arrrrrr. Not sure about upper hmo as I don't have the best relationship with that trail. Also not sure about gate; hard to tell if someone has messed with that onewhat trail was messed with?
yes Ranger is ridable right now... only 1 serious blow down... but this is the 38 thread, you know?
