Well duh, that’s why you fit in around here. Remember, RM is an online retirement community for battered old downhillers with multiple concussions.
Wait what were we talking about again ?

No order if it's all at once, rookie.
and once it passes through the funnel its hard to differentiate anyways
Well I think it’s pretty clear which one will be less hairy.
I was a member of the Makara Peak supporters club so I could give some aroha back to the trails I ride, but it has now decided to stop being a paid organisation. Instead they want all to donate to this, which I will happily do.

I particularly love this part:
Wellington Trails Trust
Wellington Trails Trust (WTT) is a Wellington based charitable trust focused on developing a world-class multi-user trail network in the Wellington city and region.

I particularly love this part:
Bring it on. There’s been so much work here already on so many trails, and so many new ones. Keep it up I say.
some days i really hate you. some days i don't, others i'm just not sure.
Have you ever ridden with Bizutch ?
thankfully no. another notorious RM person, yes. PM me if you want to know who.
only half that“Gramps” ? Most of you little shits aren’t even over 50 yet.
where are you located again?
when you say it that way it makes me think monkeyfest would look like a whole bunch of drunk josh bender types, sitting around a fire talking about karpiels, showing off scars and smoking weed.
Kinda wanna go to one now
Angering curmudgeons is a whippersnapper right of passage.
It's also interesting to observe who actually rides.
how do you pronounce this?
Many moons ago @mrbigisbudgood put together a ride at Sherando (@jstuhlman) with all the monkeys who used to be active on the Virginia forum (most of whom got banned).
I didn't make it but I understand it ended only after a mile or so of what is basically a very mild doubletrack climb as a number of people exceeded their limits. Ralph in particular had exceeded his quota of actual pedaling in the process and was approaching cardiac arrest.
Right?
There was that one time, that we rode many miles.
I was very hungover.
For days.
Just like it's spelled. Which is not the case with Whakarewarewa.
“Do you even monkey, Bro?”
you mean the part before the real climb actually starts?
Yes. I think the ride was abandoned on that short but tricky technical climb before the stream crossings.you mean the part before the real climb actually starts?

"Well, I *do* have this case of DIPA... how about we break into that?"
-Probably 'Squeeb
Oh, we sessioned a lot of 'session' beers that trip didn't we? Such a fun trip, such an unremarkable trail. So glad @johnbryanpeters put that together though...
A free cowpie in every pot
Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now...

I hope I never ride another trail like that again, and I loved every minute of it.
