I'm going for an erbon ride saturday. It's raining here, too, but i'll probably go regardless. I've got a new pair of 24" wheels connected to a 4130 frame and fork that's just dying to be ridden. :cool:

its supposed to be sunny and in the 60's all weekend here. gotta work today and im not gonna go out tonight because i plan on building all weekend. It will be a solo building mission but thats cool. Those who do not stewp up to bat and help will be those that do not have input on the design.

I'm down for our local bikey club's Winter Time Trail #3 on Sat, followed by some traditional New Year's munchies at the finishline.

Trail work, ehh? That's what sucks around here. About 4 or 5 of us from the bike shop around here made a sweet ass trail when everyone complained about lack of riding. Ironically, none of the complainers would ever help us with trail work. It's become a pain to keep the trail in shape because of the lack of help.

I'm doing a 25 Mile ride New years day at 11 am. it is the annual Charles river wheelmen's New yerars ride. starts in the middle of Downtown Boston. and rides all over the city.

Here is a Picture of US from last years ride. that is "Old Ironside" the USS Constitution behind us.

and this is why i am going to be a dick about telling people its exact loaction. However one could find out easily if they came and helped build.

Hey, if you strol around the area let me know.....Kevin isn't interested in riding today :(
 
Not much here since Kingston. Put the studded tires on, took a little test ride. It's spitting rain here and 39 F, and I have been too wimpy to get out.

Went on a five mile or so walk in the woods Wednesday, no lights, but there was a moon behind the clouds. A whole different world out there.

Yep, tomorrow I'll found out just how out of shape I am. I've been busy with work, house projects, and the holidays so I've not had a good ride since October. Should be interesting.

Wifey and I just got back from two days of skiing. I am tired. :dead: This is the most tired I have been from a New Year's weekend, and I didn't even drink.

Rode a little over 2 hours today, sometimes in snow. It felt good to get out, as I haven't ridden in 2 weeks. :mumble: As a bonus it was almost 50, which we don't see much in the Northeast in January.

Duh, Austin
First ride of the new year, first crash of the new year. Tailbone on a sharp rock. Ibuprofin and Sierra Nevada fixed that right up.

I went on an hour and a half rail trail ride with my girlfriend - what a great way to start the new year! Riding bikes with someone special then stopping mid way and gettin my freak on in the woods. after the ride we showered and i got my freak on again! :cool: :)
sounds like a good start to the year.

here is my delimma however. Go dirt jumping, go build some new dirt jumps at a new location, or sit on my butt and work on some new prints? I would go on a trail ride but all my friends (the 3 that i have) are not available to ride today and i like companionship on bike rides.
