Labor indeed.
Mornin! Kicked my own ass riding White Ranch yesterday, now I'm off to ride with SS. The welcome to CO tour continues!
Good morning.
PS88: get ready to pedal. And be sure SS takes you up Raspberry/down Blackjack.

I say go the other way if we're really going to break the boy in proper.

morning.
We did out fantasy football draft last night. My head hurts from all the beer and booze although my team isn't looking too bad this year.

Rode my mountainbike 100 miles yesterday. It was the toughest day I have ever had on a bike. Missed my goal by 30 minutes but considering the wet and sloppy conditions I am pretty happy with it. It is going to be a lazy day.
Morning.
off to work... fvck retail
slept in, Coffee then work on some video for the wife maybe go for a ride then BBQ .
My girlfriend won a guitar at a biker bar the other night. WTF.
If you think an A&P is going to help with that, I've got bad news for you.
Anything nice?
A biker bar? I am sure it was a contest of wit and intellect.
I just joined this site, but, it seems to be a complete replica of MTBR.com?
George Thorogood impersonation
Not so much. This was initially created in 2000 as a revolt to the stupidity and inane nature of MTBR. For the most part, folks here tend to be a bit nicer, and we have quite a few more pro's and industry insiders on the forum. With that you tend to get better, more useful conversation.
Also, MTBR switched to this forum format after RM. But at this point, the formatting is template across every forum.
What's a good tire for the Front Range and where should I live in Denver? Also, how do you feel about shuttling Apex?
You're off to a good start.
Morning, just got home, morning of fly fishing, no catching today though, although did have an up close look at a black bear, probably twenty feet away, maybe a two year old... Cool morning
you suck....just put the backing and dry line on my new reel then added more flies to my box
Eric your just mad cause i am a five minute walk from the galatin river, and i work five minutes from cherry creek, the madison is a fourty five minure drive, and yellowatone is a half hour, and the fiance's family has three hundred ish acres with the shields river running through it

Two weeks ago, 18 1/4, and 17.5
Definitely fulfilled the labor part of Labor day. Hauled 149 bales, or 29,800 lbs, of hops from a hop ranch into the warehouse. Did it in an 85' Freightliner cab over. I love driving that truck. Tonight I am going to clean up some bike parts so I can move em down the road. Hoping to get a pile of cash that will turn into a Blur TR.
I lived fishing the Bighole and the Madison when I was up there
Loading up my gear to go Fishing the next two weekends in the Sierras
last time I was out
Last time I was on MTBR I got negative rep by a admin for suggesting a lower BB could be preferable. The DH forum may have its share of stupidity sometimes but not anything near that level of douchebaggery.
After a week with low energy and early bedtimes with either a cold or allergies I finally got back on the bike today. My pulse was getting really high at the end but felt really good to get out and ride again. Good entertainment from the West Indian Day Parade too right next to the park. Spontaneous booty shaking on the tarmac I guess if the grove is right you gotta shake.

It rained, flash flooded, again yesterday. It has rained here in the southeast almost every fvcking day this summer. Trails are closed, again. Grarrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!
I baked 12 loaves of bread today. 2 x 6 on the bare deck. And 7 Caraway and Salt rolls. The Oven gets used to roast Beef and Chicken regularly. The fat soaks into the bricks and imparts a flavor to the breads cooked in it. Greek Olive Oil and Black Pepper ftw...
Thanks for showing me around.
What did you think of that place?Thanks for showing me around.
I love the Colorado Trail, and having that techy rocky trail in the midst of it all is amazing. (IMHO)
Best part of Buff Crik, IMO. Sadly, today I was thoroughly WHACKED by the time we got up there... so was a little dip$hitty on that section.
Tramway, however, kicks a$$. I'm not sure how I've ridden Buff Crik as much as I have and missed out on Tramway.
With the exception of Black Jack (I think) I had a great time. Everything else made for a pretty good ride. I even enjoyed the climbs. Fantastic ride overall.
I love BC, but black jack is over my head. Too much penalty for failure.
Weird. I thought you'd LOVE that section, and maybe it was comparable to the east coast roxxs! (!) you're used to.
To be fair - there are a few decent lines on BJ... but most of that $hit is dangerous, IMO - especially the landing/runouts.Weird. I thought you'd LOVE that section, and maybe it was comparable to the east coast roxxs! (!) you're used to.
I still like it.
Standard pick-name-out-of-a-hat raffle. She won a Wii at work not to long ago too. Some people just have that kind of luck (not me).
It was pretty funny/ironic that her brother and I were both there (both play guitar, in the same band in high school as a matter of fact), and she's the one that wins. It was cool.
Right on. Most of those moves were very high consequence. Some of the bigger lines were comparable to a lot of the stuff in Lynn Woods, but those were the lines I never had the cajones to ride.To be fair - there are a few decent lines on BJ... but most of that $hit is dangerous, IMO - especially the landing/runouts.

And the stuff back east probably doesn't end in a pile of pea gravel. My only gripe about Buff Crik. All that f**in' pea gravel...Right on. Most of those moves were very high consequence.

I'll take pea gravel over granite, ya fairy.
