We're kicking off the 2024 Secret Santa! Exchange gifts with other monkeys - from beer and snacks, to bike gear, to custom machined holiday decorations and tools by our more talented members, there's something for everyone.
One of the mom's at Hannah's school dropped her keys, with a pepper spray cannister, just inside the front door. It exploded, spraying pepper spray all over the hallway and entryway. Women there had no idea how to clear it, or even what it was, because apparently she took off right away...
They had no fans, so no way to blow it out. When I left, they had just sent one to TGT to get a fan and set up airflow.
I'm just waiting for the email to all families making sure no one brings pepper spray in again...
Are we certain pepper spray isn’t a cure for Covid? Hot sauce cures the common cold, pepper spray is just atomized industrial strength hot sauce, must have some medicinal use right?
Well, it happened again today. Another wander of a ride, and I found my new favorite DH near town. Seriously 3 miles from my house. I ran into some dudes looking for the same ride at dusk. Involves a few substantial hike-a-bikes, and some ‘free-riding’ down an unmarked hillside, so very difficult to get to. But oh, oh so rewarding. Rocks, turns, natural features and jumps, loose terrain, hard rocks to roll or launch off of, loam, and some high meadow sage.
Superb.
But not a ‘hangover’type ride, unless you hate yourself.
1545 ft sustained descent after the work, though.
And ends at a bar/burger joint.
You front range guys always make me feel nostalgic. In my mind I'd love to go ride apex, hogsback and white ranch on a modern bike, but I am sure the elevation, heat and dryness would kill me dead...the 25 years of getting old might work against me too. My last ride down Apex was July of 2000!

Half of Apex is the front range trails are turning into doubletrack the way people wander off next to the trail to pass others instead of just standing to the side momentarily.
