Ok, who's got Spring Fever today???
- Thread starter N8 v2.0
- Start date
I had spring fever Saturday. I had to head out of town for the weekend but it was so nice I woke up really damn early and hit the trails just as the sun rose. Got 5 hours in before I had to hit the road.
Sunny and 70° here.............I'll probably do a road ride around the neighborhood then help Noah practice riding across the driveway.
The Arkansas MTB series starts in less than 2 weeks... 
In Seattle, we don't get spring until July.

Is it too late to start training...???
I read some where Little Rock gets as much rain as Seattle........we just get it in huge chunks instead of endless stretches of drizzly days.Tenchiro said:In Seattle, we don't get spring until July.

More Details: The Big Kahunas Back:
For all you Clydesdales out there. the big Kahunas back. Thats right, scattered around the trail will be Little Debbie Snack Cakes. The Clydesdale who brings back the most uneaten Little Debbies to the finish line wins the prestigious Big Kahuna Trophy. Last years winner vows the trophy will remain on his wall. Note: In case of a tie at the finish, the trophy winner will be determined in a Little Debbie eat-off.

Fun commuter, but that's about it.
Nah... crazy old dudes with Santa beards ride them on rocky mountain trails...
It's the same thing in my neck of the woods. I don't remember a time when we had this much rain in the Spring--not even last year. I did some riding yesterday, but all of the local trails were a mess...Zark said:
Sea Otter should be a blast!
Not me, Norcal has yet to see this thing called "Spring."
30 degrees and raining sideways at 8,000 feet this morning so we had to bail on skiing and drive home through yet another powerful storm.
Little League has canceled 4 games so far(we've never had a game called before), city parks are closed due to saturated fields, many great Spring rides are undoable due to slop and water.
Forecast: rain, rain and more rain.

I thought this was a thread about the VD N8 picked up on some sort of metro sping break after too many martinis.
It is currently rainy, and ugly here in Ventura. I scouted the Gridley trail up in Ojai and it appears to be a river, not a trail. Sping sucks.

i have had spring fever for over a week and can't seem to get rid of it. how am I expected to get anything done indoors when it is so nice out. I left work early everyday last week to go picnicking or riding or just to hang out and BBQ with friends. I've already got a tan kicking. Even got my first case of poison ivy. I can't wait until its warm enough to go to the lake. then i'll have summer fever.
I saw on CNN that they were forecasting some places in California to get 30" of rain in the next few days. That's wet.justsomeguy said:

It'll be nice for a road ride this evening. It has been pretty windy lately.
Riding weather is finally upon us in the NE, and of course it's got to RAIN now.
Well, we do need the rain anyway. Winter was very mild as far as snow goes.

Well... I found this on my Maverick SC32 fork after last night's ride... 
Within 30 min of sending an email to Dennis at Maverick, I got a reply and the replacement parts are on the way!

The only good thing about having an office with out windows is that I can't see how beautiful it is outside.
