Today we went up to Pisgah natl forest for some shuttle action. It was tons of fun to be on my DH bike again. Lots of ridemonkey people present: Me, James, Vince (insanep2rider), Biggins, Eric (me89).

I had vince snap this of our shuttle vehicle. We crammed in there. I'm somewhere in the middle.

Some tight rock sections, I love this trail.

Biggins riding a switchback, this is one of the more tech spots on the trail, I haven't found an angle that shows it. I really like stuff like this though.

And lastly, a picture of carl railing on the lower, faster sections.

Thats it, we don't have school tomorrow, so I might ride again then.

 

[Curiouscaptian01]

cool stuff man, it was a good time

 

[SilentBiker]

Wow... T-pirate those pictures came out great! I'm definitely going to print out that last picture of me. That was some great riding. Thanks for coming out.

the cloud behind me looks burly as hell

 

[DHracer1067]

Nah, looks flexy.

 

[Dartman]

It's funny, I've never had a picture in my mind of Biggins actually riding a bike. Except maybe to chase booty around.

Looks like fun stuff. Nothing like a dangerously overloaded shuttle truck!

You've ridden it. Bennet Gap, we did most of the runs the fast way though, take a left instead of doing the little climbs. We did that the last run though.

 

[H20bomberman]

That shuttle set up was the bomb.

 

[H20bomberman]

In the truck picture you can see the pumpkin on the hitch.

 

[InsaneP2Rider]

that was one sweet ride...


that truck has trouble staying together as is...but we load up 7 bikes, 7 people, all of our gear, a ramp, and a pumpkin.

hmm... :dancing:

you are always doing that arent you. you shoulda gone and did pilot rock or whatever its called.

 

[InsaneP2Rider]

what if we're already having a killer time on these runs?

 

[Skookum]

cool looks like chunky rocky goodness.

We did a ride today with alot of PNW monkies that's similiar, but we climbed on our bikessssssssss!!!!#$!@#@

When you climb to the very top you can get a good view of Seattle across the Puget Sound.

Here's an old pic of what the view looks like....

I should have come out and ridden with you guys instead of watching the Bears get their asses stomped again. Dam.

I agree with this.

i ride a lot now that the arm is lettin me to an extent

 

[SilentBiker]

The pumkin on my truck was classic. Too bad it fell off. Must have been a combination of my bad driving and the bumpy road. I would have liked to have done the trail in the Fish Hatchery, but I was happy to do Bennet Gap as many times as we did. I was just starting to get the hang of it. Maybe next weekend we could do some trails we missed including the trail in the Fish Hatchery.

Yah i would too but i'm a few thousand miles too far to join up with you guys. Shouldn't feel bad i heard on the radio the Seahawks got chumped by Arizona today. Glad i was out riding oblivious to that crap.....

 

[SilentBiker]

Ahhh... A fellow Bears fan! I knew they would lose, so what's the point of watching anymore when you could be out riding? At least they beat the Packers this season.

sounds good man, your driving was pretty good in my book too, we didn't end up getting killed or anything

Yeah well, I always feel like Ive missed something really important if I miss a Bears' game. I rarely ever do. Since I was a little kid, Ive been such a huge fan that, win or lose, I just hafta watch them play. But yea, at least they beat the puckers.

 

[biggins]

why didnt t-pirate post the pumpkin pic?

 

[TN]

I bet pisgah is stunning this time of year.

 

[DHracer1067]

what if we're already having a killer time on these runs?

nothing wrong with a bit of variety is there. just making a suggestion for another really fun run.

He's right though, pilot rock is SO fun.

 

[T-Pirate]

why didnt t-pirate post the pumpkin pic?

Damn I best do that. So we roll up to the top of 477 to find carls truck...and no fellow shuttlers. We couldn't find any paper. Suddenly Ben conjures a pumpkin and a sharpie. He slams the pumpkin onto carl's trailer hitch and writes this note on it. It reads: "Shuttling Perry see at parking lot. RESPECT fools!"

 

[zod]

Suddenly Ben conjures a pumpkin

Who the hell carries a pumpkin around with them? It didn't have a Love-Hole cut in it by chance? Ben, you sic f*ck :evil:

"I knew this free pumpkin would come in handy"

 

[biggins]

i carry a pumpkin at all times in case i run out of paper.

 

[Curiouscaptian01]

i carry a pumpkin at all times in case i run out of paper.

Yeah, you could make a pretty good bong out of one if you ran out of rolling papers.... hahaha just kidding

haha yeah, that hiker looked scared, I try to let him get the dog out of our way, but he just let him sit there, luckily I didn't hit him

 

[T-Pirate]

I'm surprised anyone wants to hike on that trail with all the riders that shuttle and climb it. I've heard its causing conflicts.

 

[me89]

yes deffinatly. and he was comming up the thing thats even more deadly. and man did you see the view he was lookin at. absolutly nothing lol. poor dog must have been bored to tears he should have followed us.

I kind of got the impression the dude was taking a leak and had to cut it off short, because he had a really weird look on his face
