man I can't wait until I can ride with you guys!
did a bunch of brush clearing, some sections were really overgrown. For me, I had NO strength.BigMike said:
It was the weekend, I was in the mountains, on my bike with a bunch of cool dudes...so, great day!
The view from the top is absolutely incredible, 360 view, awesome!
Well it would seem that the reason I had such a bad ride is my shock has NO rebound dampening at all, and I rode down on a pogo stick.
:mumble::redhot:

We were to busy playing lumber jack to take any pics.ridetoofast said:
Congrats on the race by the way.
After talking to Woody, I figured out you guys did wolf ridge. That trail is fun as hell! I wasn't sure if I should take you guys that way the first time as I knew there was one small climb involved. Didn't realize that diversion we took was cali ridge, no wonder we had a hell of a time getting out.
yeah, it was a bit tough. The fact my shock was a pogo-stick really made it suck...no rebound whatsoever, and as it turns out, the nitrogen somehow discharged...:redhot:mud'n'sweat said:
:redhot: :redhot:
Nitrogen discharge is still better than oily discharge though. 
mud'n'sweat said:Nitrogen discharge is still better than oily discharge though.
true.
mud'n'sweat said:
When we rode it, I dont remember any other options we had. From what I recall, we took the only trail down from where we started. Oh well.
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAA??????sirknight6 said:yeah, it was a bit tough. The fact my shock was a pogo-stick really made it suck...no rebound whatsoever, and as it turns out, the nitrogen somehow discharged...:redhot:
Ralph has somthing bad to say about his precious new shock?!
Seems like you are always blaming equipment. Clipless pedals, different fork, shock............ ever think maybe you just arent cut out for this kind of riding?
I'm just messin with you man, hope you get your shock all fixed up for next time we can ride!
Nah, I was trying to find a route that would be more DH'er friendly for the guys with the big bikes that don't climb so well. We found what ended up being Cali ridge on the topo map but didn't realize that is what trail it was. We just looked for the first left branch off timber ridge after the rock garden at the top. There were no trail closing signs up there and there was still the mile marker for the FR down that trail. They really should mark that trail as being closed because it is impossible to tell to anyone who is not already aware of the fact. I'm going to get back up there in the next couple months and do all of timber ridge. It's been a loooong time since I have done that trail and from what I remember it was absolutely amazing.wannabeabonedoc said:
Actually, I solved most of the issues. The rear triangle on my frame is bent, but not bad enough to replace it till next season. However, the shock loosing the nitrogen charge really sucks. Craig at Avy said that it is very unusual.BigMike said:WHAAAAAAAAAAAAA??????

The clipless after much debate decided to go for it. I used to ride clipless XC, so the only getting used to it is setting the tension on the clipless.
The shock however is a damn mystery since the only way to loose all of the nitrogen is to release it purposely. Weird situation for sure. The upside is is that I can get it charged here at a Motorcycle shop...
Oh well, as the world Turns...
sirknight, is this all on your new iron horse that you bought recently?
if so thats horrible
if so thats horrible
