I'd love to but there's trail work on Noble tomorrow at 830. Riding San Juan next Fri. nite with a camp out till Sat morning.
Damn Wesley, wish you posted sooner.
It was a pretty good ride, sanjay hit pretty much all the uphillers, and we almost ran out of gas. We will try to plan better next time.
I broke my cherry there today. Got the stink eye from a few of the spando types... they see you coming and tend to widen out, ride dead center with their elbows up. That's my cue to remove feet from pedals and swerve violently like I'm out of control... Conditions up there seemed damn near perfect. We took the long loop to the right; not DH friendly but figured it would be good for the health. Topped that with a little Telonics. Life is good.

Yeah...some of these yolks always astound me! I rode it Sun and as I was coming down I could see one of these guys coming up, he gets to a switchback, I slow to a crawl to wait and see if he'll make the switchback..of course he doesn't and dismounts so I continue down..soon as he sees me, he hurriedly gets back on...like hey man I'm still coming up...sorry guy you had your chance now you'll have to wait for me...of course he doesnt and applies the above method, I don't even flinch and contiune on.
