Last night's bad decisions?
see, that right there was a bad decision.i do not do spicy....
Dakota Ridge. The new stuff to the south is pretty good, actually. ind of Dakota-lite in nature... still techy but not as awkward and difficult as "old" Dakota Ridge.Was this at Apex? Didn't you fall into the ravine on The Gut at a P2P ride a few years back?
Pano down?Ah, my bad. It's just the connector trail to Mule Deer. Mule Deer is the real one. I've never ridden either.
Did you hit the dropz to flat, though?Dakota Ridge. The new stuff to the south is pretty good, actually. ind of Dakota-lite in nature... still techy but not as awkward and difficult as "old" Dakota Ridge.
Pano down?
That right there is a legit Colorado Shuttle™Did you hit the dropz to flat, though?
I do not know what pano down means. Was planning on parking near Kriley Pond and then doing Mule Deer clockwise.
Edit: Saw the group message and the strava link. That sounds quite amazing. Except for the whole 3882 elevation thing.![]()

YASSSSSS.Did you hit the dropz to flat, though?
Clockwise = SMRTI do not know what pano down means. Was planning on parking near Kriley Pond and then doing Mule Deer clockwise.
And over half that gain is on a Shitty McShitstain 1-1/2 mile section of gravel road. So there's that.Edit: Saw the group message and the strava link. That sounds quite amazing. Except for the whole 3882 elevation thing.![]()
Shuttles? I FUCKING LOVE SHUTTLES.That right there is a legit Colorado Shuttle™
Eventually experiences loss of cabin pressure?What goes up ......
Requires a call to the doctor if it lasts longer than 4 hours?What goes up ......
Crawford Gulch Road? :nopenopenope:And over half that gain is on a Shitty McShitstain 1-1/2 mile section of gravel road. So there's that.
That road climb is awful, but I gotta admit its rewarding in a way (if you can't make the double shuttle work)Crawford Gulch Road? :nopenopenope:
About all I can take is a Mountain Lion loop, shuttle from there to the top of WR, then riding down WR +/- a Mustang loop. Stoney + me + his California friend did that, and 'twas good.
Have you ever considered not hurting yourself? Seems like you are always broken in one way or another.Just got back from the ortho. Nothing visibly broken, but there appears to be a bone chip from the patella floating around. He can't tell if it's new or old, but wants me to get an MRI to see if it's just massive soft tissue and bone bruising, or if I really broke something. I did however manage to put a dent into my patella which got a "cool, I've never seen this before" and another dr pulled in to play with my knee cap.
My brakes, front hub, and pedals are in. I can't wait to get everything else in to build the bike.
When wife and I did the Chimpex/WR/ML combo breaker for 50miles/9000ft. The 500ft climb up that dirt road suckedThat road climb is awful, but I gotta admit its rewarding in a way (if you can't make the double shuttle work)

That was with knee pads. If I didn't have knee pads... sweet crap that would have been bad.Got knee pads?
Whar did you go "boom"?That was with knee pads. If I didn't have knee pads... sweet crap that would have been bad.
Good work. Tape an aspirin to it, and go like hell.Just got back from the ortho. Nothing visibly broken, but there appears to be a bone chip from the patella floating around.
