No. It's overcast and cool, and the ground is drying very very quickly. The grass is still kinda soggy, but the asphault and concrete is very very dry.

i might be game...depends on what time in can get out of class tonight. i'm leaving for school around 5:15, i'll give you a call to see how late you'll be riding.
It's been a good while since a post here, but I got a shiny new camera and it was somewhat "warm" enough tonight to do a small urban ride. Here are some pics....

I know this thread is a little old, but I just want to say great stuff, WKC. I've included a couple of your shots in the Urban Attack Report, with credit to you and links back to this ridemonkey thread so folks can see all your photos. Happy trials... Mongo
Okay. Finally I got the pics up of last week's urban ride. I think we set a record for ride time in UNCG without getting kicked out. We rode there for a solid 1 1/2 hours.
Merritt wall taps Big Blue
Merritt one-foots over the stairs at the GSO College
Husani coming off of a feeble
A few of the BMX guys set up a folding steel table, then jumped into the grass.
Husani bailing
Cliff's perfect 360, with a lit cigarette.
Myself (WKC), over the rail at the science building. Kinda dark.

nice pics, whens the next ride planned?
nice pics....but if you want to continue to ride at UNCG....STAY OFF THE WALLS! i know you read the thread, if the 20" kids want to grind the ledges then they can be responsible for us not being able to ride there anymore. there is plenty to do there w/out getting on the walls, specifically the ones in the pics.
u can tell them that i'll thump 'em if i catch them grinding the ledges, screwing it up for everyone.

are ALL bmxr's too cool to wear a helmet? 
The rides are usually on Tuesday, but I would call Merritt at Re:Cycles just to check. The shop number is (336)-370-9099.untitledsince89 said:
Well noted. I think everyone, myself included, needs to think about EVERYONE and that being able to ride UNCG is a privilege, and that we can ride there as long as we follow a few rules.manimal said:
Our most recent urban ride...
First we went to UNCG, and mainly seesioned this wall for a bit.
Then moved Downtown to the Spring Garden Bridge Drop...
Then over to Big Blue...
And after everyone left, Willeville and I decided to get some food, and since my full-squish bike was on hand, I decided to do the Courthouse Gap. Now despite the picture, I actually did clear it, even though it looks like I only made it halfway.

Nope! I was thinking about it the other night but i decided not to. I want to in the day. It would be really smooth regardless of what bike you hit it on.escapeartist said:
