GET IN THE CHOPPA!!!
WTF that thing is like the line for Pirates of the Caribbean at Disney.
Drove 330 miles to LA yesterday. High wind warning the entire way down I5. 8500# F350 was immune to the buffeting. Grapevine was cake even with 50mph cross winds. Going to see my dad in the hospital in a few minutes.
plus JH...lucky you.
skied yesterday. came home, made lo mein, did dabs & slept 11 hours.
now I am animating logos for a new line of patio furniture coverings down here in the flats.

4000 vert.
If you say so......Only the "ride" is way, way, WAY more fun than that one.
i meant long as in duration, not distance.
turns out my birth certificate is not certificatey enough. i need to order one from the town, not the hospital, so it's more betterer
Our Pilgrimages for the last 5 years:If you say so......

End of January always just seems to work out for Jackson... it's weird. But I ain't complainin'...
Yeah - it's the vertical that's important... not the distance.
My personal preference when I'm up there is Hoback laps - it's not the *really* steep shit, but goddam I love those top-to-bottom runs. When it's untracked it's the definition of heaven-on-earth.
neat, looks like I will be able to rebuild my bork myself

Your thighs must be otherwordly!
Times? What do you mean? How long it takes you to get to the bottom after getting off the tram?
My bad. I misread that. SC400 = winner. SC430 =Just to verify. If my lego inventory pans out I am looking at the SC430 not 400. Top Gears worst car..
When I first met my wife in college she had the SC400 coupe V8. That thing was big, but fun to drive.
For full tram runs I usually budget about 30m to get down. 1st full lap is generally quite a bit faster than the 4th one.
steve french!not sure if any of the front ranges posted this already ... cool pic from el rancho blanco.View attachment 132731
that's pretty diggity. even "long" runs on the mountains where i grew up rarely topped 5 minutes.
We usually take about that long. Have done it in 20 or so.
And I figure 4 tram runs is a full day... 5 is a really big day. Like quads-cramping big.

Not sure what happened to last years "performance review" extravaganza, but boss man just gave me papers outlining the yearly bonus and raise. Only thing missing now is a beer. Guy also said there will be some changes with a new job posting and that I'm his only candidate. Sweet?
Is that @6thElement 's alternate form? Dude really likes the trails!not sure if any of the front range
Agreed. Also, it's good, but not great. I have a few local beers I like better (Dominion City Two Flags and Sunsplit in particular). I also have been trying to limit myself to smaller cans as well... for less calories.
interested to hear your thoughts . . . seriously considering testing the waters to see how much i could get for my *ahem* "slightly" used nomad 4 . . .
what's the lead time?
About two weeks.
Haven't ridden there since before the first snow of the season, early October maybe.
website claims 4-6 for size 3. other sizes are pre-order only.
FTS is intensifying if that is even possible.
Damn those bikes are beautiful. Makes my 26" bike look silly.....
