We're doing this ride on our 45lb'ers. We will be going moderate pace, some walking possibly. Worth the J-drop section. If anyone wants to ride, but not in a hurry, we'll be starting at the bottom of sully canyon @ 9am.

that's a fun loop. Be sure to throw in widow maker on your way out to j drop. or, better yet, shuttle from bayliss to the top of Westridge, drop 1st crack and then go up sulli. 3 tech drops in teh same amount of climbing as your 1 drop ride.

come one come all.. let's get our aggressive XC on

spandex is optional, beer at the bottom is not.

 

[Nagaredama]

I've been wanting to do this. Anyone want to be a tour guide next weekend?

 

[blender]

i'm down to do it again.

it was cold and windy yesterday, but it was a good ride anyway

 

[blender]

ok.. This Saturday.. 9am, at the bottom of Sully Cyn.

again.. will be a moderate pace ride, on bigger bikes..
i'll be pushing my 45lbs'er up all the steep climbs

so if you ain't in a hurry and wanna shred J-drop, come on out

 

[SoCal Life]

How far is this trail from San Diego?

 

[blender]

2.5-3 hrs. north or so.. depending on traffic

 

[Nagaredama]

You guys riding this again anytime soon?

 

[blender]

if the weather doesn't poop out, i might be down to do it this weekend

 

[Abstrakt51]

This Sat anybody? Planning to be @ sully around 7am

 

[Abstrakt51]

I have no idea how you guys would ride this on anything other than a XC bike. The flowy singletrack and j drop made the burn worth it though.

 

[blender]

haha.. so you rode it eh..
we were at the DJs all day instead.

this is more of a cardio/endurance maintenance ride for me, so yea, i suffer through it on my 45lbs. Transition Dirtbag... J-drop's a nice reward at the end

 

[Abstrakt51]

Were you guys there today? Saw two guys coming down off the Sully fireroad into the valley, one was riding a Transition BR or new Preston?

 

[blender]

nah. must have been someone else.
was it a pink BR? Adam (mandown) rides one.

DJs again tomorrow

 

[Nagaredama]

You guys riding this loop this weekend?

 

[blender]

it's not totally out of the question..

let me talk to my crew

 

[Abstrakt51]

Nice...I might be in also.

 

[blender]

which works better for you guys.. Sat. or Sun. morning?

 

[Nagaredama]

What time are you thinking?

 

[blender]

say. 9am at the bottom of Sully

 

[Cru Jones]

... you guys need to spend less time on the ground and more time in the air...

 

[blender]

touche

 

[Nagaredama]

Saturday would be best for me.

You guys ride your big bikes on flats or clipped in?

Trying to decide whether I ride the my 575 which goes up well and down well or the AS-X which doesn't go up so well but is way more fun coming down.

 

[blender]

i'd say bring the AS-X, or else you'll be doing a lot of waiting

i usually do this on my 45 pound fully with flatties, a little pushing, a little walking, and fun as hell on the way down
other two guys that will/might be going are on a Kona Stinky and Intense 6.6, so we try to keep the pace mellow

 

[Nagaredama]

AS-X it is.

Are we on for sure for Saturday?

 

[blender]

i'm still confirming with a coupla guys.. but let's plan for Saturday 9am at the bottom.. If something unexpected happens, I'll pm you tomorrow.

cool?

Bring your legs...riding J Drop doesnt come easy.

I personally would bring the 575. Theres much singletrack and gradual grinding to be had. I dont think J Drop constitues lugging your Big Bike for the rest of the 15 miles, unless of course you're a sadist like bneall.

 

[bneall]

im in no rush

 

[blender]

my big fully is the only one available at the moment.. so yea.. i'm in the sadist club as well

 

[Nagaredama]

bneall and blender, what kind of bikes are you guys riding?

 

[blender]

i'll be on a green Transition Dirtbag, and bneall will be on his trusty brown Stinky

 

[bneall]

rockin the stink.

im outa shape too... and i suck at riding bikes.. so.. yah.

 

[Nagaredama]

Thanks for the ride Saturday. Next time you do it please shoot me a PM.

 

[tgreathead]

Sorry again for the holdups guys, my endurance fluctuates with my work schedule. Saturday was the wake up call I needed to get my ass in shape again!

bneall: I've still got that guide if you want it.

 

[blender]

yea. good times fellas!

let me know when you're heading out to the BMX track next time, i'd love to check it out.

tgreathead: no worries dude! that's no sissy loop, props for sticking it out.
