Thats a fun loop, except for the Bayliss and Westridge cement grind.
Not if you are a masochist like me. It is a hard grind. Hopefully my buddy won't quit on me after the first hill.
I need to go see what those jump monkeys have been up to at Kenter... we should all hit stunt tho.. soon.
I really wish I could but I am booked.
Too bad I saw your post so late, Blender. Anyone down for shuttle on Sunday? My car doesn't have enough room for bikes but I can do the retrieval run.
Happy Easter. Any of you guys up for venturing to the OC area? I'll be shuttling San Juan on the 21st if you guys are game. Oh, and I'll prob do the Jdrop loop this coming Sat.
Scott and I will be at Sea Otter next weekend.
Saturday say 11am?
I'm out, sick right now.
Bike out of commission. I also hear that it's going to be hot this Sat, you guys may want to start a bit earlier.
Anybody doing work in Sully? Somebody propped a huge branch in front of the left drop.
Sunday Sunday Sunday...lets do the loop!
Sunday May 6 anyone game?
I'm in for at least Sully. I'm still recovering so I'll commit to at least go up the canyon and then turn back but may try to go further depending on how I feel.
Sunday May 20th 8am?
Yup yup. Nagaredama knows I might bring along my new camera so don't expect a time-trials ride
I gotta be home by 12:30 or so.Yup yup. Nagaredama knows I might bring along my new camera so don't expect a time-trials ride
4 hours should be enough time.
Were you @ Sully today around 6ish? I was coming out of the play area on a Coiler.
Yup that was me. Slugging my 40+ pounder up Sully probably had me looking beat!
You up for Saturday?
Sorry, not this weekend. I'll be in the OC. How often you ride after work during the week?
About once a week. We should hook up for a ride this coming week.
You guys missed an awesome ride. Thanks to the fog there were about 2 hikers on Backbone.
It was really cool, fog was rolling onto the fireroads on Sullivan.
You guys get some pics?
No
I kept thinking about stopping to take pics but I just got swept up in the ride. I wish I had, it was pretty amazing. We were also worried about the clock, Scott had to be somewhere so it was a time trial.
No fvcking joke. Rode w/ Nags today and guy climbs like a goat and pedals the ASX like he's on a 27 pounder. Thanks for the ride and showing me the W Drop.yea. dude.. you missed out on an oldschool BMX racer guy showing us youngsters the meaning of stamina. The dude pretty much outclimbed and outsprinted everyone in the group, and when we were done with the ride ready to throw up at the bottom, he headed back up the mountain for another go.
Now you know how I feel trying to keep up with him on every climbing ride, he's a machine
He gets his climbing power from his "attitude readjustments".
Thanks for the kind words everyone.
Going down the W drop I felt like crap (probably drank that Red Bull too quickly) . My 2.5 front Nevegal was all over the place and couldn't seem to get clipped in. Thankfully climbing Sully and going down I felt better. Hit a top speed of 27.5 mph on the upper portion.
Don't let A51's line of I've only been riding for 3 months fool you. He hit the drop in Sully like a pro.

I hit this loop today since I decided to stay local. Met some guy pedaling a unicycle who just came down the W Drop and climbed out of Sully(nuts). Legs felt strong so I rode up to Sully Canyon instead of going down on squirrel, added a couple extra miles to the loop. In the words of bneall, "I hurt."
Oh and Nags, its not 3 months, its 7
.

.if i tried this loop now, i would die 3 times.
soon tho.. soon.
soon tho.. soon.
Ya, I haven't had a proper ride in almost 3 weeks now, this weekend's gonna suck when I get back on the bike
Anyone free Sunday to ride?
Yup, I'll be doing spinning this week and hopefully getting in a mid-week ride so I'll be good to go. Around what time?
If everything checks out on the home front probably early.
What day are you riding this week?

I'm up for a ride this weekend. Saturday would be ideal but I should be good for Sunday too...
