Im there!
SCAT MONKEY!2girls1cup?
I'm out for this Saturdizzle guys...moving into the new pad. I'll come out for on Sunday to either race or support though.
Congrats on the new pad!!! Im jealous..... I still have 6 months before we move back to the coastal area...........
Housewarming?
Some little groms built a hip jump, drop and some berms on the water tower trail. I stared a path 6 months ago when I moved in and I ran it yesterday with a weighted pack and noticed the trail building fairys had visited my trail. I do believe in fairys, I do, I do!
Good work from them as well, nice launch and good layout.
Its extremely loose and rocky, steep at points and easy to wreck on.. Its a good ride down with alot of potential and 400 yds to the base from my garage.
some photos of the course are posted on str it doesn't look like anything is to gnarly , but i know racing in the storm tomorrow will make section's gnarly.
70mph gusts with rain and possible thunder/lightning..........
D@MN thats exciting!!!!!! Im back in the NW

ok dudes. more hardtail porn.
i apologize in advance for the geeky nature of this post.
finally built it up last weekend... been riding it for a week, getting used to the geo and making sure everything is snug and in proper working order.
this bike is FUN to ride!!
full frontal (excuse the size)
Vendetta cranks are the bomb! Super stiff, and pretty damn light. Not as easy to install as 2 piece mtb cranks, but once you have them dialed they're pimp!
Hadley SS rear hub
Took me a long time to sort out the fork situation, but Gordon finally came through and hooked up the goods! The Argyle is rad, simple and solid. 6 clicks of compression to go from nice and plush to "i can barely compress it" stiff. Perfect DJ/street fork.
did i mention this bike is FUN to ride

Looks good P!
Damn, great looking build!!
ihate you.
Rode Sully yesterday with my cousin from SD.
I think we pissed off some rigid 29er riders when we crossed the foot deep pool at full speed. They tried to gingerly step around it only to have us splash them. Payback...long story.

anybody know this guy? 'cause it looks like he's having a hard time riding his bike. Bikes fault or pilot error?
I like your build P..."reminds me of my jeep, i wanna ride it." r kelly
Fontucky conditions today were the best I've ever ridden, serio esses! The ground was so super tacky and fast...for others I'm sure
Edge and Bull ended up on the Podium in their class and scored some real diamond crystal bling bling trophys. I on the other hand didnt fare so well. I'm thinking about dropping down a class into semi beginner, may do a bit better there.
After further review of the picture above, it looks like that "unknown rider" did in fact do it on purpose. You can see that no pressure was applied to the rear brake while the the front lever was juiced. Perfect dismount technique...A+

I'm 95% in to do the next 4X race at Fontana.
Who wants to ride next Saturday?

what did you have in mind?
I've got pretty much all day. Stunttle would be fun. Bummer Chilao is under snow. The good ole loop would be fun.
I know I should pedal and it'll help me along the wall but dammit, shuttling is just so much funner. I'll be down for Stunt if we do it more than once or hit something else after, I'm coming from the OC now.
Sounds good to me.
I'll be rocking the Enduro with the new fork. AS-X is still in pieces.
Anyone interested in hitting Simi BMX Friday evening? I need to get ready for Fontana.
Looks like a couple of our own made it to the big time.:biggrin: http://www.socaltrailriders.org/forum/racing-training/13301-everyone-loves-good-crash-pic.html
Looking good Al! (2nd crash sequence)
