Probably not on dirt, I'll just go for a long street ride and keep the pace up. I may even try to go tonight and again later in the week, need to make up for 3 weeks of no riding!
Sounds like TGreathead and I are riding the loop but at a slow speed. It will be Sunday and we want to enjoy the day and not kill ourselves trying keep up with 60 y.os. talking about they body builder ex-wives.
Ya man, that's out there
Count me in unless I get thrashed on Saturday.
Where are you guys shuttling? TG and I may be up for that.
What's the trail like? Got any pics? I've always heard of it but never been there, just want to make sure I'm not in over my head.
How many times do you guys shuttle it?it's basically an awesome rocky singletrack, with lots of tight hairpin switchbacks, and a few very nasty rock sections. 10 minute hike to the top, and a couple of walk-a-bikes in the middle
bneall, on a gnar rock section
bring your pads and fullface
I can get 4 bikes and 4 guys in my car.
is this the poach trail in malibu? i heard hikers only on that thing. regardless, is this gonna happen on saturday? i can get a shuttle truck up there (assuming J will bend to my will).
this shuttle beats the hell out of J-drop, it's longer and funner, and doesn't require sweating on the fireroad climbs. Still haven't tried Wilson so can't speak for that
if everybody's down, let's poach this bitch on Sunday morning, or Saturday morning whatever works best for the majority of the crew... how 'bout it?
Would be nice to get a little train going.

Anyone interested in Wilson Sunday?
I'm down for whatever. I can fit 4 and carry 4 bikes given your frame can fit on the rack.
Sullivan tomorrow?
i'm in for saturday morning. we just did wilson, so i'd be in for another ride. heck, i could do another wilson too 
i'm a maybe for sunday morning.
i'm a maybe for sunday morning.
I can only do Sunday.
no can do tomorrow. Might hit this up today if I get out w/ enough daylight.
im down for anything either day. msg if you plan on something. thnx
So what are we hitting up this Sun? If nothing goes down, I'm forced to spend the day at home watching all the TV Evangelists
i'm 85% down. i gotta double check my sunday plans. is this the malibu dh? i'll need directions for that (i'm coming from hollywood). if it is wilson, then i would assume the jpl parking lot?
TG and I are going to ride the loop. I feel like punishing myself on boring fireroad climbs.
In a couple weeks we should hit Wilson.
Anyone want to ride Simi BMX sunday evening?

I think Nags means tonight at 6:15pm.
6:15am screw that!
I'm talking about 6:15pm tonight.
TG and I will probably start around 9:30am Sunday if anyone wants to join us.

While the DH trail is tempting I want a nice long ride.
Lets try and do Wilson the weekend of June 23rd. 15 miles of downhill singletrack with two small climbs.

This time of year its less than ideal but its not too bad as long as you go really early or afternoon, around 11am sucks cause all the 'never-go-outdoors' people decide to 'give it a shot.' Best time of year is around February when its colder, also makes for a better ride since its usually foggy
TG and I have found the hikers to be super nice. Most of them think we're crazy for riding those trails on our bikes (nothing crazy about the trails really).
I don't recall ever having a bad encounter with a hiker up there. Most are friendly and curious.
I just realized I am aiming to hit Mammoth opening weekend which is June 23rd.
Any of you guys interested?
