Ride

« on: Jun 26 07:14 »
Alright, I started a new thread because the last cycling thread was getting a little cumbersome.  Mitsuman and I are going out to USI again this weekend.  Saturday morning, to be exact.  Probably try to get there at 9AM or a little before.  We are going to explore those trails a little more.  Anyone up to ride?

You should go to Scales instead.  More fast flowing sections, less roots and ridiculous uphill sections.  smile

But USI is about 5 minutes from my house! That's why I want to go there.

I need to drop my bike off at Dan's when I am done riding, that's why I chose USI.  Much closer to Dan's.  However, if I find out that they can't even start on my bike this weekend, I would be willing to go to Scales.

I understand the close-proximity thing, but you should save those rides for weekdays.  Scales is well worth the drive.   Cheers

On another note, I thought you guys might get a kick outta these.  One of my e-friends from New Hampshire got a helmet cam and made a couple short videos.

Yeah, I'm down to go.  I think Eric is planning on getting there around 8:30 or so, so we could meet him there.  I've got new gear to test out this weekend.   Dance

Heh, not quite like that.  He's just a guy I've known through the Sentra forums for years now.

What side of town do you live on?  Can Mitsuman and I follow you to Scales?  I've not been out there for about 10 years and have no idea where I am going.

I live at Sugar Mill apartments on N. Green River.  We could meet up at Schnuck's or McDonald's or something.  Maybe see who can eat the most breakfast burritos and not shit themselves while riding.  goatse

Nice vids.


So...I guess I'm riding at Scales on Saturday.   Big Grin

I'm wondering if I need to where my padded roadie shorts or not. My ass wasn't too sore after USI, but I wasn't on the seat a whole hell of a lot that day.

Schnuck's on Green River works for me.  I pass on the burrito experiment.  Someone has to ride behind the poor bastard who launches the burrito cannon. mexicano

Sounds like a plan.  Want to try to meet up around 8:15-8:30?

Oh believe me, you'll get plenty of exercise out there.  I was on the verge of complete muscular failure after my last ride out there, but that was because the guy I went with was in much better shape than me and hardly ever stopped.   Whoa

I like to take my time and enjoy the trails in sections.  Go fast till you're exhausted, stop and catch your breath, repeat.  smile

How well does Scales drain?  Looks like we might be getting some scattered rain tonight and during the day tomorrow.

Yea, I'm not looking to do sprints on my bike. I want to be able to enjoy the ride and kind of take it all in. If I get left behind, then so be it I guess.
