Well, im out for cccx this weekend, and any 10k climbs as well. I will be in San Luis obispo riding this a good DH track or 2 :thumbup here's a taste of SLO


Next weekend though i would be down for a good 3 or 4 demo loops if anyone else is down. I'm trying to figure a place for the 10k, and have been trying to map a route through big basin, or possibly SLO if anyone wanted to travel.

And if anyone ever wants to get down to SLO to ride, let me know, im ALWAYS down to hit the trails down there, which are long, flowy and sweet. a taste:

what many of the AM trails lead to...the ocean, and one of the gnar DH's that keeps up busy:thumbup

Sick. I was thinking of going back to get my degree at Cal Poly, but I have too much going on here right now to pull that off.

Are you heading down there with people, or meeting people who are already there?
 
XTR Bottom bracket Needed IMMEDIATELY ! !

Hey John, or anyone for that matter.
My xtr M 960 bottom bracket is shot to shit.

Does anyone have one they can sell me, loan me, or I'll replace it with a new one next week. ( I can order but can't get it hear soon enough)

Still half thinking about doing the DH on Sunday with you guys and while cleaning my Nomad I discovered my bottom bracket is all but shot.
 
Hey Folks,

Myself and two friends are going up to North Chabot Saturday at 1pm. Y'all are invited!

We're thinking about doing something like this:

Start Redwood Equestrian center (Redwood & Skyline)
Take Dunn till the cross over to Joaquin Miller
Sequoia Bayview Trail to Chaparral
Down to Cinderella Trail and up Cinderella to Castel Park trail
Continue onto West Ridge Trail (south-east) keeping right till we cross Skyline
Get on Big trees Trail South till we hit Dunn again and back to the car.

Not sure how many miles that is, but it should be fun! Lemme know if you're interested. :teeth

Is Big Trees/Upper Palos Colorados open again? I was told the sign is gone, but wasn't sure.

Not sure either, if not, we might take Dunn instead. It looks like it's a little less than 10 miles or so, so if we get hungry, we might add a loop in somewhere too.

Sure Joe you can borrow my bb. Call me to swing by and wrench.
 
Downieville Classic Fees for 2008

Looks like they bumped em up:

185 for all mountain
100 for DH
85 for XC

Since my goal is a Top 5 in class, I'm still going to give it a go. It's a reference of sorts for me - with a machine I'm more comfortable on and a higher level of fitness, I'd like to see how much faster I can do it this year.
 

By carpooling and splitting a campground, I'm hoping I can make up for that price increase. It's still cheaper than a motorcycle race :)

I forget if you ran the event before. What sort of time are you shooting for on the Downhill?

Never raced it before. If i get my act together and keep riding/trying to get in shape, depending on course length i think i can be within 15 mins of the winners. around the 1 hour mark. If i don't flat, mechanical and so forth. Already picked up a set of weirwolf LT's and a rear LT freeride for the rear. Planning to attack the shit out of that course, IF i'm one of the lucky few to get registered...

One hour sounds reasonable for ya. My stopwatch last year gave me a 1:08, but my end time was a 1:17 - not sure how that happened, but it's not like a 1:08 was gonna get me some kinda trophy so I didn't make a fuss.

Can't wait to get a couple of practice runs in once the snow melts!
April 21st, Monday @ 8pm

I'll be waiting online...:laughing

You're gonna try to enter without having ever ridden the course? Brave woman :)
