I'm a tall white guy on a Gt I drive with red striped tires and a white helmet. What size rock should I use :teeth ?
 
JMP today-ski. the bigger group (dunno how many people) will meet at 430 at the pizza place. otherwise, ill be there around 1 mashing all over looking for fun things to climb. let me know if anyone wants to go earlier.

dont think were shuttling, but, could be wrong. id rather ride my bike, instead of drive my gas guzzler.

im doing demo saturday with a group, iono what im doing sunday yet. UC?
 
Anyone riding China Camp this Saturday?? If so, what time? We plan on doing a couple of loops. Not sure when we are starting. Could be around 11:30 or so.

No can do Saturday, but at least a couple of us will be there Sunday. I think we'll be doing a somewhat social pace, but the climb to the missile silo at the top always manages to be a lung / leg burner.

If you make it out, have a good ride!

Cool. I'll post ride time later today....just incase your schedule changes.
 
China Camp - Sunday 10 AM

It's a recovery ride for me, so the pace should be pretty mellow. Gotta keep that heart rate low.

Meet at 10 AM, right outside the entrance to the campgrounds on San Pedro Road. It's about 3 miles off the freeway, where all the other riders pretty much park. We'll probably go to the missile silo at the summit, then decide what to do from there. There's been some heat there recently, so it may be in our best interests to behave:

No ride saturday ryan. fork is off to fox for warranty... :rolleyes:

oh well. I bet they put new cartridges in it. they're not gonna mess around with rebuilding them, so in the end, i think you come out ahead.

you should order some of these seals in the mean time. I'd be happy to put em in when the fork comes back. I think the extra oil seal will really help with reliability/longevity.
 
Hey Mikey,

When you fully recover, we gotta start planning those training rides at Annadel and Tamarancho;)
 
Hey Mikey,

By the time I'm fully recovered, I'll have about three weeks til I start my next taper. I still need to scout out the trails around Tamarancho - I know the "Repack" trail that I did with Ryan and Joe is a lot like the loose high speed fireroad at the top of the Downieville DH.

Are you guys gonna make it out to China Camp on Sunday?

All depends on how I feel the day after the race in Salinas.
 
Ok, so this is how jacked my ankle is..

I don't know why it's bruising at the foot... Dr appt with Dr Kahan (ting's office recommended since they arent HMO) in LG next Wed to see what's the deal. It's reasonably painful on a daily basis, but I don't think it's broken.

I rolled it playing indoor soccer, playing the ball on the boards where the carpet laps up a little at the edge. Or at least it's a little loose. Go figure.

Enjoy!

BA BLAM. Buddy curtis sent me this link of his friend nate pre running the D ville DH. for all you that would like to visualize.

Nice vid - it's getting me fired up!

That was Beavers who sent you the vid? Did he get a clean run down last year? I remember he didn't finish as well in 07 as he did in 06 - I was just wondering.

Looks like there's a good chance that I'll be back at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo this fall to finish up my engineering degree. If it happens, you'll have to show me those trails you were talking about :)
