Do You Mountain Bike?

Welcome to Humbug, an immaculately maintained ghost town on the trail:

Taking a much deserved break after a few thousand feet of climbing in the heat:

Hike a bike, anyone?

Don't you mean "last time at South Yuba"? I could hear you blowing a gasket several hundred feet behind you on the trail when it *didn't* end at the parking lot :)

BRING ON MAMMOTH!

got a question for you guys.
my 5th element air shock has finally blown out to the point where it will not hold for more than 2 min.

where is a good place to get it serviced or can i do it myself?

You may want to send bicyclemech1 a PM on that. If anyone here knows, he would.
 
Mid-September works for me. Put it together and make some sort of concrete plan. I can comfortably take 3 riders and 4 bikes in the Pimp-Daddy E-150. I'll drive if you guys wanna foot the gas bill. Oh, and it corners like a Mutha F@#$A, just ask Crash. :wow ;) :laughing :laughing

Might have an extremely sweet Blur (size small) for sale in the near future, anyone interested?

I'm looking at either Sunday the 17th or Sunday the 24th, depending on when my fork and shock are back in my hands.

In the meantime, here are some interesting data plots from last weekend. Elevation and Speed vs Distance @ Downieville:
