I went out to crabtree yesterday, had a pretty good ride. I'd be up for rides this week too, if anybody else is up for them...
PS: Last ride was great guys, thanks to all for coming out. Ahmet 2/26/2006 8:13:51 PM |

Probably gonna ride LC with a coworker tomorrow around 3:30-4. I imagine will do a loop around LC, then he'll be tired and I'll be wanting more. Would be looking to go ride RR after that if anyone wants a little bit of a challenge. 2/27/2006 10:22:18 PM |

I heard the other day about this class. How does it work? Bring your own bike? What are you learning there?
How many of you will be riding? 2/28/2006 8:55:22 AM |

I will probably be @crabtree around 3 or 3:30ish.
I'd do RR with anybody (I need directions though), if we can set something up. Ahmet 2/28/2006 1:38:33 PM |

If you wanna meet right around 3:30 then we can do RR. It is quite a step up from Crabtree, but a lot more fun too (longer downhills, less twisting and turning, more challenging obstacles, etc). 2/28/2006 2:35:37 PM |

Where would you want to meet? I'm always up for a challange, or we can take it easy (didn't we ride crabtree together once, you probably have an idea of what I can do). I do need directions though. Ahmet 2/28/2006 2:38:07 PM |

Meet at the same place as we met last time (Old Reedy Creek Rd). We could ride a lap around Crabtree to warm up and then ride a small section of RR to get a taste of it. 2/28/2006 2:39:46 PM |
Ahmet All American 4279 Posts user info edit post |
Sounds good, 3:45pm and meet you at the same spot (I think I have ridden RR if that's where it is, just a bit further up the road, on the other side of I 40 right?) Ahmet 2/28/2006 2:45:47 PM |

All we do in class is ride. If for some reason its pouring down raining, then we'll meet in a classroom and we'll go over bike maintenance or something gay. There really is no final in the class. If you dont want to meet on campus and put your bike in the trailer, you can meet the class at the trail. 2/28/2006 8:41:56 PM |

I feel this is quite suitable for what little "hardcore" riding I do. I love it! 3/21/2006 1:27:49 AM |

Anyone wanna ride somewhere today...i imagine Craptree and Harris might be the only ones open in the immediate area. 3/26/2006 10:36:31 AM |

sorry, chance, i'll be riding w/ a hot blonde today 3/26/2006 10:56:41 AM |

i guess I never realize just how dry it is around here, because it seems even when it pours for what seems like an hour, i get out there and except for the low places in the trails, they are always bone dry.
It's gonna be nice and warm this week folks. Who has a preference on a day to ride? I'm interested in maybe a little bit of crabtree and possibly a fast paced ride through Umstead since I am training for a tri.

This is just about the worst week for me, but dammit I'd still do it... What days did you have in mind (and what time)? Ahmet 3/26/2006 5:09:49 PM |
State409c Suspended 19558 Posts user info edit post |
The discussion is ongoing at work about which day...probably Wed or Th is what it will be as tomorrow there is a chance for rain. 3/27/2006 12:28:15 PM |

I run out behind Centenial Campus Middle School. The trails are obviously kept up by mountain bikers...and every once in a while I'll see one. I'd go out that way. 3/27/2006 2:30:14 PM |

i did Legend Park in Clayton and the Garner park this past weekend.
Clayton has some cool skills stuff and a pretty fun advanced loop w/ ladder bridges, etc. It also has hucksville some some pretty crazy drops. id say like 30ft high
Garner was kinda small, but has a couple cool little drop/woopty things that were fun 3/27/2006 3:41:17 PM |

So you've been to multiple ones in the area. If you had to rate them for a XCer of good ability, how would your order go? 3/27/2006 3:52:58 PM |
