And this^ again. Gingertooth inspired me to join Jorba this morning.

Results are here: http://raceforum.com/2011/mtman.htm If I'm looking at the right Brad, you were 14th overall and 4th in your group. I came in one behind you (overall and in the same group). That was a lot of fun.

With all the downed trees, it'll be like cyclocross out there tomorrow.

I made it up there today. As I've come to expect, more spectacular work by you and your crew. Great job!

Holy moly, elzoller. That is one fine ride. Looks like you rode Skylands before Skylands was Skylands? Man, you sure did cover it.

Video Thank for posting the video. I'm glad you got elzoller's ride on that log and not my faceplant off of it. Judging by how he rode everything else, it's a safe bet be finished it clean. I hope to get out there with you again soon. (I see your new video has provoked another round...

Sunday Ride PM sent to you guys: elzoller BreakPoint Zaskar

9 a.m. Sunday Myself and a couple of guys lined up for Sunday at 9 a.m. One of them claims knowledge of the area we've been talking about here. Hopefully Mr. Moto and all can make it. If so, post here and we'll nail down a meeting spot.

thedoner and I are on the same page (at the same time).

Western NC This is within your driving range and the weather should meet your criteria in a couple of weeks: http://www.trails.com/activity.aspx?area=10347 Some more information here: http://www.pisgahareasorba.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=section&id=9&Itemid=106 I've biked...

Thanks for your response. I will take a bit of air out of the tires and head up there tomorrow (01/15) to see how it goes. I'm looking forward to it.

Question on Snow Riding Thanks for video. Good music, good quick idea of the conditions. Forgive my ignorance here, but what equipment (if any) are you riding for conditions like this (e.g., "snow bike" conditions)? Studded tires? Just tires with different tread? Just your usual...
