Anyone riding tonight?

I'll be their assuming I recover from the run last night.

enjoy the ride.....there should be some new folks joining you. treat them well.

No new folks...

Dan, even with your ss 29 front, I couldn't stay with you on the uphills. good thing that you and Mark were still recovering from your run the night before.

Good Luck everyone at Bear Brook, a shame that I will miss it.

On my last TWO mountain bike rides (one at Webb Forest and one at Pinnacle), I ran into the same fella. I think his name was Herb and he is from Alaska/Colorado. I informed him of this web site, and encouraged him to post up or join in a ride or two. Nice guy, and I told him you all are nice guys too.

Hope to hear from you Herb!

Where is FTB?? Gas prices too high?

When in doubt, ride

Dana, Last year when PJ first got his SS I said to myself "good now maybe I can keep up" I was blown away by how fast he climbed. I learned that it's because he doesn't have a choice to go slower. It's an odd sensation you know you have to turn over the crank and because of the gearing you go faster than you normally would on a geared bike. I guess it just shows that we all can use higher gears than we like. I get tired more quickly but during the time I am riding I seem to climb faster unless the incline is very steep. I don't want to ride SS all the time but it's fun occasionally. I think it is a good training tool and early season power developer.

Well, you are all going faster than me at this point. I am hoping to get back on my bike tomorrow. Between almost broken foot and flu, I haven't been on my bike in about 3 weeks.
