:lol: Right now I'll be holding up anyone I ride with. Dennis and I did most of a loop today, all but Hanson's BB and Playhouse. Had walked and "jogged" (more of a fast walk) most of the trail yesterday. Fun to be on the bike.
btw, I didn't ever make it out to take care of the swampish areas but they are already packing down. You did a fine job on Swamp Thing.

Looking forward to some group riding in a few weeks.

Ok, sounds like there's good interest in it!! Excellent! What days and times would work for most? I'm good for Monday, Wednesday and/or Friday during school hours. For those less flexible, post up your availability and let's get a group ride started! And "NO DROP" is just fine with me.

My days rotate a bit due to my wifes schedule. But 11 am is pretty good. I get out at 3 am. So 11 is actually early for me! Any day works for me. I just may have to miss a week here and there

Don't always have to be going mach 1 and trying to out ride each other to be enjoyable. Any way I am just getting over the flu and still need to take it easy for a few more days while I get all my strength back and my weight up. Would be nice to see you and catch up a bit, been a while. You just say the word. :wink:

Might try to get out there this weekend for a bit on the bike or even on foot.

I only ride no drop, and at a reasonable pace. I am out to enjoy it, not to race.

If we ride together in the next month you'll get to experience the reality firsthand. I still need to minimize "exposure" for a couple more weeks yet and then I'll join folks for a no-drop group ride. :)

I'm looking forward to ride the Burch tomorrow. As far as group rides go, I don't have a preference. I'll be traveling a lot this summer, so I won't be able to make it to very many in any case.


I think you photoshopped this. That looks like a Magna.

lol huffy

Also, what is meant by 'no drop'? Does it literally mean no drop offs?

No drop means no one is left behind regardless of riding speed or ability. It ensures that everyone will finish the ride together. It's a great way to ride a trail, especially for the first time.
