Mtb - gtg?

[mustang_marc]

I'd be interested in a MTB gtg. I've already rode with Adam, Ryan, and BJ from the board. I usually ride Northshore, but have ridden most of the trails around here.

Going back out on Monday 11-14-11. Pm me if you're free and want to join.

It's EKG, not FKG.

[Osiris]

How about next Saturday? Anybody up for that?

I need to get the crank replaced on my Cannondale, but I'd like to come out.

Yes, that was it, I stand corrected. It was pretty cool going through the woods. except our bikes are not made for that, so it was interesting. Made it all the way through and finished.. looked at the sign and said "EKG...more like EK pussy... Never rode mtb trails before just bmx trails, skateparks and alot alot alot of street.

Cedar Hill looks interesting with the 3, 8, and 12 mile trail DORBA... don't know if I'd make it through on my ride though.. not used to riding over roots from trees every other second.. had to keep j-hopping over them lol.

Why do you keep saying DORBA? That's an acronym for the association who maintains the trails. By you saying it oit of context, it makes you look, well, like a big dummy. That said, Big cedar is one of the toughest trails locally.

What trails are you planning on tackling?

IDEK, I just remember being on the organizations website and it's just became a habit

We went up there and walked it for a few minutes to see what it's all about... I doubt I'd have fun being the gearing I have is 25/9...don't have multiple gears to get up those hills so it would be a lot of down time spent walking up those hills. Looks awesome though.

Looks like so far, 32vfromhell, threefingerpete if he's in town, a non board buddy, and myself. Of course, anybody else wanting to go is welcome!

Looks like it'll be northshore. I say we start at MADD park.

Since breaking every bone in my elbow one year I have stayed off upright style bikes. I had to sell my Cannondale because of the burn in my elbow it would cause. Now that being said I have just recently realized this is not the case with mountain and hybrid bikes. I am in loveeeee with the Trek FX series bikes and now I may have to revist mountain bike riding. Tried it when I was first getting in shape years ago and it almost killed me. I remember it being over a hundred and I thought I would take a stroll on the Cedar Hill trail. I also remember getting off the bike and laying down on the trail for a minute. LOL A guy went by me on the trail and he knew I was in bad shape pushing my bike along. As I was regaining my composure and finding a way off the trail I remember a helicopter starting up in the air and as soon as they saw me riding it went right back down and shut down. It is time for me to try that bad boy again on my terms.

Eff it! My Rockhopper is itching from some riding outside of neighborhoods, parks, and business complexes... Bleh. Im down for a Gpv ride! Say when and where. Only been to gpv once and that was the last day of bike school for us.

[Buick355]

I'm interested as long as it's nothing hardcore like Big Ceder, that place is brutal.

[Aceman85turbo]

I went to go ride rowlett yesterday. Got there and there was about 2000 people there. Some sort of race i guess.
