Slickrock Trail -- Nov '06 -- TR

[Sombeech]

**This trail is featured on the Video Page**

Slickrock Bike Trail, of course found in Moab, Utah.

The full loop is 10.6 miles, excluding a practice loop of 1.3 miles.

KillEmAll hit this on Sunday morning the 5th. We would temporarily group up with a few people we didn't know. Most mountain bikers are cool, and are willing to hang out with you, help out in anyway. We just had a fun time on the trail. We would pump each other up on making some of those brutal climbs, even though we were complete strangers.

There was a photographer from www.moabactionshots.com taking a few pics.

Go to biking, november, 5th, slickrock trail. ..and we're on roll 1.






Look at all this crap I'm carrying for the helmetcam

Dang! Very nice! Wish I would have had my bike and someone to watch Brady. Its just a big fun park for MTB'rs.

Also, there were a lot of Single Speeders there that day. We stayed in pretty much one gear the whole time, and it was equivelant to what the SS ratios were.

I think they work pretty nice on that trail.

Looks like good times. Who was the ambulance for?

Good times. Keep your eyes peeled for the helmetcam footage of this, possibly within this week. (the final cut, not the "crazy" clip )

Great photos... lots of sexy men out there!

Yes there were. And we were there too.

I'm not sure who the ambulance was for. Maybe somebody overheated in november.

I think when they saw us roll into town with bikes on the rack they just thought they should be prepared. I noticed a disappointed look on their faces when we made it back.

Yeah, they were thinking "those losers will never make it without spandex". Bob, get the denim scissors, and the spandex spray paint, we've got a job to do.

Hey what's wrong with spandex? You gotta have something to help protect the little guys.

Spandex is your friend--BUT, and I do mean BUT, there is a law that states " spandex is a privelege, NOT a right "
....some of us can wear it, some of us can't....


....that being said, I have a full armament of all types & occasions but I like my freeride shorts the best

I don't ride bikes so I should not speak... but I have always thought men should not wear spandex! --- or at least hide them under real clothes -- they should not wear those horrible little bikini swimsuits either!

Do all you bike riders wear it?

There is this photo of Brian from SLC floating around out there in cyber land --- who posts here, but not often (mostly in the climbing section I would guess) ... You awake Brian... There is a photo of him in Pink Spandex that is to die for! Than man can wear Spandex anyday!!!!!

Anyone else have some good spandex shots of themselves?

[ogdmfg]

Hell No!!

In fact, you'll hear me in the parking lot, on video, telling some other bikers that it's OK if we don't have biking shorts.
