2013 Group Rides

[Iceaxe]

FYI: Next Corner Canyon race is May 14th, also one on June 4th.

Tuesday May 9, 2013. Corner Canyon in Draper somewhere as long as those competitive racists er I mean racers are not there.

Anyone with a preference on where to start? We could ride up Clark's Trail from the Coyote trail head, could do potato hill, or even ghost falls. I am game for whatever. Thoughts?

May 7th you mean...
Let's meet at Coyote at 6 PM. There are plenty of loops from that trailhead.

Who's in?

Yes you are right. I will be at the coyote. It is a pretty good climb from there so I will bring my climbing legs.

I just got off vacation and haven't pedaled for a while.

I may join you depending on weather. Don't wait for me if I'm not there on time. If I go I'll probably start at the Potato Hill trailhead and pedal over to Coyote Hollow.

@PunchKing and I blitzed a loop in 40 minutes and just got off the trail before a downpour. @tallsteve started with us too, but had some mechanical issues and had to go back. We missed a couple other people too. We left the parking lot right at 6pm with very dark clouds looming. Sorry guys.

Where do ya'll want to ride next Tuesday?

[tallsteve]

Yeah, It's never fun having to sling your bike over your shoulder and hike out because the rear derailleur/chain is so jammed in the cassette the wheel won't spin! Of course it had to happen the day I post in answer to Sombeach's question that the X-9 has been the most trouble-free derailleur I've used! Actually, I'm not sure the problem is the derailleur. Taking it in to the bike shop today. It was also the maiden voyage of a new, lite-weight, fast rolling, front tire I had just mounted and was excited about trying out. Oh, well, another day.
I hear Flying Dog may be ready to go by next Tuesday (hint, hint!).

Dang that sucks!

Good call on the PC trails, might be a winner.

[PunchKing]

I am game for the flying dog, I will be surprised if there isn't a fair bit of water and mud but will hit it none the less.

[tallsteve]

The only trail that is still closed is Flying Dog. The others, like Glenwild, are open now. With the temps warming up into the 80's over the weekend and a projected 84 on Tuesday, I'm thinking Flying Dog will be open.

Cool! This would be a great resource to have in a thread on it's own. Thanks for the data.

So is the flying dog ride still on for tuesday?

Sent from my SPH-L900

[accadacca]

Lets shoot for the flying dog and if it is still muddy we will ride glenwild loop.

Meet near the restroom on glenwild drive at 6 PM.

I'm in...he'll yeah...my riding legs suck

[tallsteve]

Flying Dog is OPEN!

[RedSpecialized]

I'm planning on making it.

[tallsteve]

I'll be there. Keep in mind that this is a 16 mile loop so, we need to start pedaling on time or we'll be finishing in the dark.

[accadacca]

I had to run down to Lake Powell to help a friend work on his boat. I'll see you suckers next week...have a great ride.

[fourtycal]

Fairly sure I'm not ready for Flying Dog on a Tuesday night. Maybe catch up to you hardcore suckers next week.
