By the time my son gets out of school at 4:00 and the babysitter shows, I think we were at the Summit trailhead at 5:00 last week. If we leave from Tibble it would be sooner. What cha think?
Where you mt. biking?

i think they call it the bobsled trail in the avenues? i got to find me a mtn bike first though! hahaha

lets shoot for 430 at tibble fork, and if we need to move it back to 5 we can!

just called sitter and she will be at my place at 4:15. I'll let you know if I can get her earlier. I have a like new 2004 Ironhorse Hollowpoint Expert I'm getting ready to put on KSL. Paid $2600 and will unload for $800? I bought it to stay motivated about riding but didn't work.

I'm shakin in my flops a little bit. Can't wait to suck some dust. Sorry if I'm a bit slow but I like to see where the heck I'm steering the bike. Why the heck doesn't SW have a thumbs up???

 

[sledhead ut]

She's a bluffer. First time cautious, then watch out, she'll be touchin rubber.
Edit: 4:45 ish.

no dust to be found on these trails... they were perfect yesterday, with a few spots being a little slick still...

i got there at like 6 last night and rode the last mile of road in the dark @ 9 pm... found some hikers that were exhausted and need a ride out...

So what time are we meeting at the reservoir? i have to split by 7 but that should give us plenty of time to rip some tacky dirt!

I asked the sitter to be here at 4:15. It shouldn't take us any more than 30 minutes from then to be on our bikes. We'll be dressed and waiting for her. Hopefully she isn't late like last week. Apparently you need after school naps when your 15. That was the reason she was late. Takin a little nappie.

Hey that doesn't sound like a bad idea right about now.

A couple hours should be a good ride.

 

[phatty]

oh you guys can keep riding! i just have to leave a little early to take care of some business in provo!

I am trying to find a ride for my bike too as I have to take a buddys car down to provo for him. I think i have found one, but we shall see!

These things have a way of working out in the end!!!

 

[sledhead ut]

OK, Let us know

 

[BossRev]

How was the ride??

 

[sledhead ut]

Holy crap!!!!!!!!

Well Phatty had last minute issues and couldn't make it. No sweat cuz we were going anyway. Man I can't believe I haven't been doing this all my life. We even ran across some local mt. bikers that had just started riding there last week and were asking us how to get out. Anyway, we left from Timpooneke TR Head and rode 150 to 157 to 252 to 157 to Rock springs, which Phatty said we may not want to do cuz of the Shale. Brutal on the wife but she sucked it up and made it. She was a trooper indeed. I think her bike dropped about 3 times. Glad I put the hand guards on last week. Oh and then she had front brake issues. But she didn't tell me till we got to the top. So, downhill otta be fun. She totally let it fly, I just told her to keep pumping the lever to maintain pressure. I really think it drives her when dudes pull up and say how the he11 did you get her in here. Anyway here are some pics I took.

[sledhead ut]

I gotta put this one on.

She always goes bug eyed. Must be the adrenaline rush.

 

[girlpowder]

Terrible pics!!!!

Oh thanks SH............... I'm never sure if I should pose or go cross eyed???? Good thing I left the helm on. My veins probably looked like they were gonna pop!!!! I didn't pee my pants, so it's all good. I like a good laugh and I do it often with the pics we get... HE HE. I love the pictures we take and I look like a guy.... That's after a long DUSTY ride... SWEET!!!!!!!

Go girl???? What thaaaaaa?????????????? FREAK!!!!!!!!!!

 

[BossRev]

Right On!! To bad rock spring is barely trickling right now. It can be a nice place to soak your head after the ride in. It's cool you ventured out of your comfort zone. It only makes you better!

 

[BossRev]

Sleadhead, sweet pix.
