The "liberace" :redneck:

Hey, you need someone to ride your spare bike? My bro's probably going to come on his XC bike (suck). He's a skinny guy like you who's good about not breaking stuff. :d1:

I'm gonna have to pass, I cant justify going colonnading on a weekend I could be riding REAL trails.:fawkdancesmiley:

Just because the "burke gilman" is an official trail, does not mean it's cool or something.

Ohhh... the gultch will be "real" fun after this much rain. :haha: Saint Ed's is not bad, but will be a bit of a mudfest here and there.

I wonder if he's man'n up and headed for 27?

27 is not his style...:eeek: not a jumps person....:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :fawkdancesmiley: :haha:

Boxxerace · Nov 13, 2008

So, your saying that pedaling through the boggy marsh of any given PNW trail is being chosen over the playground fun of the Colonnades?

:haha:

Boonie Buster · Nov 13, 2008

:rolleyes: *YAWN* :rolleyes:

I can't see why anyone would want to ride where it's dry :rolleyes:

Any more pics than that???? :corn: :corn: :corn:

Yep, we should all go there instead:awesomework:

dazed_driver · Nov 13, 2008

Well, I said COULD be riding real trails. I hope to be working on my rally car this weekend. But yeah, I like the loops I can make at Big Finn, ext 27 sounds like its not much my style, but its still on my list of things to check out. (and for the record Aaron, I havent been to Japanese gulch yet, Im not sure whats there haha) I've ridden Big Finn in the rain, and frankly, its really not that bad. The worst is pedaling 2.7/2.5 minions through 4 inches of standing water, haha.

But yeah. Who knows, maybe I'll stop by colonnade

Boxxerace · Nov 13, 2008

Booniebusta is rolling from sultan. Have him pick yah up on the way in on Sat.

P.S. Got any info on your build? (rally)

War-Jeeper · Nov 13, 2008

So Aaron you gonna haul down to SST and ride with the big boys or stay at colonade?

dazed_driver · Nov 13, 2008

yeah, group 2 car, its a RWD corolla GTS, rally spec coil overs, competly redesigned and constructed from scratch rear 4 link supension, built engine, cage, fuel cell, custom wilwood brakes (plan, at least). Unfortunently its no where near as completed as it should be at the moment :(

SST is for cross bike riders! :rb:

Actually, I have invited a few people including some newb riders, so I am going to stick with the Nade. Besides, I don't have all day to ride, otherwise I'd head to SST.

Hey, start at the Nade, then head to SST, mkay? 8am. Be there or be gay in the hay.

dazed_driver · Nov 13, 2008

Starting the day off colonnading and then migrating to something more open wouldnt be too bad. I still plan on hanging in my garage though... haha

Can we still be gay in the hay and ride bikes? I much prefer this option...

:haha:

It's been a lot of years, but I rode SST back in the day....not the jumps, but the little dh course. It's a good skill-builder site, there's stuff for all levels (there used to be anyway). But don't let him talk you into the jumps, those are for those who already know what they're doing! :awesomework:
