COLD ride today

Here's to the tough crew that showed up for today's COLD and WINDY ride at Mont Alto!

Chuck, Dale, Dave W. and I braved the cold and windy conditions for about 2.5 hours. Who knows if there were gut piles today, they were all frozen and covered in snow so they looked just like rocks!

"Tough as nails" Sue and Mike "air-conditioned tights" Witter stopped by with a delicious plate full of cookies on their way to Caledonia to crush the fire roads in the chilly weather. Way to go Sue! Glad to see you back on your bike.

Did anyone else brave the weather today to get in a ride? Let's hear about it.

True Mountain Biker?!

Can you identify this guy?

Is it Stubhumper or Bucchewy?

Ride

Hey All you night riders. Back in black. Well I don't know if anyone showed Sunday in all the rain but I would like to try Mont Alto again this Sunday. Ride time 9am.

What Happened?

Why is the blog black?

Wed. night ride

Planning to ride from Mont Alto on Wednesday night at 5:30 pm. It will probably be Chuck and I for sure. All others are welcome.

First Ride

Mike and I rode 13 miles this morning on the Shippensburg rail/trail and a short distance on the road. I got the OK on Tuesday to road rode, but NO out of the saddle riding yet! I was really excited, yes... this is my excitement. I felt great! Only slightly sketchy unclipping with the injured foot, but just need to keep working at it. It is actually easier to ride than it is to walk at this point. The ride wasn't very rocky either.....

Anyone up for a ride Fri??

Hit me up if anyone is riding tomorrow. Around 9:30ish???

Thanksgiving Day Ride

Wed night ride at Mont Alto

Stumphumper and I are riding from Mont Alto on Wed night at 5:15. No ride if it's raining! If it does rain Chris has invited everyone over for a pajama party and to watch "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2" and/or "Sex in the City" with him.

UPDATE: Chris says, "You got it all wrong. I told you I have an advance copy of “The Secret Life of Bees”. Pajamas are optional."

Rear Wheel Clinic

the winter version of the skills clinic happened today at Chambersburg's new 4th Street Skate/Bike Park in 27 degree temps and a few snow flurries.
many of the features had a rime ice coating that we deemed "The Michaux Effect".

we worked on getting up and down these boxes without being clipped in,
this is what we were here to do

then Brett and Jody took it to the skinny rails and up a notch

it didn't always end so smoothly

the instructor messes around (as always)

Jody schools us

Maybe we'll do this again in the Spring

cookies

Last sunday Sue stop to say hi and give us cookies at start of ride. Thankyou Sue for cookies they taste great, glad we did not have to share them with stumphumper.
