I know this is redundant, but this particular ride is not for new or inexperienced riders. The regulars on this particular run are very wary of new riders who join this group. We have had may new riders try and keep up with the pace and crash, there is no reason for this. No one is trying to be arrogant or an asshole, when they discourage new riders or riders have not ridden these roads numerous times. Some of the corners are tricky (reducing radius, in-turn bumps, off chamber turns, etc...) and can be dangerous to any rider at any speed, but especially at an elevated pace. So if you are discouraged to join this ride by people, please dont take it the wrong way, people are directing new riders to TSB, which has alot more new riders and have more slow/moderate and newbie rides that are GREAT to learn the roads on. Once you get more comfortable with the roads and your limits, then please do join us!!

oh yeah....im in!

well...shit

I like running like we did on the way back Wednesday... I think I got 90% of my suspension worked out. The bike wasnt fighting me at all on the way back so I upped my pace for a little while on BB and it actually felt good to push it a little more than I have been... every since my accident I have only been riding around 5/10s
