October 21-22 with LCR, Farm, Riccoh team. MORC was there too. My first time there. Coolest trail around here for scenery and variety no doubt. Really nice.
I took off Friday night at 9:45pm, got there at 12:20am. I went without a geary bike, went single speed only!!! DARN-IT!!! It was a little much for 32x17, and a little much for 32x18 too. I think 32x19 or 20 would be a good non-race gearing. "Lot's of climbing" is a true statement.
Just let me say SS was ok Saturday am w/MORC out to Goat Dance. It was do-able with LCR gang mid-day up toad road. For the night ride to Goat again and Sidwinder I switched to 18. However, by Sunday after a few hours I was really slowing. Oh well.
So in conclusion SS is A'ok out to Goat Dance once but the second time, and after multiple rides, it was harder. On the fourth 2 hour plus ride in two days it was pretty brutal. Oh well. I kept up and had a great time.
The party, camping, campfire, food, cool weather and riding was absolutley fab. It's been a long time since I had such a good camping trip. It's my best non-race bike trip by far. I included a few pictures of Sidewinder. It was an easier than other edgy rides there. Some other edgy rides has rock hops, stair like and crack features to deal with. Really nice!
