9th Annual Cranks Around the CampFire Aug 24-26th 2018
- Thread starter DanBrodeen
- Start date
Pedal time will be 1.5-2hrs, with a group you have to allow 30-60 minutes of stop time. To answer your question, allow for 2-3hrs for the ride.
Good ride this morning with the 9am Advanced Ride to Stephens crew. @graveyardman67 thanks for leading and hitting all the good stuff.
It's all about the fill flash.

PC UT this week.
Park City trails are awesome! 'tis why I bought an apartment right on the rail trail.
Thanks for thinking of me though. Maybe next year. Although technically I'm a roadie now. My MTB is in my apartment in Utah.

Another great day at Cranks. As luck would have it, I was able to get out on Saturday and lead an Intermediate Stephens ride. Since this ride tends to draw a larger crowd, we split up into two groups and headed out. Once the dust settled a bit, we ended up with 22 riders in our pack. Typical Stephens, there is a bit of climbing to the top with a quick stop at the Tipi Rock for some skills testing. All of the climbing eventually led to the reward. This started with "Leroy" as the longest descent in this loop followed by "Funyuns" and eventually wrapping this three part decent with the Trustle Trail. All in all, we all had a great time. Temps were perfect and the skeeters were at a minimum. The Advanced group passed us right before Lil' Maze and a few of our group jumped on that train for the last few miles.
A big thank you to @Santapez for stepping up at the last minute to help as a sweeper. You were a big help with a group this size.

Unfortunately, my iPhone wasn't able to get a clear shot of everyone....sorry!!
Wrapping up the day......
Fun rippin' it down the Trestle Trail towards the Pink Maze.
A shout out to @jmanic & @JimN for some of the afternoon's hydration.....
For those that are on the fence about this.....don't be. If I were not leaving for vacation in the next few hours, I would have camped out for the weekend enjoying the trails, meeting new people, hanging with old friends and enjoying the overall great vibe this event has. Keep in mind, I live 10 minutes away and ride these same trails every weekend. This is a not to miss event!!

Great pics! Why does @JimN have jumper cables going to his crotch? Was this punishment for not riding?
Awww yeah!!
Another great weekend at Cranks.
Thanks for making the fun @DanBrodeen awesome as always.
And thanks to all the ride leaders for herding the cats on the mountain bicycles. Personal thanks go to @sarcaro for letting me sweep her recon ride on Friday
And of course my man @ReggieHammond for stepping up to lead a classic Stephens tour on Saturday.
Awesome time, can't wait for next year!

So much fun! Thanks @DanBrodeen and all who made it a memorable weekend.
So many familiar faces but not enough time to catch up personally with everyone. Sorry I couldn't chat more.
Didn't take many photos but here is @ChrisG shredding the gnar on Candy Ass Saturday
And my small but intimate ladies ride at Mooch
