Its very tough to live with myself, i mean i guess i could ask b+ 29r or 29+, but i think i want suspension at sourlands . . .


O! and bring my shock pump! i have recently missed having it in the car (new bike setup problems )

Pumps in the trunk.

WTH? Sourlands has google street view? Which one of you crazy people did this?

 

[shrpshtr325]

looks like google actually put the street view car in the lot, look down in the image and you see a very blurry spot and light colors through it

this is looking like a rain out - and i probably have to cancel anyway.
my electrician put me off until tomorrow, and he can't be left alone.

[shrpshtr325]

@fidodie can we have final call by 8am?

i'm out - i gotta work with the numb nuts electrician that cuts holes in a wall with a hammer.....
(@mattybfat......)

 

[knobbyhead]

I'm out. See you in 2 weeks.

 

[shrpshtr325]

It's raining pretty good here i can only expect the same at sourlands. Based on @fidodie previous recommendation that it doesn't drain it's probably best to cancel this for this week. See you guys next week at mooch

 

[shrpshtr325]

@ReggieHammond what time and which lot you think will work best for next week? (yes its early, yes im excited for a tour of Mooch)

 

[Reggie]

I'm planning on a 9:30am start. My initial thought is the Sussex Branch lot, but that may change as we get closer. Conditions will dictate what we ride; Lumpy Bumpy, Candy Ass, etc. Those trails just aren't as much fun when super wet and slick. I will keep all posted.

 

[shrpshtr325]

awesome, ill update the start time in the 'index' post

lets hope for some dry weather (or snow, thats also apparently a possibility)

According to WU, Allamuchy is looking to get approximately 0.3" of rain tomorrow which is to fall after today's 7" of snowfall. The forecast is calling for the system to roll out by 9am tomorrow morning, but based on the suggested accumulations of rainfall coupled with above freezing temps and sunshine, I think the trails will be a bit messy by wheels down.

Sorry, but I think we should pass for this week.

thanks for the official call, as unfortunate as it is.(we can reschedule, just let us know what works for you)

If anyone wants to ride someplace else tomorrow, that holds up to rain (even if its a bit later in the day) please post up.


also, where to next week (black friday)? i believe @rick81721 said he was available for a tour of sourlands . . . but nothing is set in stone

Road or mud. Take your pick

this is mountain bike group, but we dont want to be damaging the trails either, if you think sourlands will hold too much water for next week we will take it off the table.

(would you really want to ride with me on the road anyway??)
