On strava in the challenges. I did mine yesterday hence the title.

So Saturday is Nassau Sunday is?

Somewhere.... for 125mins

If I can swing it, are you all good with waiting for me as I slowly maneuver rocks? I need to see whats what, but I think I'm off work.

I am of the opinion that OOS is an inclusive ride group, if you want to torture yourself join up. The worst climb I think is the first one out of the lot. Prob on the level of High Mtn maybe a lil tougher due to length of climbs

 

[Mathers]

Okay ride is posted. @Mtbdog @BPaze

I don't mind climbing. It's the inexperience in rocks on the downward sections that concern me. But ain't no way to it but to do it. So I'll see what I can swing.

 

[TimBay]

You ride?

Yeah yeah. Was supposed to go yesterday, but took too long at the pool with the kiddos. Might try to do early morning tomorrow, if the weather is cooperating.

I plan on pushing your limits but be safe smart and make good decisions and you will be fine. You also won’t be the first to walk if you have to. Lately since I switched to 27.5 I find I am walking more.

I will be riding my bike mullet for this ride though.

Would anyone be up for Sterling Sunday?

Would love to but have a bachelor party and will be in AC and heading back that morning.

Its just rocks.... they are like roots... just harder

 

[A Potted Plant]

This reminds me, i need to schedule northern rocks with the Mrs. Hmmm. I'll have that convo after the kid's bday party this weekend...when we're done fighting about the dumb spending

Would anyone be up for Sterling Sunday?

It's on my list just have had a shorter chain then usual

 

[qclabrat]

@qclabrat rode in China didn’t he? We need to make a Quebec/Montreal trip!

Only 80 miles, though I have 2-3 epic rides planned when kiddies leave the nest

 

[serviceguy]

Great pics! What year is the bike?

I don’t remember the exact year but is about 1990 or 91...it looks so small and the handlebars are so narrow!

I’m finally changing the tires and tubes on my 1993 mountain bike. Guessing it has several thousand miles on it and a lot of hard use. Not one flat tire in all of those years. Not sure how that is possible.

That thing looks world class. My son and I would love to rip that. Why the hell did it have to be way the hell over there.

Did early morning pass yet?

Isn't this your Saddle River bike?

 

[liong71er]

I think @GreenMachine invited me to the 100 mile challenge.

Pfft... it just takes one ride with @liong71er

@Paul H @BPaze lets do that
When I’m done Bikepacking this weekend
You guys pick where you wanna ride

Although I doubt you guys has the gut!!?

2 things, 1) I don't do road rides so it would be pretty tough to get 100 miles D) I don't usually have more than 4-5 hours on any given day to ride, so that would be a pretty impressive pace.

I love the challenge and motivation, but those rides aren't in my future. I do plan to sign up for and participate in Lucky's which is 25 miles of Mooch which should be a fun challenge though.

We have guts... our bellies clearly show.
Brett's excuse will prolly be.... he is not allowed to ride road.... pfft
Me? I got no excuse other than that I am a wimp. But I wanna get this challenge out of the way. I am going to check my schedule for next weekend and get back to you

EDIT: Can we go somewhere flat?
