See you at island on Friday 19th?

I'm still planning to be there today at 5:30. It's goi g to be very tight on time, but I should make it. Hopefully the last lift doesn't go off at 5:30 sharp!

Going to get in on the Thursday pre-ride

Wait....you run? Wtf! Next half marathon is in August...come with!

I was last there on Friday and there was only a single tree down on the 2012 race loop that was a simple "duck under and go" in the switchback portion near the south tip. Seems that it's in good shape other than the couple fire roads are torn up from (I assume) trucks that came in to repair...

I'd love to, as I need a primer at LM before the race. Any chance your going afternoon/dinner time?

Utah is telling me I need mid-cage and "non rapid-rise". Can't be SRAM due to shifter compatibility.

Yup. That's the exact bike.

Looking for a replacement for the RD-M952 xtr rear derailer for an 05 Epic Marathon. (Broke at jungle on Sunday). I believe the middle size cage is what I need, but I'm a total noob w/ bike repairs. Email: natecrisman@gmail.com 862 251 2571 txt I'm being told 9sp stuff is now "vintage"...
