brrrrr fun

Great fun today peeps!! Thanks for the small tour de ringwood. That place is fun, and gnarly at times. I was hopin to wrassle me a big ole bear, but they were scared of me, hahaha. Can't wait to hit that place when it's warmer and the conditions a little better. One thing about that place is, with all the rocks, u don't really kill the trail when it's wet. Fun stuff, and the snow and ice, well, that just makes it more tech for me and the semi-slick tires, ha. Lates, hope we all make the Allaire group ride in December now.

The spot with the drop is on six bridges trail and the other is a crappy fire road coming up to the bottom of the switchbacks from the sandpit/blueberry area.

cool vid, sorry I couldn't be more impressive, I'm straight up XC yo! Almost 1400 ft in elevation gain, not bad for the weather and distance, and being a flatlander. I can do much better when I can feel my toes. Good riding guys.

was it 4 singlespeeders ? awesome

:cry: yeah funny thing a woke up at 6:00am thought maybe(ringwood) but saw snow then I was called for OT plowing County roads. I'd rather be in woods biking instead.....

Just poking fun... We met at Mahlon in Sept , an early cold morning group ride...
