edit: it was Sunday duh..
We had a very fun ride today led by the Cat like Chris G.
Riding conditons were about as good as they get. We had a little rain recently so the few sand sections were packed tightly.
We had 6 guys today, 5 on singlespeeds.
Chris led us on a sweet 2 hour loop that hit all my favorite sections with nearly no loose sand or mud.
Fred "the army one one" was mvp in my book. He has been riding for less than a year and still managed to keep in sight or just out of sight the entire ride.
This is most impressive when you consider that today was the hardest ride he ever completed.
Bob, Chris and I played musical singlespeeds. We all ride nearly the exact same saddle height so we each took turns riding different bikes.
The options were:
Haro Mary 29er (full ridgid)
Bontrager Steel 26er ss (Full ridgid w/Vicious Cycles fork)
Seven Cycles Verve SS Built w/ Cannondale Headshok.
It was neat to see how each SS was different but good. Surprisingly the $850 full stock Haro was at home in this group.
Anyway thanks to all.
I hope the guys from up north can be convinced to come down and have a go.
