Anybody interested in a tour of sourlands? I know it well and will be riding this afternoon. Around 4:30 5:00. I am flexible about time. Trails are perfect and a ton of fun.
 
Arrrghhh. I live 20 minutes from there, but I won't make it.
I've been wanting to go there, but haven't made it.

How often do you ride there normally?
I would be interested in a tour of that place at some point.

I live two minutes from Sourlands. I go often. Anytime you want a tour let me know.
 
I'm always here solo but I'd be up for a group ride. Fridays are normally good for me but I'll be out of town today.

I am usually solo as well. I figured I could share this amazing park with some people who don't know it. It's a great place to ride. Hard as hell but totally worth it. So many features and technical stuff to keep you happy.

Hey ... up for doing another ride today, if you don't mind waiting up for me periodically, like on Tuesday night. Should be at the lot by 5 ...
 
This is one of the few parks around here I've never ridden. I'll def. take you up on a ride sometime. It's a bit far for me but not so much when I'm visiting family in Madison. I hear its pretty technical, which I like. How many miles of trail are there aprox?

A typical loop will be around 8 miles, but trust me it will seem like a lot more. If you make a point to hit every trail you can probably do about 12-13 miles.

While it is technical, a lot of the "features" are optional, so you can skip what you're not comfortable with and save it for next time. Knee and/or elbow pads are good confidence boosters.

A couple of us are riding at 8:30 on Saturday if anyone's looking for a tour. Conditions are perfect right now so we're going to beat the rain.

Thanks for the info Jeff. I'll def. post if I'm gonna be in the area and can ride.
 
sourlands after work or road ride after work? :hmmm:
short 2pm storm coming (maybe) and then supposed to get hot :hmmm:
 
probably like 5:45. A lil late but probably bring a light to get out. Can't ride this weekend and weather is a crap shoot so trying to get it all in.

Also, I wanted to change it up. Go counter clockwise up the usual B line and ride thee amigos down.
