OK, Saturday works for me, I have to help a buddy out on Sunday.
Zed - you want to come and play here? we can go play in your sandbox on another weekend?

Saturday is good. morning is best for me because it's a pain climbing up the highway in the afternoon :S

We'd like to go, uhuh. I'm going to call them later today - see what rates I can work out.
you guys push? shit. yea of course i meant CBC. anything less would be pinner. how does CBC-corkscrew-pingu-pangor-empress sound? and starting at 8 or 9 am would be perfect.
i'm training for team leelau so i don't push unless my bike is broken :P
oh yea, my sig says it all ;)

sounds like an hour and a half ride up and about 24 Minutes to come down
Ride up fromme it's a better deal.

i do ride up fromme. and climbing seymour is part of the whole ride. myself, i don't consider the climb to be anything separate from the down. i've shuttled seymour and i find that climbing it makes for a way better ride. i can see shuttling if you want to do multiple runs, but i'd still consider doing two climbs in one day.

climbing is good for putty...makes my man tits smaller so my gf has less to make fun of.
hey its all good. I should have my XC rig set up soon then even I can climb up. ahh 2.1 's
If you like a nice singletrack climb and nice flat road ride after park your car at the water towers on Indian River Road and climb up the baden powell. nice grade. Anouther great loop is skip CBC ride up from the parking lot to Dales ride that then push up to C-Buster. those trails are primo and you stay off the road where idiots like me are shuttling with a beer in one hand.

who told you that? i said maybe less than half hour. fuck i'm not that fast. christ, i've been owned up that mountain by many believe me. i know a couple members here who've dragged my ass up there gasping. however, on those rides i wasn't nearly as fit as i am now. hell just be glad i can't click into clipless pedals. lol
haha ask ATN about my first burke ride back when i was a bit out of shape. :P i think i only climbed about 2/3's of burke while paul and alex dabbed once or twice just to have a drink.
and my sig refers more to the fact that i suck going downhill... :D

well if it rains really hard, maybe we can just climb to CorkScrew and have a shorter but equally fun ride.
if there is poodles we can skip pangor, although, i though we could stop there and scope out some stuff if you wanted to help build later on.
have you done severed? or c buster...both are a bit better in the rain..
never done severed or c-buster but i'd love to try :)
Putty
08-06-2004, 12:26 PM
we can play it by ear...but if its dumping lets not do CBC...grease factor and trail wreckage factor.
c-buster is steep and old school, severed is a little less steep but still old school...really fun trails...not too many stunts.
yea i don't ride cbc if its raining or standing water.
i suck at steep shit but oldschool is where its at :P

you gots discs ya? you'll be fine.
we are crusing at a comfortable altitude of 4 feet, currently if you look below you, you will see your handlebars followed by a nice patch of sharp rock.
thank you for flying endo air ways. we hope your landing was comfortable.

Yeah, give Severed a go Blaine. It's a great oldschool trail.
Hi putty
yea i want to check out severed, i'd like some oldschool action. btw, let us know when you come over to visit, so we can get a shore ride in :)

hi dirty,
hi
how is island life treating you?
i'm ready for dante's death march.
good practice today was Lee running circles around me while i served up a lung on the SFU climb.
good ride though.
well that's good at least you have one lung left for tomorrow. :D
i'll probably dog it a bit anyways. especially if we're having a wake and bake pre-ride sess.
Putty

i find that helps the climb.
