I'd like to call a pre-season safety meeting.

In as many words as your local labour Union would approve of....."Nobody moves...nobody gets hurt."


But seriously....what's your game plan for this yr? Really push and risk to progress. Continue sameO sameO. Continue a steady but safe progression......etc...

I JUST started riding for this season officially Feels SOOO good .....a whole 20min of it. Then I proceeded to go dig for 3hrs .....wtf Where am I at though? Last season started off hardcore awesome!!! Then FIRE from hell combined with other crap and that made last yr suck huge. A total wash 'cept for the first part.

So...right now....I'm playing catch up on the regular routine, plus riding a HT for the first time since '91...plus diggin' new stuff that I started last yr 'cuz there's "only" 3" of frost where I'm diggin' at

How about you guys?

i plan to push myself riding and spend more time off the bike and on the trails as well.

my goals as far as riding...

- the air supply gaps.
- sideshow drop
- totally clean the rock faces down the end of boogieman in to the pildriver while wet.
- just get better on my bike.

i'm not really down with making a list and getting all badass about progressing, but those are just some things i'd like to aspire to this summer. for the rest, just ride as much as i can wherever i can....i'd like to try and get a little more off the beaten path and see some more "out of the way" trails.

Yeah, the two main things I went to focus on this summer are dirt jumping and just riding as much as I can.

Interesting. I don't know where I will be since I am coming off a bad injury that has taken all winter to rehab. Went for a street ride the other day. My injured hand is still bothering me. So go faster, recover faster, and not get hurt. Those are my goals.

probably continue a safe and steady progression like last year, weekly whistlker rides, some shore to start off the season.
Just generally go faster, smoother, drop higher, jump better.

Nor does it in Seattle. Actually did some progressing over the "off season". I still haven't put my bike down since last spring - and I only put it down then 'cuz I was getting into snowboarding (which I did ZERO of this winter ).

Just ride, I reckon! And also try not to cripple myself unnecessarily

agreed. for two years now i've pulled out my ski/board stuff but never really end up doing much on snow - think i went boarding twice it's just so much more fun to keep on riding, specially in snow

and i'm definitely down with the fun thing - no real plans other than just trying to progress a little.
