Let's get dirty...check here for rides.

[Paul_E_D]

Yeah, it never goes like that... hahaaa. Why struggle with three spoons when 4 is better?

[Imbeek]

Four spoons here; two little ones plus the two big ones that I bought once I found out the little ones weren't enough. Don't they come in pairs?

[typeone]

Yeah, I'm probably gonna skip it

Don't really feel,like starting a thread so for anyone interested: Garrett Wolsink's RM from the 1977 Carlsbad GP sold at auction for 70k, unrestored. Back then, there were true "works" bikes

Carlsbad was such an awesome track. i still get sucked into watching races from ~'86 or so that i have on VHS tons of MotoWorld coverage, too.

[typeone]

I dont know what time. Its up in the air right now. So I'd say go on the other ride. There will be plenty of other times

sorry my schedule got screwy yesterday, i should have just committed to HVD. ended up working anyway, booo.

got in some good seat time today though, bike felt awesome. def has some added grunt with winter mods. we're burning in a nice tech loop, had a blast. my buddies pipe isn't too happy though, rock smoosh feel bad for him, last ride the rocks ate his brand new tire (puncuted sidewall and bead) and UHD tube. expensive coulple of rides.

Went to NHMX today.. it was really muddy, but got better as the day went on. Did 4x 30-minute sessions. I think I need a full-body transplant, now...

[Paul_E_D]

Wow, you rode full 30 minute sessions? That's pretty committed. Did you have directional control for the last 10?

Honestly, spin class has done wonders for my fitness. I will admit that I got pretty tired half-way into the last session..!

[Chippertheripper]

That run over by a bus feeling. Wait till you have to walk down some stairs for the next two days.

[typeone]

Paul you gotta ride that track, it's awesome... Chris, any new config or same as last year? and SPIN is hard. i have fail. nice work.

[Paul_E_D]

Let's make that happen!

If you guys post up when you are going, I will try to join. Love that track, haven't been back since Stimulon.

Hehe, so far so good. I did hurt my left foot (somehow?) but it's mostly ok.

Only difference is the suspension. I sent it out to FC and they did revalved the factory steering damper, revalved & resprung the front forks and did the same on the rear shock. It's still hard to tell how much better it is, because I'm still a slow-ass rider, but it certainly feels better. I'm quite a bit more confident on it, though that has come with having spent more hours on the bike, but it definitely feels better.

It was really muddy for a while, and I got to practice sliding the rear of the bike a little. If I shift my weight to the outside of the bike like I'm supposed to, and get on the throttle early, I feel like I get better exits on corners. I'm still slowest on the really slow parts, i.e. hairpins and 90-degree turns, which is frustrating.

As for spin class, well I go several times a week, and the studio is very competitive (leader board and other things) so it forces you to work hard -- which is why I go. Also, I've got some friends there, so there's a social aspect to it as well. I can normally burn about 800+ calories in 45 minutes, which is substantial for me! When I started going, I sucked pretty bad; now I'm towards the pointy-end of the field.

i believe a ride Sat morning at HVD was starting to take shape... Pinned, etc will chime in

[MoXzilla]

Dont worry about it

That place gets decent amount of people for a raining day (about 10 other people) . But I know why those trails are VERY nice! I had a lot of fun.

I wont be able to make it out this weekend. Truck will be in the shop getting service.

[number9]

Haha, I totally missed that. Yep, exact same configuration as last year.

Wareham has a slight change compared to last year though. There's a little s-bend after the whoop section out the back of the track.

[loudbeard]

I'm now 50/50 for Saturday. We have some friends coming to visit and they may be showing up earlier than I expected, I'll update later in the week.

bummah, hey. pretty sure i'm 100% for 8am arrival. cant wait to visit me ol trail.. .

[typeone]

sweet! do you know which trails you hit? it's the one drag about that joint, gets confusing quick until you do it over and over again in certain patterns. riding an event there helps a lot.

i approve this message.
