    I've found great contentment parking at the Glass Rd intersection and head down to Middle Control on SART, continue up to hwy 38 and go right to country store for the "Post Office" loop. Exit that loop and go left down Middle Control to SART on right and ride to Glass Rd . Take a break, or not and take the Seven Oaks fire road, go right at the mail boxes for 5 sh miles along the river, to South Fork and rest amongst the present beauty.
    Return.....not on the fire road!

    31 miler I always get, ymmv. GET AWAY, IT HELPS!!!!

    My fave ride is similar, just without the South Fork segment. Figure eight starting from the bridge at the end of paved Seven Oaks, up to Glass, SART to MCR, up that to PO Loop, then back down MCR to the car and a dip in the creek. LOVE IT!

    this is my preferred method... I love starting the day with the best part, post office section, then relax talk going up the paved and fireroad of 7 oaks, then single track bombing... ending with the beer drinking at the end worthyness b/c of the climb... even has a nice waterfall now...

    Whiting-Luge-Whiting with extra credit somewhere (extra Luge lap maybe?). Parking BEHIND Wahoos in an hour (7:30 am Saturday). @Bill is in. Anyone else?

    EDIT:
    Everyone else was in. It was f-ing CROWDED in the parking lot. Luckily, we chose a less popular route and got ahead of most of the herd.

    Sorry @Lost Kiwi - I'm not much of a planner.

    Simi perimeter. Dirt to the south followed by pavement to the north.

    Only two dirt rides and a few pavement rides in the last month... :cry: But, today is new dirt day! :D Woo hoo! New dirt!

    After careful consideration, the single speed is getting the call up. One- It will tell me how much fitness I've lost. Puking in the first mile would be a good gauge. And second- Of the two neglected mountain bikes in the garage, it had fewer creaks during the driveway test. :p

    Parking at Switzers and climbing out on a SS would guarantee puking in the first mile....:eek:

    Probably Aliso sometime today (Sunday May 3). Although morning rides fit my lifestyle better than mid-day or late afternoon rides, evidently the same is true for EVERYONE, thus massive crowds from 8am until 11am. I can't deal with that. Based on what I saw yesterday morning over at Whiting, I think I will wait.

    Anyone interested in a late morning Aliso sampler package?

    Looks like I'll be starting around 1 pm from Canyon Vistas.

    As boring as it's getting riding in my back yard I'm going to do Norway, Hidden Treasure, China Flats, Hidden Treasure, Norway and back home ride today. Traffic has more than doubled in the local hills lately. We saw over 20 people throughout our ride yesterday as opposed to the normal 10 or so. :whistling:

    Midweek Marauder Flagstaff AZT Party™...

    "The trail" has an alternate which heads through town, for an easy resupply on the route. I went that way on my AZT through ride. So I missed the big eastward swing through Walnut Canyon Nat Monument and around Eldon Mountain. Up the trail and back on the alternate is my plan (counterclockwise). Weather looks great Tuesday. Around 47 miles (not 1,750+):

    Quick little solo ride today. So many people out enjoying the outdoors. Also lots of newbies (adults and kids) on Mtn bikes, which is great, but have seen so many more helicopter extractions around here. Today two teenagers apparently crashed hard on a popular local trail called Waterworks. I’ve been avoiding it in weekends. Anyways, sounds like both of those kids were riding way over their heads - one was sessioning jumps and broke his arm and the other launched off a new jump and completely destroyed his arm and elbow. Hope the local powers don’t decide to shut these trails down for the time being.

    Sucks about the kids’ injuries, but great ride and awesome pictures! Cool snake.

    Maybe cross-post this in "I rode my bike today" or another ride report thread?

    Ouch... Some of those jumps on waterworks were crazy, and not well built. As it's an official O'Neill Park trail, who knows what will happen with all of the modifications that keep popping up.

    I'm thinking of SHARTing on Saturday! :cool:


    What? OHHH, sorry. Just SARTing. :thumbsup: I can do the other anytime! In fact, I just did! :oops:

    Not interested in a group ride though. Contraindicated symbolically if not medically.
