We have a guest out from Michigan Andy @Michigander we are going to host the ride for. Come share you California imtbtrails hospitality!

 

Don’t force me to take the day off Mikie! My wife is not going to like this!

 

We both know the answer to this one...

 

What about my wife? I know that’s my problem!

 

Bring her. The trunk has a lock, right?

 

Well this ride sounds MUCH better than a solo SART ride... are oldnslow average climbers welcome on this "social"ride??

 

This looks awesome. I'm really excited! See you guys there!

 

Have fun guys! I am a bikeless wonder through the weekend so I will join in on one of these forest rides another time.

 

@Michigander, not sure if your friends are planning on going on Sat. But, if you need a ride, I got room.

 

I'm in!

 

. . . Drug-induced lala land.

 

Maybe in! It’s the hubbys bday soooo

 

Let’s see... four hour drive to trailhead. Four hour ride with some legends. And, then a four hour drive back home. Hmmmmmmm. On the fence teetering.

 

I'd be all over this if I thought I had a chance of keeping up.

 

I guess that the proper reply would be "duh".

 

Purty much.

 

Bummer this Sat. is booked . Next time.

 

I know a guy with an extra bike, pick a color.

It’s a social ride you will keep up just fine, especially if I run sweep.

 

Silly man! Of course! It’s a social cruise with some bombing attributes...

 

My friends might be in for a shortened version of this, so I'll let them coordinate separately. I'll take you up on that ride! Thank you!

 

And there is some exposure, just saying.

 

Make sure he brings extra spare tubes. He is currently the "I got another flat" guy... just say'in…

 

I didn't realize it was going to be THAT kind of ride

Uh oh. Jeff got called out! We gotta get you running tubeless, bud.

 

What's going on here?! I'll see you guys tomorrow.

 

Oh John runs Tubeless....

 

Yeah, have been running for years. Pretty much since it was NoTube stripes. Still I guess not sure how to set it up properly. HaHa. Just been having some flat problems lately. Including yesterday. Another funny one is when you carry a spare tube you should make sure that there are no holes in it.

 

Whoops thought you were talking about Jeff there. False alarm, @Spokes McJeff!

Oof. I know that struggle. @Mikie you have to be careful saying stuff like that... the curse might pass to you!

 

As long as you don’t look at it you will be fine.
