inkaholic Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 I was thinking early (1-ish) so that I can get some work done in the afternoon.:( I don't think that I can get out for that 1ish. Fridays I am usually the only one in the Arena covering both machines. 10AM flight on Sunday; back mid-day Saturday. This is gettin' OLD! :( Bummer dude. :( Hopefully the bonus will be good and at least you have work to keep you busy all the time. I get bored and eat more... getting fatter by the day.

big mario Posted July 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Rode Apex with Farmer tonight, its always nice to ride with someone who biffs more than you. It was rather amusing watching him stommit halfway down the rock problem before the forest and land in the stream at the base. I had one near endo, but I felt it coming, and vaulted over the bars, a perfect2 point landing. Good times. I may be able to swing one on Sunday, I will let you know mario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inkaholic Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 The family and I checked out the skate slalom nats on saturday, ran into oldacura, and saw a bunch of fast riders. It was quite impressive to see their feet moving so quickly. A course was set on a different hill, not so steep, for kids to give it a go. KarverKai went for it and had a blast! After running the course for a while he asked if we could get some cones. Anyway, here is a quick vid off my phone that I shot while riding behind KK. I think that he will be carving his snowboard next season. Ink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inkaholic Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 COMBA Social Ride last night. About 24 people showed up for fun and frolicking in the hills behind my house. I got my A$$ handed to me on the climbs but did well descending near the front of the pack. I also handled the techy stuff well after doing that stuff a couple times by myself and a couple times with LCI and friends. Overall a good ride.

inkaholic Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Trail day Yesterday we built a "boardwalk" over a drainage on Nice Kitty, the new trail we are building in BCRA. It was a lot of tough work but the final product turned out great. After working we had a BBQ and got stuffed to the hilt. A little while later 4 of us decided to ride the Buffalo Burn trail and what exists of Nice Kitty. This was my first ride on Nice Kitty and it was a blast. Carving around the flowing turns was sooo much fun. This upper section was laid out by myself and an ex-skiracer/coach. We both had GS on our minds while laying this one out. Climbing back out wasn't nearly as bad as I had expectd it to be. Fun, productive day. Ink Our "Epic" trail working/riding event will be in Sept. I will post more info when I get it. This is a fun event with camping, food, beer, work, riding and social time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arneburner Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Yesterday, Pete joined me for a tour of our private trails at a location to be disclosed later. We had a good ride with an hour and a half of climbing and a half hour downhill ride. We were able to beat the rain showers, since you all know Pete likes to start early. We thought it would be fun to have an LCI ride from my house one day this summer, maybe followed by a bbq. A Sunday would work best for me, since I have a part-time job on Saturday afternoons. Possible dates are August 2, 23, or 30. Let me know what you think. Arneburner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably 2 or 23 as I think Concussed is out of town the 30th. FYI: We can also do this out of my backyard on Evergreen Mtn/Aldefer Three Sisters.

D.T. Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Arne- the 23rd sounds good to me. Still in DC, home late Saturday night... maybe a quicky ride at one of the local trails on Sunday, then again, I may just try to chase Shelly on a road ride...
