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.

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.

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.
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.

pedaling this weekend?
I want to get some riding in. I also want to work on KK's new jumps and berm since it has been wet and the dirt is good for packing and shaping.
Post up!

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...

It looks like this will be the best date for the ride. So far I plan on Pete, Ink, DT, & Mario attending. If anyone else is interested, please let me know.
Thanks,

Just finished an 8 state 8000+ mile ride over 33 days. ......
I bet you guys didn't know I could ride like that.....
Burned up a set of brakes, a rear tire, and a set of trailer tires.
Feedin' the other addiction...![]()
I forgot to mention my bike. It says GoldWing all over it.![]()
Hoping to ride somewhere early Saturday morning (i.e. 7 or 8am), but it will be a last minute call. Contact me if interested.

David, you are certainly welcome to join us. I will post directions and the time next week. I am thinking sometime around 8 or 9 on Sunday morning. Sorry Pete, I am not going at 6am in the dark.
Would everyone want to have a bbq lunch after?
Regards,
Arne

Man I wanted to join you but it was KarverKai's last Monday before school starts so we hit the GV Skatepark. He was rolling in, dropping in, working on kick turns and just killin' it. He sessioned hard on his bike in the bowls also. It was a ton of fun. When we got home he wanted to do the backyard trail ride. We almost got to the lower lot before weather and time sent us back. He was riding really well. I was really stoked.
Ink
This AM he was totally talking about going snowboarding and can't wait. He said he wished that school was during the summer so that he could snowboard all the time.
I think he is hooked... Just wait till he can ride the whole mtn!
Derek,
That is very cool!! The little man will be showin the rest of the LCI how its done in no time!! Congrats
Ride today was nice, went deer hunter style, one shot on a problem and you were done. Cleaned a few things that I haven't made in a while. Tweaked my derailler hanger on a rock, so I had to cut it short before the forest. 43 beans for a new one. Ouch. Workin with Monodude next week so no monday ride for me,
