BE afraid, very very afraid
Ther have been reports of a very slow moving XL mass of godzilla Green with Pink accents moving through parts of southern OC....
 The mass consists of of only one chain ring and one cog If you see said mass moving though an area near you it must be headed downhill, reports have it this mass does not travel uphill very well at his point. Ther have been several iightings resulting in several photo's that are not for the weak at heart. Feeel free to scroll down to view the images.

I have to look at the agenda and what time I can sneek out. Let alone how long it will take to get there... If it all comes together I will be there... Sounds like a lot of climbing

I think that you are correct, I was going to do the Pink Hubs or I9 thing but I got a killer deal on the silver King/Stans wheel set
and I could not say no...Could not fing Seat clamp  No skewers All pink grips were not the right shade So for now that is the best that I can do

 Daley isn't that bad. My route starts out with some decent climbing, a few undulations to catch your breath... mostly fire road, but Doug adds in some singletrack. Nothing challenging. Once you get down near the ranch house there's a fairly flat, but slightly uphill loop around a meadow. Then there's a gigantic climb. It's called Cardiac Hill for good reason. Justin has cleaned the whole thing. I get up to the rock (you'll see it) on the lower section and can't go any further. Then I push up a bit until levels out for a second. Then I can ride from there. No shame in pushing or resting. From there there's some more undulation, but mostly climbs (nothing as bad). Then there's one short steep hill. More undulation... a super fun singletrack descent through some trees... then you climb out of that, climb, climb, climb, climb, die, climb... and it levels out and after that for the most part you go down hill for awhile. Fire roads and singletrack.. then there's a fun ridge run descent. You get back to the pavement for a short but doable pavement climb to a SCREAMING fast pavement descent. Watch out for hikers and equestrians, but mostly just hikers on the pavement. Don't want to have a run-in when you're descending. You may get to see some cool wildlife out there. We've seen coyotes, bunnies, bobcats, rattlers... Last edited by allison : 06-20-2007 at 07:12 AM. Reason: Automerged Doublepost |
