Definitely not the typical Sunday Pugz Fully Loop ride. I don't think I've ever seen so many riders crash, flub, or "unintentionally dismount."

Lot's of new faces and as always a lot fun hanging out with STR bubs. It was a very entertaining day especially watching Greg and Mark riding Miss Kitty at the Loop and thanks to digital technology these moments can be shared with the masses.

Uneventful start of the ride

Jason showing off his skills!

Maybe pulling a wheelie up a hill isn't such a good idea

Brian on cruise control

More STR outtakes after these messages....

Man I just missed you guys this morning, rounding up the kids and the grocery store are well a challenge.I did see Hanzo and his son.By pure luck I also met un-kola (lyodd) and ran into Jason and a few others at the Path a little later in the afternoon.

Elvia leads the pack

Cyclo-cross bike triplets: Stoker Mark and Captain Greg on the SS Miss Kitty and Justin on his Voodoo. Although Justin brought a'hem...gears!

Trailside repair. Mini pumps suck! Takes forever to get any volume into those big tires.

Sean a week after entering the Traverse, doing some extra credit.

Zach and Jason (this time with both wheels planted)

Ko smiling pretty for the camera

First a flat, now a broken seat. Must be all that hucking.

2 Wheel Lee never disappoints

Greg and Mark attempting to make a really steep section.

Didn't exactly make it.

Regroup at the lake

Hanzo (Noel) met us at the lake with his future STR hall of famer

Nice serene ride along the creek...

...or not. Barely missing a complete dunking.

Other than the horses that came up quick near the golf course, great ride everyone! Sorry, I'm bad with names if I've met you for the first time.

roguemoog, what a way to drive from Santa Monica and ride; props to you and your gf! Duke777, awesome water bottle looking speaker system!

Thanks to Donny and Justin with the help in my chain mechanical at the top of that last climb before the dam. Also, thanks Donny for adjusting my handlebar rise and other pointers.

Hopefully I'll see you guys and some new faces next week with my brother!

Yeah, so what was up with that?
We were at the front and these wimmen come up galloping their horses.
Of course everyone in the group actually stopped like polite MTBers.

The horsies were extremely rude. One even snorted at me when it went by.

They were actually trying to hurry up so they could get passed us. When I stopped for them they mentioned that they would try to get off the trail quickly for the rest of the group.

XCMike · 05-25-2008, 07:25 PM

I told them a bunch of people were behind me but if they hurry they may beat the pack before they get going since I didn't even stop up top just crossed street and down I went.

Also I added some pics to the ride post.

always a fun ride

roguemoog · 05-27-2008, 05:37 PM

Whoops, I didn't know about these RR threads for after-ride talk. I was posting in the other one in the Trailhead forum...now I know.

Nice pics, thanks guys. Look forward to going back. Since I don't drive during the week, I can afford the gas to hit up a fun loop with a fun group once a week even if it is kinda far. We had a good time so we'll see you this Sunday!

The horsies were just jealous of Miss Kitty!
