You guys can climb this!!!! Stop with the maybes already and just do it! I'm sure you'll all be smiling at the top anyway (or grimacing, but I've never really been good at reading facial expressions).
**Unfortunately, parking is not included in the event--does anyone want to meet at Ridge Park and ride in? Afterwards, I plan on riding a bit, possibly down BVD (that trail needs some love), up Old Emerald, yadda yadda ya--anyone is welcome to join.

I'll be parking off of Ridge Park also. Riding afterwords sounds good too.

I'll be forcing myself to get up early to get in a ride before I stop to watch the cardio carnage, if anyone is interested in a crack 'o dawn loop.
I ran El Moro last night after work and went up Poles to remind myself why I stay away from it. My gps registered 30% at the steepest towards the top but the trail's in better condition than I remember it ever being.

You Tell Me.......

Stinky - 39lbs 7" of travel climbing machine!  Hoss - 32.5lbs hardtail with 145mm of travel climbing machine! I can't ride both bikes, and I can't make up my mind, so I'm gonna let you guy's decide.  What's it gonna be?

It is as steep as the meadows TRAIL but in a straight line instead of switchbacks. If you can climb across the meadows, you can climb a pole.

Final Bump! We meeting wicked early (0730) at Ridge Park and riding in from there. (You don't have to meet us at Poles until 0830, if you're riding it)
You guys would be surprised, this ride is a blast* to do and watch. And, I know you can all do it! Don't forget, you CAN stop, you just can't move forward in any fashion without having both feet on the pedals. *what you blast depends on your metabolism, breakfast, and ability to hold it down.
