Noble virgin looking for Noble whores

[Solo]

So I've never ridden Noble and would like to ride it with some people who know it well. Unfortunately I couldn't make the Easter ride because, well it was Easter.

Anyway, just trying to gauge interest before posting something up. I'm in for the full "Tour de Noble", normal start, extra credit start, whatever, just need to get this one in the bag before it gets hot.

Let me know if any of the Noble "whores" are up for this.

[FatPossum]

ummmm.... me too..... i think.... about the canyon that is....

Look, I'm just saying I want to ride there. Nothing about whores. Sheesh.

[jonathan_sykes81]

Just say when...well, except for this coming weekend.

i've only shuttled it but would be up for trying to ride up sometime soon.

I'm with you... haven't been to Noble, but during the easter ride, I figured it was closer for me to drive to Keyesville than Noble. Still wanna do it if the timing is right.

I'm sure there will be Noble rides coming up on the calendar soon. But if you really want to ride it, it's not necessary to wait to be guided (but of course always fun to ride with new friends and get interesting bits pointed out...). There's plenty of maps, ride reports, videos etc on line to figure out what to expect. I couldn't get my friends to agree on a ride date, so I just rode it by myself. Had a great time. Recognized the tricky parts as they came up, and no problem route-finding. Go for it!

can you guys ride during the week? i'm headed to the river this weekend and seaotter next. wednesday or thursday next week would work well for me...

It has been several years since I have ridden Noble but I would be glad to do it again. Shuttle or no shuttle - I don't care.

It has been a long while since I have been out there but I would be glad to load a track in my gps and give it a try.

My vehicle is setup to transport up to three bikes.

PM me if you are interested.

problem with doing noble is gas prices, it is a long drive for us. if anyone wants to pay for our fuel, i am game for any non-race weekend!!!

I will pay for gas if you don't leave me on the side of the trail like a used up gel because I can't climb. Actually, I am sure you don't leave trash on the trail, me on the other hand???

It's probably going to have to be a weekend ride for me. Travel time + ride time = all day event.

Pay you to ride Noble, what is this world coming to?

I'm sure we could figure something out.

I can ride during the week, just got laid off. DOH!

I haven't been to Noble in 10 years or so. So, if you guys do go during the week I'd come along.

I'm camping up at Laguna campground on the 18th-20th of this month. So I'll be up there then for sure.

No guides needed.

Go here: http://www.geoladders.com/show_route.php?route=3398

Either load the gps track or print out the turn-by-turn directions.

Is your budget really that tight?

That's the quickie route. Next time I head down I may expand a little.

It's amazing how little of the SD riding has ended up on GL.
