Cool Pre-Sale Path Ride Sept 9

maxwell DIRTY STINKY PATH LOVE
Request Reminder
08-24-2007
OK, for all of you that need to get "one more ride in" before you replace "it" at The Path's Sept. 9th sale, here it is......

Meet at The Path at 8:15 am, we'll leave from there, and car-pool to Whiting Ranch, and do Whiting to the Luge. If you'd rather meet us at Whiting, that's cool too. Just park across the street by the Outback Steak House, we can meet you there before 9:00am.

Here's the Geoladders link to find out what the route is like; http://www.geoladders.com/show_route.php?route=1761

If we're riding by 9:00am, we should be back at the shop by 12:30'ish.

This is NOT really a good ride for beginers.

After the ride we'll head back to the shop, hit the taco bar, and spend some dough!

Sorry guy's, I double posted this ride trying to add it to the calender.

Modirators, a little help please?

I know a few other peeps were talking about doing this ride that aren't signed up... Jeff, Nam (finger willing??), Ann and Andy ??

Who all is gonna ride Whiting - Luge??

BTW, should I bring my Dos or the Enduro? HuckSpokes - are you riding the Nomad?

I've ridden it before. It was actually the inaugural ride on the Dos on my birthday last year! Just didn't know what everyone else was bringing.

It's a great ride on a hardtail. Front shock helps but full rigid is OK too.

since then, i have never quite trusted the front wheel on the Niner for bigger stuff...
I can't say I blame you then. I broke my collarbone and separated my shoulder a few years ago and since then I don't like it when the wheels leave the ground.

Not that they left it much before.

If Nobel doesn't beat me up to much on Saturday I'm riding the geared 29er.

Justin - you could easily hit the gap on your 9r. Just be smooth.
