Hucktoberfest in Big Bear !(Bikes, Beers and Thin Air) 10/20- 10/21

[Kid A]

Looks like a few of the Old Skool Riderz and STR gang including myself may be heading to Big Bear for the weekend of Oct 20th - 21st.

Appears we may already have a full cabin (will post up if anything opens up) but welcome any and all who want to join in for some riding and make day trip and/or secure another place to crash, err sleep at night

Will include bikes and beers (perhaps including some non bike carnage at the Hotspot).

Plan is to roll into head up to BB Saturday ad ride Sta and Sunday. J- Dirt working on specific trails

Hope you can join in

[FONT=Arial]10 Commandments of Biggest Bestest Big Bear Mountain Bike Weekend Ever (Volume 2…Same as Volume 1)[/FONT]

1. [FONT=Arial]Thou shall share in trip activities (e.g. planning, securing cabin, driving, pick-up food/drink, cooking, fixing bikes, expenses, etc.)[/FONT]
2. [FONT=Arial]Thou shall ride hard and drink harder[/FONT]
3. [FONT=Arial]He who lies victim to an "Event" (a.k.a. fall / crash / burn / mech failure / forgotten item / etc.) buys a round of beers; each subsequent Event will require additional procurement of said alcoholic beverage[/FONT]
4. [FONT=Arial]Thou shall bring their "A" game and not make excuses for weak riding, drinking and smack talking[/FONT]
5. [FONT=Arial]Thou shall not make folly of the other participants riding skills, hairline, weight, size of (clown) bike, efficiency and speed of alcohol metabolism, rude bodily functions…correction ALL the above are generally acceptable (and encouraged) areas of focus for smack talk[/FONT]
6. [FONT=Arial]Thou shall roll with and not cry like a baby when on receiving end of smack talk[/FONT]
7. [FONT=Arial]Thou shall not call home every 10 minutes to check in with their wife, child, girlfriend, dog, etc[/FONT]
8. [FONT=Arial]He who passes out first may be victim to sophomoric and juvenile pranks[/FONT]
9. [FONT=Arial]Thou shall not forget the "golden rule" of what happens in Big Bear, stays in Big Bear. This is only superseded by the super special golden rule of stay on your side of the cabin / tent[/FONT]
10. [FONT=Arial]Thou shall enjoy and have a great time riding and hanging in Big Bear and always watch out for your riding STR bubbs and brahs![/FONT]

I think I'll have a leg up on the "crap riding" award. I think I'm going to break in the SS this weekend. I figure, if I can survive this weekend, it couldn't get much worse/better.

B2daU2daM2daP!

Yes, I know STR b-day and Noble are rides on same day, but if interest exists Big Bear is still on for that weekend.

J-Dirt and Ghixon working on finding some new dirt to ride.

Some stuff they are "investigating" includes...

Start at the Discovery Center, up Polique Cyn to Delamar Mtn, back down to Holcomb Valley Rd, head east and down Van Deussen or (longer 25+)finish up at Baldwin Lake. Then Hi-way back to Discovery Center.
Just a thought...nothing's carved in stone..Yet!
Greg, any thoughts? We'll be in your neighborhood 10/20-21


All others welcome to join in for ride and off dirt carnage
