    coal canyon 7/6

    Anyone feel like climbing up Coal Canyon Sunday 6:30 am depart. Meet up at the ice rink off La Palma and Gypsum Canyon. I have one other SSufferer so far and one geared. Looking for some more takers. The Destination will be the Doppler ball near Beeks place. All are welcome, its roughly 3500ft of climbing so its not for the faint of heart. I want to start early do to the predicted high temps over the weekend.

    Ouch. Kudos. Coal on a SS? I'd rather wake up with my head sewn to the carpet. Have fun though.

    I went down it the other day....the middle section is really soft and loose right now.

    Also warms up really quick out there.

    I know its loose I have just climbed it the other day. Some things are notworth doing unless its challenging. As you well know mtnbikej I know you enjoy to suffer i have seen some of your rides.
