Sheaffer april 29

[redneckp3ngu1n]

Beautifull. No clouds dry trails but not very dusty. I was out from about 10:00 to 11:30. If the weather tomorow is like it was today than tom. will be another great day to ride

I probably saw you. I was there from 10 to about noon, though I was working on my bike for the first 45 minutes trying to get it ready for the race tomorrow. I was on a yellow singlespeed.

I saw several places where the trail kinda looked like it had been moved further out around some turns, but with no bench cut. I came across 3 or 5 like that and everyone had me thinking, "That isn't going to last. Was that intentional? Is it now supposed to go that way?" Guess I need to put in another Schaeffer work day so I know what's going on out there.

Thanks to whoever re-painted the blazes.

Its hard to tell what ur saying. Like the trail splits in a turn and there are two line trough it?
I dont remember anyone on a yellow single speed but maby u remember a fugly kid on a giant reign with his sister and dad

[redneckp3ngu1n]

OOh man i remember u. I just looked at ur blog in ur sig. U where tryin the log ride near the white and yellow intersection. :D I was the kid who tryed it also. I got it both ways about 2 min after u left :D

Cool deal. I've never really tried anything like that before. I guess I need to practice 'em so I can ride them like you can.

I wondered if that might have been you. I wanted to ride the logs some more but I had to go put more air in my fork, it kept bottoming out.

Stand up but try to keep ur center of gravity low. its eayser doing that log from the downhill side up believe it or not. keep in a smooth gear (easy for single speed) and smoothly pedal ur way across. the other way ( the way u where tryin them) the trick is to get enough speed so u dont have to pedal down the log. If u wanna add a small ammount of style try wheeling and piviting off the log at the end

Not only can you ride that log uphill and downhillsides, you can do it wheelying and styling?!!?

:eek:

Ugh
im not saying i have any style and im not trying to come across as an arrogant big shot (i can ride a log... so who cares) . I am saying that if u dont want to be bored and wanna have a little more fun getting off the log you can just do a wheelie drop. :D it looks alittle more stylish too (not saying its a trick or difficult just looks kinda cool)

[treeskier]

That's still way cool. :)

[redneckp3ngu1n]

r u being sarcastic or truthfull. Its hard to tell online

[treeskier]

... because I'd make a mess of it, trying that.
