after some sick riding this weekend; 5 hrs at rays on saturday followed by vultures knob on sunday, i am ready for the mountain bike season. all this week is supposed to be dry and vultures knob was dry and fast today. i would like to get out and ride a couple days this week. if anyone wants to ride vultures this week (late afternoon), post here. this weekend is also supposed to be nice, so we should definitely get some good riding in.

i wanna ride saturday possibly, but definitely outside. the knob or possibly mohican wilderness would be fun, anyone into downhill?

i haven't ridden the dh at mohican yet, but have been wanting to for a while. but the knob is in as good a shape as it gets. on the other hand, rays is sick too... who would have thought you could have this sort of mt biking dilemma in ohio? i would prefer to do something outside, wait to do rays when it is raining, or at night.

yeah man, thats like skiing park on a pow day!!! the dh courses at wilderness are amazing. i have a pretty stout rig, 6.5 inches of travel on each end, and my bike is not quite enough in some of the spots. the courses might be fucked up though because of that damn ice storm, lots of downed trees. knob might be a good option.

if i said it, it must be the truth!

as much as i want to go to rays again soon, i woud rather go somewhere free and outdoors. we don't get this kind of weather in the spring too often, so i don't expect it to last. so i am for sure going to vultures this weekend, probably saturday and sunday. once it starts to rain again i can think about rays. so who is down for vk this weekend?

would a p2 work where? if you're talking about rays, then a p2 would be great, but at vultures knob you'd have some trouble. the knob is a technical xc trail.

a p2 would work fine at vultures knob. none of the hills are that bad on an xc bike, so you will just have to work a little harder. if you wanna see something funny, come watch me and one of my friends ride there this weekend on our downhill bikes. neither of us have other mountain bikes, so we are just using our dh rigs. it should be a leg burning comedy hour. haha

you're right mark, i didn't mean to discourage you from going vince, i just meant you might have to work a little harder. the bike can handle it no problem.

hey, i rode vutures on 45 lb freeride bike with 8 inches of rear travel. it was a bitch and a half, but i made it. a P2 would be a breeze compares to that.
but im down lika clown, wherever everyone is riding, im there, just call me.

i'd probably be down for noon o'clock on saturday, we should just all meet at the end of the driveway by the sign or something, those trailers in the back have sexual predator written ALL over them
