Flock in the Woods: Labor Day Edition

I'll leave the date up to you guys, either Saturday the 4th or Monday the 6th. Either way we will be riding at Bavington and the ride will start at 10:30 am. 29ers, ss, and cross bikes will be right at home at Bavington.


also, no photoshop this time but this is the album of the ride:

any carpoolin happening? my mtn biking is hindered by lack of car.


caitlin

I also lack car.


Carpooling would be awesome, otherwise for car-less people, I'd be happy to split the cost of a zipcar.

what would be a good central meeting place to carpool? dippy?


cburch
2010-08-26 19:32:34

At this point I could do either. I think I will be able to use my girlfriend's car, and if so I can bring one other person - will confirm closer to the date of.


Dippy works for me as a meeting spot.

Dippy works, and is close to several zipcars if that becomes necessary.

Either date looks vaguely doable for me at this point.


Assuming I can actually make it, I'll have room for one extra person and bike.

If you do it on Monday, I can potentially ride more people, and might also have a loaner SS(someone would need either SPD shoes or flat pedals to ride it I have extra of niether).


I just hope bavington isnt a jungle at the very least the race loop normally gets cleared for the Month of Mud.


This would be the perfect post 24 hours of springs recovery ride.

I'll have my new 29er by then, so I'm in for sure. I can hold 3 bikes on the roof of my car, and 3 on the trunk rack, and fit 5 people in the car. I'd be happy to help if anyone needs a ride.

cburch
2010-08-30 19:19:24

My preference is Saturday since I have a Labor Day party Sunday.

Ok folks. It's going to be saturday the 4th. Meet at dippy at 9am if you need a ride. We will be leaving dippy at 9:30 sharp. If you want to meet us at the trail head here's the map we will start the actual ride around 10:30. There will be a couple jumping off points if people need to leave or just don't want to ride anymore but be ready to ride for two or three hours.
