Paul and I went to the Velo Park this morning and got a good mtb ride in. Just a little over an hour of riding but super fun. We are going to start riding there every Wednesday morning at 8am. Later in the year when it gets warmer we will be riding earlier. So this is an invite to who ever wants to come out and join you are welcome. We will be meeting at the Skate park at 8.

Eric's an Animal

Just have Eric pull him along. I know he is tough.

What, he's not riding already?

With both of your genes I would expect that he would be already to ride on his own by now:)

What a great morning!!

OK, the park was amazing this morning. Zero wind. Nice, cool, clear & sunny. Trails were buff but just slightly tacky from the weekend... literally a perfect morning. I even shot a little test footage with the helmet cam, getting the gadgetry dialed in for Moab. All systems go! I told Jamie I'd probably be riding alone last night... glad Terry showed, as we had a great ride. :)

Agreed!

The ride this morning was perfect! It's rides like this that get me all fired up to ramp up my riding. Thanks Eric!

Sorry

Yes sorry about not being there. I woke up with some serious back pain and won't be on a mt bike for a little. Went out yesterday and it just killed me. (man I am getting old)

Well get better

So did you have a wild wreck into a rock in the dark yesterday or what happened?

Not sure

I am really not sure. I got some xrays done to see what the crap is going on am I have a bulging disc. So I am doing all kinds of yoga crap to get it back into shape. So I am out of mountain biking for a couple of weeks until I can get that so it doesn't hurt so bad. I will still be doing some road riding.

Coolness

I just got home from work and checked the forum. That's awesome. Great video quality. I swear I was going faster than that though. : )

Nice stuff

Great video Eric! Hope I can be out on the trails in a month.

Beaut!

Another perfect Wed morning at the park. A little chillier than last time with a layer of sparkling frost on everything but it melting off quick once the sun came out. I didn't see another person until about 9am... and then only a couple people with dogs. Anybody who shows up at sunrise owns that place... what fun.

Dangit

Man I am sorry I wasn't there. I am totally bumbed that I couldn't go. Maybe by time you guys all get back from Moab I will be able to limp along with you all. Once I can I will be at the park.
