I am in for 4/22, I have been meaning to get up and check out the A2 loop stuff anyways. On a thread hijack note, anyone looking for an extra carpool to Mass-O-Nuthin, Toledo area here. Looking to leave friday after work.

I assumed he was talking about that, since it is in two weeks and he is posting in the freeride forum, but I could be wrong.

we have a full truck heading down friday morning.

Looks like a buddy and I are in if it's Sunday. We'll be rocking our freeride/dj singlespeeds, so we may be hoofing it on any tough climbing between stages.

Hunter, looks like Sunday will get a better turnout. Maybe it's time to make the call :P
I'm thinking I'm gonna bring the Dirtbag... it's gonna suck for the XC portions, but I need to get some seat time on it before Massenutten.
I'm just here to ride...

I updated it a while ago!

Sunday it is, at 2? We don't have to ride trails to get to the stuff.....you can make it like a 3 mile ride on paved path/dirt path ect, if that's what you guys would prefer. There is only one climbing part in Bluffs that is a little steep, but that's it.

Also, the a2dh is riding fast, rocky and loose right now. I'm holding on reaaal tight when I'm pinned on my Remedy, if that gives you some prospective. That's open to session as well.

I'm still undecided if I want to try and drag Xander down there or not. It has the recipe for being awesome, or terrible, not much in between with a 6 year old.

well,

you could take the kiddos here (a2 hands on museum)

(I don't know much else about what they're into at that age. I make people drive me to construction sites so I could watch bulldozers)

Then go get 6-8 laps in at the dh trail in an hr, tune in the bike, and X rides a bit. The berm is literally taller than he is hahaha

Sounds good. I set it up so 2-3 of the runs are based out of island park. You won't have to pedal anywhere.



OH. NEEDED: 3 FRS (walkie-talkie) radios. Any of you guys holding?

Hunter, last time I went down there we rode from the dirt jumps, to who knows where since I was following and we took sidewalks and paths and bridges and parking lots.....is there a place to park nearby the two track we took to the top of the hill that had the trails running down it?
