Someone posted this over at PMBA. It is definitely the coolest trials video I've seen.

Enjoy.

Thanks guys for a great time! Sorry you couldnt make it this time mbike. If I try it again this year I will let you know.

Hey! Some of you may remember me. Its been a while since I was on the site. I moved out of the valley and up to Delaware Water Gap.

The new VMB caps are in and will be available for purchase at the April meeting.
This way you can save money by not having to pay for postage!

For pictures or information check out the VMB Store on this website...so bring your $15 to the meeting (cash or check are fine)! :poke:

Me and the wife will be vacationing in Colorado this summer and plan on doing a decent amount of mountain biking :smile:. The issue I am having is choosing where to go. It needs to be within a reasonable drive (4 hours or so) from Denver. It would also be nice to stay in a town area where we can walk for dinner/beer after riding :beer: - so lodging options and the town are a factor, not just the biking. I have looked into different places but I having trouble deciding where is best. So far Crested Butte and Aspen/Snowmass seem to have pretty good potential.

I had a few hours to get a ride in. I asked Kiese who has even fewer hours due to 85 kids. We rolled to jordan to putz around. I was dressed in my stuff, which i know looks kind of "too much," but that's all i got. These two guys were across from us with DH type of bikes and we all did the typical "head nod". I yelled, have a good ride, and he came over and asked us if we knew the trails b/c they were frisbee golfers. We enthusiastically abliged(sp), why not, right!!!

I started this topic to see if there is anyone else who would be interested in late morning / early afternoon rides. Seems most weekly rides take place after 5 PM. I work 3:30 PM til midnight, Monday through Friday so riding during the week for me is around 10 or 11 AM. Anyone interested in maybe weekly rides during this time?

So I am leaving the Doctors office yesterday flying high, because I got the green light to start riding on moderate stuff, i.e. Jordan and the Jake. WaHoo!! I'm on the phone with Abbie to tell her the good news. :thumbsup:

Does anybody have a hard shell bike case (for taking my bike on a plane) that you could rent me? It needs to fit one mountain bike. Here's the catch - I need it for about 5 weeks (June 20 - July 28). Just posting the question hoping someone has a case collecting dust somewhere that you know you won't need for a while. If you have anything, please send me a private message. Thanks. Scott.

We'll yesterday i went into the city and got there in record time since i drove. The plan was to meet up with Jamie again who was ordered to hydrate before my arrival (see 2 blogs ago to see why). Sarah and i met him on the west side of the GW bridge at fort Lee historical park. We did a 3hr ride up river road into the palisades. It was ridiculous to see how many roadies were out. Looked like a benefit ride was going on . We got to the car free part of river road where we came across a huge rock slide blocking the road. this took literally 5 minutes to get over.
