I know some of you will have some free time...I hope....who's up for some trail riding...anyone???

I know you're down SD way, I've only ridden Noble once... like 2 years ago.

I know its like a million miles but WTF..I have nothing goin the 26th. All my biatches like Rabie are on the injured reserve or on Kwanza retreats.
Let me know if you'd be down for that. I could possibly scrounge up another rider. ......maybe even Rabie...he still has 1 good shoulder.

Hey D,
I'm kicking around on the 27th if you're patient (way outta shape...) and would like to give me a tour.
I just got rid of my car and picked up a truck that has a crew cab - I can handle 4 riders and bikes. So if others from the OC area want to head down, or if there is a spot to shuttle...

I may be good to ride on Sunday, but it's too early to tell. Things are still popping around in there. I'll let you know.

bathrooms at 9:30...i have to get my VG's doughnuts in the morning :drool: :drool: :drool:

Including me, sdminitrucker, and friends there is 7 of us for sure, NCrider is still a maybe. We'll have 2 trucks and a yukon xl and we will be shuttling, i dont think we have any room for others to shuttle, but we will have room for bikes if someone else can drive a car. o and if it doesnt rain maybe ATT after?

FYI I ride a black vp-free

Looking at the forecast I'm going to bail - really don't feel like driving 1.5 - 2 hrs and not be able to ride...

I'll double check the forecast in the morning just in case...

Rain is comming and Noble rocks are extra slippery when wet.

It was a very fun ride. Barely any clouds overhead. I had lots of fun. The ride made me hate my DJ 1 though. Anyone have any suggetsions on getting a new fork for my bighit?

downhillzeypher

12-27-2004, 08:09 PM

Super T... it's awesome, LOTS more adjustable than my old DJ. If you have the 04 Bighit with DJ, then go yourself a favor and swap out that fork. Your hands won't fatiuge so quickly (the DJ are waayyy oversprung on a BH) and you'll look cooler too.

BMXman

12-27-2004, 10:28 PM

yeah I would say super T or a Z1....D

Yeah... a great big :nuts: to the weather channel on-line!!! I checked at 1:30 am and they claimed it would be raining at 6:00 am!!! :mumble:

SDminitrucker

12-28-2004, 03:55 AM

THE WEATHER WAS EXCELLENT!!!

BTW Zepher i have an 02 bighit wiht the dj 1. HMMM so super T. i'll look into it. THats what all these guys were telling me on the way up.

downhillzeypher

12-28-2004, 04:16 PM

You have lots of options... shiver, boxxer, monster (if you weigh like 34802374lbs) white brothers etc... but super t's are widely avalible, just go to like a race somewhere (Fontana has 2 next month) and start asking around for a used fork.
