Nice !! try to get some pic's

I didnt make it out yesterday ... ate some bad chipotle and got REALLY sick like 2min after eating it :shocked:

[morethanjake543]

Awesome shots and awesome riding!

Respect points!

[FREERDR4LF]

had fun. was there for over an hour and a half. started out with me and another rider who said he rode his DH bike all the way from Arco Arena area just to ride the park. within 10 minutes there were about 20 people there, the place was packed, it was awesome to see it so busy. i'll be hitting the park a few times this week so keep a look out for posts.

[FREERDR4LF]

headed there today, sometime after 330 or so. hope to see someone there.

[Connundrum1]

hmm, i might be able to met u out there dave. i'll see if i have enough gas to make it there!

[FREERDR4LF]

no excuses!! just get out there.

[Total Heckler]

I really had no idea where Folsom is and damn. I just mapquest'ed directions to there and its pretty far away. It says its 3 hours away. I might be willing to make a weekend trip out there. Looks like a lot of fun. Any more pictures?

[urble]

my mom lives like right next to that place (like quite literally). i rode by it and saw it was closed, but this coming weekend i head out there and have a look.

[Evil4bc]

I'm going to go pedal up there and see if the park's open today , might not be due to puddles .

So I should be there right around 3:30 today , thursday may 3

[Evil4bc]

Good session tonight ! yes I said tonight as I got out to the park around 5:30 and stayed untill it closed at 9:00 !!!!

I also did some "landscapeing " to the base of the wall ride and a few other areas that needed some help.

Get out to the MTB park in folsom this weekend , it gonna be a epic session !!! This past rain did us good !

[Mordax]

what kinda stuff is at this said park?
im up in redding but i might be able to cruise down some weekend to check it out

[DUKESofTAH0E]

lets set up a huge session on sunday any body else in?

[FREERDR4LF]

sunday is auburn day. unless it's in the late afternoon. or if it's this afternoon, that would work. the bike park is awesome but i wouldn't skip auburn shuttles for it. but going to the park afterwards would be fun.

That's a good plan. While I could session that place all day, I'd definitely get a little burnt out after an hour or so. Let's hit it up after shuttles.

PS: Kyle dropped out. So did Andrew. I have another kid who's coming, though. Shuttling will still work, except he'll be switching off on my bike. That means you'll get to ride twice as much. Good thing? Don't let all of that pedaling get to you! ;)

Hey let's get back on topic here guys , start your own thread for your drop runs , or jsut man up and ride to the top like I do :disgust:

Sick !!!!

You wont believe the lip I put on the wallride last night !!!

ok see you around 3:00:clapping:

[morethanjake543]

We were there around 2:30 through 3:30. . . give or take fifteen minutes either way.

I ended up being a hack and bent a crank arm and Dave (FREERDR4LF) ended up snapping a chain. Oh well, at least the wall ride seemed smooth today. And, not to mention, there are a few fun lines onto and off the starting mound. Yay!

That really funny we must have jsut missed you , Kris showed up to my house at around 3:30 and I was still rebuilding my fork .
So we might have got out there at around 4:00 or so .

Yea the new lip on the wall ride is much smoother , I also built a new tabletop lip that Kris was launching into the wall .

The starting hill isnt exactly were I want it to be but the new hips are fun !!

[morethanjake543]

Are you hitting that jump into the wall ride? Dave and I must be really lazy, because all that pedaling scared us away. Seems pretty fun, though.

[mtbikermark]

Is the folsom mtn bike park fun on a 7" fully or is it best enjoyed on a hard tail. I only own the former...just checking out if it is worth the drive.

That wall ride looks sweeeet.

[DUKESofTAH0E]

i gota give brad props on the work he's been doing out there. that lip into the wall was so perfect. it made a hack like me able to launch into it. night session tomorrow or tuesday?

[ServeEm]

I heard those brakeless bmx'rs are actually 30 yrs old. But I guess the kid reference is somewhat accurate being that haven't grown up. I mean hell, they're still riding bmx bikes.:monkeydance:
