It was a long and bumpy ride down. There are more stairs than you can see, behind me.

Sunday should be good.

I suggest parking at the top of the park off 42nd street.

Meet about 9:30-10am.

I haven't mastered the second part, to keep going. I've only been biking a few weeks.

I think i can be there around 9:30.

I don't suggest you try. The landing has been a swamp ever since tropical storm Gaston re-routed the creek.

Sooooooo, 9:30 Pocahontas State Park? I'm going to have to try this and meet some of you. Never been there, should I be investing in equipment other than my helmet?

Not really. This'll be a casual XC ride. There are some technical trail features to play on but nothing huge. A camelback is a good thing to have. It's looking like it'll be at 10am.
