Sweet. Well yeah we'll definitely ride when you get your bike up here. Do you know if there are any skateparks or dirtjumps around UW besides greenlake? Or is greenlake even open still?

I just drove by Woodland Park the other day, and I wasn't really paying attention, but I'm positive I saw the jumps still there. I hear they're completely legal, so I wouldn't worry about it. Also, if you haven't ever explored the wooded area above the dirt jumps, there are some drops and (kinda small) natural jumps in up in the wooded area. Nothing huge, but still fun to mess around on. I haven't ridden there for quite a while, though, so it could have changed.

By the way, I'm across town at SPU, and I'm always up for some riding.

was just at greenlake two days ago, they could use some love but the whole main line is doable and pretty fun. the street on campus is amazing too. let me know when you guys will be out and about and I may come join in the fun.

I'm down to ride pretty much whenever/wherever. I'm probably gonna do some riding tomorrow, not sure where yet though.

So I hit up the Greenlake jumps today. I hadn't been there for about 7 years, but they're pretty much the same, only not nearly as intimidating haha. Some of them definitely could use a little work, but they're decent. After riding for about an hour and a half and getting the whole main line a few times I decided to quit while I was ahead, since I'd had a few close calls on a jump with a bad kicker lip. Good day though!

bent^biker

is the one with the bad lip the second gapper (fourth jump overall)? we tried to carve out the center so it was a bit more rideable but they all really just need some more material to do them up right.

yeah that's the one. it was weird though because I was doing it fine at first, and then I just had this scary streak when I kept getting bucked.

I've got my P.2 that I was just shredding on earlier. I live up on 56th and 16th and would love to shred.

How'd you break your 40 Nate?

Hit a corner going pretty good in a drift and my front wheel caught a hole. It put a crazy load on it and the arch broke, any fork would have failed. Fox is sorting me out real quick so i'll be on it again soon.

I live in Greenwood, really close to Green Lake. I recently started riding again. I'm at Green Lake almost every evening. I don't have any friends who are into riding, so let me know if you want to hit the dirt jumps.

you dont have a bike you could ride anything on (unless you have your TOP built up already), but if you'll throw down some gas $ and i don't have to drive all the way to your house to get you then its on bro.

muddy beast
09-23-2007, 11:58 PM
Well I dont have my TOP built, or even purchased yet...I cant by **** till my boss OK's it (ugghhhhhh). But the stuff there cant be THAT bad on my bighit? And even if it is...it would be cool to take some photographicas and what not...who else you going with?

And I can put some money in for gas and probly get to you to get down there, but I'd need a ride back to my place...up to you I guess?

Edit: Blah...my mom just blew that idea up. Never mind.

I thought I'd introduce myself, I'm on Lander 2, and I'm definitely down for some urban/dirt jump sessions. My bikes are currently in Madison Park with some family but I'm thinking about keeping my jump bike in my room if there are some nearby jumps or skateparks.

freeridekid
10-01-2007, 03:17 PM
I'm on Lander 2 as well, crazy! Anyway yeah i'd definitely say its worth it to have your hardtail in your room. The greenlake jumps are like a 15 minute ride away and campus is pretty fun to ride.

I've got some plans at the IMA for today, but if the weather is good tomorrow lets ride.
