    Summer 2010 northeast Monkeyfest 7/15-7/18

    Wishing I was still back east so I could rip the trails with you all this weekend. Swilling beer, flat tracking, moon shine, and bean dip, all with a healthy dose of singletrack. Damn I wish I was there! :rant:

    Phoenix riding

    Kavu, thanks a ton for the advice. We hit up Hawes the first day and were surprised to see Titus handing out demo bikes all morning. We may not have hit the trails there in the best way, but we had a blast out there. Lots of fun to be on some high end bikes. I was worried I'd hate my Karate...

    Phoenix riding

    Hey SW Monkeys! I'm heading from Joshua Tree to Phoenix on Friday and wondering about any riding between here and there. Looking for "All Mountain" type riding. Singletrack (aka swoopy) is most welcome. My plan is to be riding Friday afternoon, climb in Queen Creek/Superstition Mountains...

    Monkeyfest minus less than a week...

    Congrats you two! I am sad that I missed out on a Monkeyfest. That was one of the highlights of my time out east. I am envious of the beer and the shady riding.

    what's up with hydration?

    He is a hiker who doesn't carry a bladder? Probably lives in a pretty wet climate then. When I was backpacking in the Sierras I could get away with two water bottles as most trails followed a very nice stream or ended at a lake. Out here in Utah I'll carry up to 10 quarts of water during the...

    Indiana Jones

    Brilliant! And yes, if you liked the originals then this is worth seeing. Over the top and corny, good the whole way through.

    I'm quitting my jorb to wander the country.

    Lincoln, Nebraska is worth the drive through Nebraska. Monkey Wrench Cycles is sweet. Good beer and pizza too. Remember, Wal-Mart parking lots are good for sleeping in if you need a place to crash. And most hotels have free wifi, just don't get caught.

    I'm quitting my jorb to wander the country.

    You are more than welcome at my place in St. George, UT. Beer sucks, but plenty of good riding. Hell, if you stop in Fruita for a while I'll head out and help show you around. Have fun on the road, I hope you've got some good tunes and some new tires. Cross country trips are the best!

    Move to Wellington!

    Wellington=wind Good bars though and some awesome food (there is a pizza place there that kicks ass!). I'm thinking of moving down there next winter for a few months to work as a tour guide. Last time I was there they offered me a job, hopefully they still need the help. So this means...

    Tire Recommendations...

    Where I rode the same tires for a year and a half while riding everywhere from Santa Barbara, to Mammoth, to Moab, to Vermont, and back across the country to Colorado and Utah. I really liked my Weirwolf 2.3s as a general trail tire, the Specialized Captain is serving me well, as is the...

    weekend project!

    Now you need some speakers and and a CD player/MP3 player hookup. Plus a cooler for beers. Then I'll come visit! :happydance: How is the riding in So Cal treating you? Hopefully you aren't too busy designing Barbie holders to ride.

    Performance art

    Like the person who bleeds and sh*ts all over a canvas and calls it a masterpiece of expression? Ya, the crap that passes through art colleges is amazing/revolting.

    Whats your occupation?

    Field Staff for a Wilderness Therapy Program. You know all those spoiled brats at the mall by your house? I march them around the deserts of Utah and make them into better people. Or, as some have implied, I get paid to undergo therapy.

    I just peed in a wine bottle.

    My former roommate used to do this when he was drunk. My bed was next to the window and I'd wake up in the middle of the night to him pissing a few inches from my bed. He almost got kicked out of the dorms the next year when a girl living below him complained about "splashback" hitting her...
