Iwan Kemp Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 Yeah, Morewood + Mintsauce convention. My buddy wants to know if he's allowed to ride his Tomac with us. Otherwise he's more than willing than one of you oke's MW! Anyway, if it's raining Tokai won't be busy. Last time I was riding there in the rain it was me, him and the couple of people doing a race. Man against machine or something.
parabola Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 Would like to join you fatcyclist, was keen for a ride this weekend. Will hopefully be there at 9. I'll blow away your Morewood convention with my Merida HT droo
droo Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 Tokai is going to be busy...I'll be there from 7:15... will shout hi when I come past!PS right of way is downhill on singletracks please! I don't think it's wise to argue with 15kg of airborne pointy metal at the best of times... especially when it's got as little respect for bumps as a Morewood...
fatcyclist Posted May 16, 2009 Author Posted May 16, 2009 Urgh, crappy weather and a warm bed...I'm staying indoors
Bos Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 You missed out! We didnt get wet at all..except for the mud and water from the bottom.the bunch consisted out of Myself, drew, crow, Singletrack, mintsauce, Savage(B) and a few other Morewoods. Did I mis someone? The trails were sweet and I crashed twice and very almost a third time on DH1 high speed section. It was rad riding with other" fast" guys, learning new lines and breaking more parts than on XC rides.the best part was we were on the trails for about 3 1/2 hours but no one even had a bike computer. Im bruised up nicely today. And it feels great.
Bionic man Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 Don't know if I saw any of you guys, (got there late as in my excitement I only packed water bottle and bike - left the rest at home) everyone was going hell for leather on the singletrack/jeeptrack. All I know is I spent over two hours on the mountain and my brakes were screaming like a banshee wailer but what a blast.
Bos Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 that might very well have been us. a group of about 6 guys training down the trail?

After yesterday's ride I decided it's time to stop bitching and work on my fitness...then had a KFC meal to celebrate. Anyone for droewors? All in all it was a fun day. Great meeting you okes and finally doing a ride together. We should do this more often. BTW, who is singletrack and Savage(B)? What were they riding?

I was behind him and just saw arms and legs and flying bike parts... the bike flew into that tree so hard his back wheel pinch flatted after he had hit the ground. Still wondering how he walked away from that looking like he did.
