We are going....but we won't be riding the beast. Wife wants to ride her angry bike....so we are going solo.
Angry bike FTW!
What time are you starting, and are you just doing Beek's? I was thinking extra credit, but that enthusiasm may dwindle if it's 135 out there.
"Angry bike." Sounds scary.
Well golly gosh darn, it's my wife's book club tomorrow night.... which puts me on kid duty. Sorry guys gotta mis this event
I am up for trying this next Tuesday to break my black star virgin status if anyone wants a repeat
A few of us climb it regularly! Throw out a time and you may get a taker... You'd probably have fun on the single tracks on the way down, instead of the road. I knew the first 4 starting from the golf ball, but J showed me two new ones the other day.
Thanks to all who came out. Nice, hot ride.
Sunset was pretty nice up there.
We did ride. We got a later start than the slow group and the middle group. My wife forgot to confirm the 6:00 start time, so we were waiting for a rider @ 6:30.
We finally got rolling. We had 7 in our group....6 SS's. Ray and my wife haven't been riding their SS's so they didn't make it all the way up. However she was killing it on the climb up to Hidden Ranch....then again she really didn't have an option.
Temps were warm to start. Cooled down nicely towards the top.
Just past the 2 cattle gate ran across a nice sized scorpion. From there up, my legs started bleeding out any energy they had(guess I should have scheduled having blood drawn more than 4 hrs before a ride).
Made it up to Beeks right at sunset. Perfect timing. Hung out and socialized for a bit before heading back down. Really nice temps on the way down, but humid back at the Tree Farm.
Good times.
Didn't drag the tandem out? Seems like a good ride for that.
Got it!We would have, but my wife had already committed to riding the SS with a friend.

But it's great for the flats!!!I witnessed true love last night. True love is not killing your husband and leaving his bones for the vultures after he puts a 34 tooth on the front of his wife's single speed.
