Saturday Early Big Group Ride

Met up at Landing.  Big group:  XX, W, KR, MC, Trevor, Seibold, Tim, Timmy, Mike, Ebae, McNeely, was that it??  Most of us on single speeds save for a few.

Renegade>Nacho>Belmont Woods>Rockburn Branch up the right>Ridge>Valley View (enter Tracy)>Swimming Prohibited>Vineyard>CCBC (exit Tracy)>Santee (James yard saled in the skunk cabbage rock garden)>Old Skool Charcoal>Sawmill>Hilltop broke into 3 factions for the downhill (me, Jon, and Mike did Drugs)

Jon had no side effects from the Drugs, but Mike had a busted der hanger and I got a front flat;-(

I changed my flat on Gristmill and told the group to push onward.  Then I took Gristmill>Swimming Prohibited>Levering>Lawyers so I could make it home in time for gurlz to ride;-)

Sorry kids!  No map today...Garmin battery was dead;-( 


I was sporting the newest reincarnation of the Groundhog 2X8 with a shorter fork than the last experimental ride.  Fork came off a Bianchi Sass and has just about 3mm of clearance for my Maxxis Ignitor 29X2.1 tire.  The fork has still got a too-short steerer but the compression plug has a better purchase on this setup.  Stem/headset still nice and tight after the ride.  The bike rode real nice and proved a good log-hopper/climber/descender.
