Old & Slow - 2012

[doodooboi]

Day is crazy over here bud. Plus I still have to deal with the tree. Today is just not a good day.

Just build an 2nd floor extention through the tree so you can have an offical tree house! That would be so sick!!

We will see if I have a hole later today.

[Eazy_E]

I'm probably gonna come out today. Look out for a young guy on a black Motobecane FS. I'll be there about 4:45.

[azdog]

I will be heading out later Tim. My plan is to track down doodooboi using his musubi scent.

You really went there!

I'll be out there around 4:45-5 with a NEW Reverb remote; LOOK OUT!

MTBP

DDB, Dog and now the pilot. Leaving gear at home is sounding better all the time.

Don't break it so you can ride Friday with the true Old & Slow Crew.

How did the Pineapple ride go last night?

[MTB Pilot]

I felt OLD and was riding pretty slow. Half energy and sloppy riding. The new 5.10 Ravens were less than impressive.

I think I might just have to hang it up!

[doodooboi]

How did the Pineapple ride go last night?

pretty good, besides the just the inital build bugs. Have to get a new BB and a new shim so I can fit my damn Gravity dropper. Other than that it wasn't too bad at all. Weather turned out to be pretty cool, not as hot as I anticipated. Can't wait till tuesday now. Let's get another Hairball session in then swing around over to some sassy or chees for a double whamy. Then some brews, I vote to have both Tuesday and Thursday as a thirsty ride.

[doodooboi]

I was also a little tired from my gym workout earlier that day.

[azdog]

How did the Pineapple ride go last night?

It was a good time. Doo was building his bike minutes before the ride as usual. Fun time with MTBPilot and Swampthang as well. I was also a little tired from my gym workout earlier that day.

Bro, will you explain to him. Showing up at the gym and looking at yourself in the mirror. Is not working out. Let alone a 2 a day.

[Cycle64]

They are called pecs, something you would know nothing about.

Come on. All that Hawaiian food he eats. He has the best set of man boobs around. Heck he will need a lift when he hits 40.

No bike today. Shooting for Thursday. Busy time of the year for me.

[Cycle64]

my first time I'm rolling consecutivly on thurs, tues rides, and you are once again not going to be there. I feel a consripacy here!!!!! Or you just don't like to ride with me!!!

Not at all buddy! I've enjoyed our rides together. Especially when we pick on that roadie AZdog. Being in the A/C business and 100 plus temps. Has more to do with it. I am going to try and make Thursday though.

You're not going today, cause I'm showing up!

Recap of tuesday's ride.
Tuesday was a such a looooooooong ride. Did hairball with no one from the O-n-S crew, but with a buddy of mine and his buddy. Decent time making it up, But once at the top my rear tire decides to grow a large tumor. Fixed that then made it down the first decend.

Side note, made it through the up and over rock and through the left hand chute all in one run down. First time ever for me!! yeah me!

After the second decend right after the left hand chute I get a flat on the rear. Fixed it with a tube from my buddy's friend's tube. Make it down the rest of the way and to the pedal back and I get another flat in the rear. So since we only have one tube between us three now and that tube is a Shrader and we all run Presta wheels it was time for patch jobs. My patch worked, but as we continued the other guy get's a flat. Since I am already on his spare tube(patched) we had to patch his tube. 4 patches later we finally run in to some kind riders who threw us a tube. Thanks again guys on the Specialized red epic riding back to Aunt Enchilada's. Now we finally on way back to the truck as we ran out of water 3 1/2 hours later. Longest shortest loop ridden on PmP for me! But at least we got out to ride..... hahahaha

No, but I came very close to eating it going down La De Da. I was going probably 20 MPH or so, and my front tire hit a rock just right. I have no idea how I saved it. It was GNAR!!!!!

Thankfully you were on a Clown bike. Anything less would have resulted in a crash. As you have no skill to make a save if needed.

DDB & DOG tossed every rock they could at me coming down VOAZ. I came close to riding off the edge once. But my amazing skills saved me.

[MTB Pilot]

Anyone riding this evening? Should be a little cooler and windy!!

I'll be out trying some new stuff...

MTBP

[doodooboi]

Well I'll be there. Hopefully you J-holes can wait for me this time. I was told last time (Cycle64) that 5:30 was the meet time. Well I get there and low and behold everyone's....... Trucks are there but no one waiting. Gone is the crew that I thought that loved me so! ugh....... Well since it'll be cooler is the time now going to be 4:30?

What are you talking about. Your post said Dog, Adam and you were doing Hairball Tuesday. You know I'm not ready for the big HB yet.

I can't be there until 5:30.

See even DDB has no clue what he was doing. Never emailed me the party info or hit me up to look at the Hadley hub. Sure can sure cry well if we leave at the time we said we were going to. What's next arguing over $5.00 change from a lunch tab.

whoa, as for the Hadley, I thought we agreed YOU contacting me cause I didn't want to take a day of riding away from you.

Now the Party I totally brain farted. I barely even let brian know. Shoot I barely knew if I was going. total lack of motivation on that day.

True to from I hardly ever know what I am doing until I am doing it! hahaha

I will only argue over the tip we put down for lunch never the change, come on now!

Hadley's fixed. It was never broken. Just not tightened correctly.

Neither of you would have a chance for the last chicken wing.

I'll be throwing my 'Python' around the trails tonight... 5:30. Let's see if I can keep my blood INSIDE this time

[Cycle64]

Well I'll be there. Hopefully you J-holes can wait for me this time.

Just a reminder so you don;t feel left out. Mr. Musubi we roll around 5:30 today.

I hiked yesterday too (to make it feel okay I called it scouting new MTB routes) around the hottest part of the day and the breeze made it not so bad actually. And I did find some decent route for my planned "El Ruta de Sonoran" through T-Bird park.

Want to ride this afternoon-what time?

Alright I'll do a AzDog excuse,

Banged out a 20+ miler on monday out at pMp, little C2C2C action. And do make it offical AzDog excuse I'll add my elevation gain! 2,233ft

Then started my packing and new bike building on tuesday. Worked at the shop on yesterday. See when your not that bad kind of brown you are busy with real life stuff, and not free to just roam the desert looking for a imaginary line to cross and calling it hiking!

Good enough for you two?
