The "where are you riding?" thread

[ATLien_325]

I'm hoping one of the mods can sticky this. I think it would be easier for everyone to post in this thread rather than make separate threads of where you plan on riding so if someone else on here wants to join it's easier to stay connected.

I'm planning on riding tomorrow. Not sure where though. I'm up for trying a different area/trail this time. So I'm all ears.

Dude!? Ever seen Criminal Minds?!

#1 resolution... Ride it like I stole it!!

Haha, well it doesn't have to include specifics. It's always fun to ride with other people.

I've started a Meetup Group to organize group rides at Sugarloaf Peak Trails east of Yuma. First ride is today at 1:00. Intended as an low-key, introductory sort of ride with beginners encouraged. Desert Mountain Bikers of Yuma (Yuma, AZ) - Meetup I also have a thread on here related to trail-work on these trails. http://forums.mtbr.com/trail-buildin...az-999828.html

Today, in just a couple hours, me and a couple of friends are riding in Oracle...just north of Tucson at Golder Ranch Trail Systems and The Chutes.

Tomorrow, we are going to ride all of Honeybee & Badlands!!!

Fun times ahead!

Its a good idea in theory, and I believe it has been tried here before, and did not "stick". I have found much better luck with this using facebook groups.

Crank Yankers has the most activity these days: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crankyankers/
And if you are in to Single Speeding https://www.facebook.com/groups/singlespeedaz/
If you live on the South West siiiiiide Estrella Cyclists is AWESOME https://www.facebook.com/groups/160049124171820/

Just seems much easier to communicate on FB than on these forums. But if you think you can get this threat to "stick" that would be cool also

Doing my best. I didn't know people were on facebook more than the forums. I'm on the eastside.

Good look with your surgery.

[waltaz]

Good look with your surgery.

Went well 3 1/2 weeks ago...started running a few days ago. The doc will tell me on Monday when I can start riding.

And yeah; it's been cold and/or wet since my surgery, so I'm not missing it too much!

That's good to hear. The cold is something I still don't like, but after 30 min, I'm pretty warm from riding.

ATLien, I am East Valley too. I am riding Hawes in the afternoon around twice a week. Will send you an invite if i get something planned out with some notice.

[Evil Patrick]

Either Sweetwater or TMP, depending on a last-second choice I'll make when I get to the stop sign.

So Tucson or Tucson? Sweet. I hope this decision doesn't give you anxiety.

Chandler is not on the east side of Arizona!

Haha. Let's say East Valley to be fair.

May go ITT the AES APC route I missed last weekend and/or ride/HAB up the AZT on Montana Mtn. I'm leaning towards both.
