Stupid Bike Sunday


Stupid Bike Sunday was a new idea, and may not take off as planned. We had an out-of-town guest come in who wanted to go ride and wanted to keep the pace down a little. We decided that it was a good time for everyone to bring out their dusty bikes - the ones that don't get ridden very often. So, the invite was for (no offense) singlespeeds, cyclocross, retro builds with rigid forks, etc. Since we don't normally ride these types of bikes out on the trails, the pace definitley stayed down, and there were a few crashes and flat tires along the way. All in all, it was a good ride and good company, however, there are some sore body parts and bruised egos. Looks like these will get hung back up for awhile so we can get back to what we are used to. The good news is that we came up with a new saying. I can't remember what it is right now, but it will resurface, and it will probably be said way too often on future rides.

All I know is in certain parts the pace was snot rocket fast and I crashed a few times. Also, I am more sore and body tired than I have been for a long time. Red Dragon
