Anyone up for a ride after skiing tomorrow morning? We're planning to ride Dry Creek to Bobsled tomorrow (park on the road as you're going up to Red Butte Gardens). Probably start at 2:30? Anyone interested?

Utards: Ride tomorrow?
"Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, "Wow, what a Ride!"

I'd like to join you, but, alas, I cannot.

Why not go past bobsled and hit up the I-Street DJs
?
I might still be up at The Bird at 2:30, seeing as I'm waiting for phUnk and he probably won't show up until around noon.

Original post was for yesterday, but I think Mr.AG and Rotney might be going again tonight, not sure though. I somehow developed an ear infection late last night and am now pleasantly stoned on Lortab, antibiotics, and Zyrtec. I'm thinking if I ride tonight it will be something like the Quarry trail where if my lack of balance leads to me flopping off the trail I won't be rolling down the mountain too...

I wish I would've seen this, would've totally been up for it, rode up there around 5:30 yesterday, it was so damn busy, still fun though. Did a few laps on roller coaster this morning, such a fun ride, but a bitch of a climb.

Particle,
I might be up for a ride today, since no one wants to go dirt jumping with me

cool J--give me a call 5:30 or so. I'll be on my way home by then. (I don't have your # with me)
p.s. Phil, I did Dry Creek/Bobsled on Sat afternoon and holy crap! same deal--felt like I was riding a trail in L.A. or something. It was kinda funny after a while.

You guys need to take a trip up to hogden to ride sometime, i've seen 3 people on the trails all year. Thats about 5-6 days of riding.
I'd be down to ride tonight but I'm kinda in AG's state, i'm drunk on nyquil and working hard to breathe.

I would be up for a bobsled next time you guys go. I was up dry creek Sunday morning and thought I might be able to beat the rush. Didn't happen!
And for the biking challenged remember that bikes yield to all!! Especially on the downhill. Doing 30 mph on drycreek downhill and hoping people on foot get out of your way is unacceptable and will get us kicked off trails if not kicked in the freaking head for being a total dumbass.
flykdog, where do you ride in Ogden? I have rode some trails on the foothills including one that is called the corkscrew I think. skyline is always worth the trip as well as a ride that I don't remember the name of. It starts a little ways up the 12th street canyon and runs up to Snowbasin. That might of been the best ride I had in Ogden now that I think about it. I will let you know when I am in your area as it would be cool to hook up with a local who knows the ropes.
