Lynch's Woods Volunteer Day - Sunday May 13??

Hi folks:

Can we all check our calendars to see about getting together early on Sunday, May 13 at Lynch's Woods for a volunteer trail maintenance day? I've got an 18" bar chain saw, loppers, shovels, leaf blower, hedge trimmer.

I worked yesterday getting the latest trees out of the way, and all is clear timber-wise, except for one log that I can't remember where the darn thing is.

Probably the biggest thing needed is the new vegetation is closing in over the trail and it needs some discrete cutting back. The limbo log on the first trail after the prologue is going to take a bigger saw than what I've got.

I can supply a cookout and refreshing beverages for everybody too.

Stumpjump Race This Sunday

Who's up for doing the Stumpjump race this Sunday? I'm going up for the "You kids get off my lawn" class at 10:30 -- and have room for 4 more riders and bikes in the truck. I need to get back by mid-afternoon, though, so I can't stay for the Expert stuff. If anybody's interested in carpooling, let me know.

So everybody is talking about doing this thing. I cannot decide as I really want to limit my races this year. These 24 hour loopy things tend to get kind of pricey as well. If I decide to do it I am going solo, I just don't feel like putting in the cooperation to making the team thing work. Plus if I ride solo, I don't effect anyone else's race. So there you have it. Now discuss and ride hard.

2007 Harrells Kit

Come see Paul at the shop to get your new colors for the '07 season. In stock bibs, shorts, jersey, vest, jackets and thermal jersey. New for this season - arm warmers and knee warmers. Check on sizes, shorts seem to be cut small and the arm warmers cut big. Kit looks very professional out on the road & trail. Support your local shop and show your colors.

Thanks Paul

No Excuse For No Base 4-15-2007

Alright Monty this one's for you. This is the last chance for Team Tripping On Lactic Acid to get ready for the PMBAR.

So off we go to Harbison for a medium intensity 5 hour ride. I am hoping to keep it right at 10 mph so we can get close to 50 miles in. I know there will be some stops as well so plan for as many hours as your kitchen pass can afford.

LATE EDIT!!!!!!!!! Because of the forecast, we are riding Harbison around 9:15 on Saturday and Manchester at 8:00AM on Sunday.

Where: Manchester
When: 4/15/2007 8:00 AM
Why: Because we can
Who: You know you all need to
How: With your bikes duh, for me: one gear so try and keep up

Mountain Goat Epic 4/7/2007

Enduro freaks abound. Look out, Mr. Goat Epics has organized a ride involving some pretty hefty mileage. Approximately 50 miles with 11 grand of climbing.

I will most likely be pulling the caboose on this ride and I look forward to it. We are starting at the Black Mountain trailhead at 9:00 for those interested. If you are truly interested and you want more info, let me know.

Lynches Woods on Saturday 7th?

Since the temp is going to drop this weekend, I'm considering getting a good cup of Joe and heading up for a jaunt to Lynches for a hammer session on the mtn bike.

Edit: Toby and I are meeting at the Publix Parking lot (at the end of Broad River) at 8:40. We are going to head up to Newberry for about 2.5 hrs of riding. I can take one more. Give me a buzz if you want to go or leave a message on this thread. I'll check it in the morning.

Any takers to car pool?

I would like to get there fairly early so we can get back.

Let me know!
