Well, this past Sunday Brian and myself went out riding. Hit up the good ol campus area then had to go check out some rocks that Brian had found som other day... Wow is about all I can really say. I'll get some pics taken when this new layer of snow melts off but, they were sick. Just about the perfect size for riding on and tons of whack lines to attempt. I'll be riding those as much as possible prior to someone moving them.

Dave are you comming up to duluth this weekend?

Not sure. Kinda low on the income right about now and, since Brian just told be about those sweet rocks its kinda hard to say. Hard to go ride in a underpass when I can ride just about everything in the STC area. Have to wait and see what the weather brings but, as of now its looking like I might stay in town and session these rocks.

I don't blame you for not wanting to drive all the way up there. Thanks for the rock pics.:banana:

By next weekend, do you mean like the 25th,26th. I plan on coming down on Sunday the 26th so if we could try to make plans that day that would be awsome.
Hey John so it sounds like the the doc said that your limp wrist is healed up huh.

I'll be riding on both days if the weather is going to cooperate. John on the other hand, has some bad news for the wrist injury...

Thanks for posting the pics. Beutiful weather today.

yea, it was in a very dimmly lit place. The first pic is actually the reflection off a window. Thought I would try somthing weird. Turned out to be a beautiful day but a bit windy. Nothing major. My bike is now back to using the rear der, 19t ring, and Kool chain. The Shadow Conspircacy chain just wasn't working out for me.

Why didn't the shadow chain work? I never really like the look of a stock bike without a tensioner.

I think all I really needed was a tensioner to make it work ok. However, since it is such a wide chain I just dont think it was riding on the front ring the way that it should have been. Oh well, I'm too lazy to make a tensioner for now so I'll just run the good ol der.
