Any street riders around Brainerd/Walker, etc?

[SICKGNAR]

I'll be up there on vaca the week of July 4th and I'm bringing atleast one of my bikes, but I really can't justify dragging the SX due to the lovely lack of anything that's not sand or paved! So I'll bring the Riot. Prob going to hit Brainerd, it's been awhile but I think I remember seeing stuff that would be potential ride elements now. Be nice to have a pawtnah!
If not, honk as you cruise by me...

For street riders, well we got nothin' really. There is a BMX crowd up here, but not a lot. So, if you want to rip it up, let me know, I'll let them know.

[SICKGNAR]

You ride any street or "urban?" And are the BMXicans 26" friendly? They're silly little children here and apparently I'm just not cool. :( How will I ever survive?
Anything stashed away that's fully-worthy around there yet?? I can bring both bikes!

[Bikerkid]

I moonlight as a street rider, but I'm more trials. As for the BMX'ers they are just crazy locals, who are friendly as long as you don't make waves. As for the fully, I don't think your going to need it for anything we have around here, most of the stuff is kinda tame, but I'm not too up on my Brainerd street seen.

[SICKGNAR]

Trials or trails?? I'm fully down with riding with a trials guy, I dig that sh!t. I was actually getting into that before I went pure street. All the same to me, just different speeds...

[Bikerkid]

Trials, the slow kind. I can either bring my trials bike, or my STP, depends on what is going to be thrown down.

i'm building a bike for some street riding and should have all the parts i need by monday. as for street stuff i haven't seen a whole lot but didn't you say bikerkid that some people were building some trails up at ski gull?

[SICKGNAR]

Oh c'mon, you gotta have some ledges, skinnies, wallrides, etc??
And I really don't care what bike you wanna ride, bikerkid, I'm just looking to roll around and find something fun. I don't do anything but concrete with the hardtail(I've only got 60mm of travel on the fork), and not into dirtjumping at all, really. I've got the SX for big gaps and trails, no point in trashing the street bike on dirt!

[manual63]

Yes!! Finally someone called it "Street". That's what it is. "Street Riding" is so much cooler than calling it "Urban Assult"....:sick:

[SICKGNAR]

To me "urban" is what you do on fullys in the off season or just bombing. Big stair gaps, drops to flat, and yard jumping is urban assault. I think there's a fine line between trials and street as well, and that would just be the speed at which you hit an obstacle. I love watching those guys who tread back and forth between the two. So sick...

[Bikerkid]

I don't really care what bike I'm on, just as long as I'm on a bike.

[SICKGNAR]

Now THAT I can dig!
I'll PM you guys with my digits, etc. I'll be at the old Sand Lake resort, kind of in the Hackensak, Longville area. HOPEFULLY I'll have phone service! I'll be there from June 30th to July 7th. And if you guys wanna hit some of the other towns around there, i'm DEFINATELY down!
Sweet! This might be a great vacation after all!

[Bikerkid]

Sweet, I'm in Pequot, but I can drive. As for other towns, I'm game for anything, I'll let the BMX'ers know so if any of them are game, they can tag along.

[SICKGNAR]

That would be awesome! Tell them I wanna learn 360 bunny hops while I'm there, and my wallrides are sketchy at best. Wanna up my game.
Oh, by the way.. just so you don't freak out when I show up... I'm a tattoo'd 34 year old going on 16!

[Bikerkid]

Don't worry, I'm just a big 12-year-old, so you will fit fine with everybody up here.
