Posted up if you can make it.. Should be fun.

I was going to do the Leb ride for the first time this year, but I ride there to often and don't go to MH enough. Maybe I'll go.:etard:

I'll probably just be finishing when you guys start. I'm going to go right after work so I don't have to drive home and head back out again. If anyone is game...4pmish.

The ride start time is 6pm-ish or there about. So don't worry about trying to catch up. A no drop ride and having fun riding one of MORC's great trails how can you go wrong. :banana:
I double dog dare John to show up for the Fun. ;)
I'll be there by the way.

I didn't get to ride with you fast guys and gals last night but it was really nice to see everybody. Our group was fun and it was good to see some of the BC regulars there! :)

Thanks to everyone for a great ride. I hope to continue the fun in the coming weeks.
Pete and his "CREW" have done great work and the trail keeps getting better every week I ride it.

Thanks for the props JJ.
Any thoughts of changing one ride a month into trailwork? :D
The amount of time, sweat and blood (to mosquitos) that the "crew" - typically 2 or 3 people - have done so far this year is unusual, and deserves MANY, MANY THANKS!
It's likely that the changes will be less and less noticeable from week to week.

JJ is there every Thursday night for the Eriks Ride, they have a calander of Eriks rides on their web site. Now that Leb is getting over crowded I think more people are looking to other trails to get away from the soccer moms.

Sorry about not posting weekly rides. I will from now on.
Not sure of trail condition at this time 2:30 pm Thursday, but willing to bet that trail will be wet or trees down.
Erik's Thursday ride and Murphy Canceled for this week. Feel free to help Pete clear the trail if you can.

Thanks for cancelling the ride JJ. Murphy will be wet for the rest of the day - it got a significant amount of rain this afternoon (~1/2 inch), along with a lot of wind and some hail.
The trail will likely need until Friday to dry out.
Feel free to help Pete clear the trail if you can.
We'll be out working on the trail on Sunday - if there are any issues we'll try and take care of 'em then.

Erik's Thursday night mountain bike ride is looking good at this point in time. 6 pm we leave the lot for a fun no drop ride. Open to all riders and pace is very relaxed everyone is welcome.
jjrsds

I'm going to cancel tonight's ride at Murphy due to wet conditions. I haven't heard back from Pete but I am assuming that the trail needs time to dry and the forecast is calling for more of the wet stuff.
Ride Cancelled

We on for this Thursday depending on weather? If so I am there.

Always and looking for another fun ride. Hopefully weather is not a factor this week. Leaving the lot 6pm, no drop and fun ride.

I wish I could join but I have to get my jerseys from Nita and then do the womans ride at Leb. Have fun.

07-22-2008, 02:26 PM
Wish I could be there JJ but I have to do the womens ride. Have to show off those new jerseys. Next week I think I can be there. Need to check with my other half.

Thursday Erik's ride at Murphy is looking good for this week. Leaving the lot at 6 pm with a no drop pace and fun being the main goal. Last weeks ride was a blast.

If I can ride, me thinks I will join you'll at Murphy and give Leb a chance to breathe...

Ooh, this sounds like fun! I haven't ridden Murphy yet this year. I'll have a better idea Thurs. if I can make it although 6 PM is probably not realistic for me. Maybe i'll catch up or get you on the flip side...
Anybody driving from the South Minneapolis area?
I will probably be down there a bit late but need to hit Murphy. Don't wait for me, I will catch you in the parking lot for a beer after if everyone is still around.

Erik's 6 pm ride looks like a go at this point. Ride may be cut short if trail isn't in rideable conditions. Early trail report is ok at this point. I will be heading out to Murphy now for a full report. I will not be able to post up the final report.
berrywise

I'll be heading down. Fingers crossed the trails will be rideable. If not I'll just have to enjoy a beverage and hang out for a bit.

Thanks to all for a great ride. The heat wasn't bad at all and stopping isn't an option with those pesky little flying blood suckers. Trail was in great shape and I enjoyed the ride and the company. Thanks to all of you.
