WEDNESDAY 11/10/10 GMR/GRR (Peacock Saddle)

Wed 11/10...Back up on GMR to Peacock Saddle (15 miles up). I built up my rear wheel about 3 weeks ago and haven't had a chance to ride it. What better way to test it than GMR? Worked great, I'm still alive. If you ever want to know how well tuned your bike is, ride it up GMR. I hear noises from the bike that I can't/don't hear on the trail.

Met up with some dude Alex on his way to the village training for the Tour De Foothills. Hillbasher was s'posed to ride but worked late so he missed out on the fun. He did show up a little later in his vehicle, right as I was about 2 miles from the finish of the ride. We had a good time talking about the forum ride and events. I felt pretty good and didn't really feel like stopping but I had to do some posing and take a few pics of my "Mr. Beans Mobile" haha!

  1. It's always good to ride with Beanz and Hillbasher especially when its via video and I am sitting on my couch watching you totally rock and me being a total vegetable. Ride on!
