in Group Rides, Bike Trips, and Events

Soooo....
Back to my original question, "do we want to do something together as a club or just hook up with a bunch of other fat bastards at the kettles"?

Last I've seen, there is NOT going to be free beer at the kettles :'(. Just a grill to cook on and potluck and bring your own beverage.

Maybe Chuck is on to something. Build trails, Ride, Eat, Drink, and Be Merry (at Cam-Rock of course)

OK I am out of it enough to just realize that this is coming up THIS Saturday. This is getting my vote. Times 10 if I could 

Jeff at CamRock Sport has pledged a free Ale Asylum to anyone who comes out for a ride this Saturday afternoon/night :D
CamRock Sport is holding the First Ever CamRock Fire Festival this Saturday. Check out everything going on here: http://camrocksport.com/first-annual-camrock-fire-festival-2/ Ale Asylum tasting. Tons of specials going on. a full schedule of stuff going on all day. And of course FIRE 8)

The group ride has fallen by the wayside with the work to get the new trail in. I say lets get the group ride going again this Saturday. 3:30p for the first round. If folks want to do a night ride later we can go for round two.

The only question left is if we should let those poor souls without fat bikes to ride in our presence :-*

I think starting a ride at 3:30 is way to late. It's getting dark at 4:30. Would rather see a group ride start at say 2ish.
How about building trail until 1. Break for an hour to get a bite to eat and then ride and then party.
My 2 cents worth. What do other people think?

They will be required to stay 50 feet behind us 

Or 50 feet ahead, which is much more likely!

Rain chance for Saturday.

Otherwise, I'm in!

If I can align some stars and planets I'll be there.  I'm saving a key childcare card for the year end meeting Dec 8th though.
If my rear tire makes it in time I'll bring a fatbike.

We gonna re-do fatbike day properly when the snow comes?  Fatbikes hate global warming.  I'm getting tired of waiting....

How good is the reception with that seat post?

I believe titanium has fairly low conductivity so not great.
Actually geometrically very similar to my 29ers with the low top tube and long post....

This is shockingly similar

Nice steed Scott! Lot's of 9:ZERO:7's popping up. I feel like I started a trend, Or am at the front of a wave. Or something

Is that set up with a Bud front and Nate rear? You have the rear name magically hidden behind your chainstay. What rims are you running?

Thanks Chuck.  10-4 on the tires.  Really built it just for snow riding so we went aggressive as hell on the tires.  We tried a Lou in the back but it didn't fit. 
On just vanilla undrilled rolling darryls.  So far I've only rolled it around the park behind my house.
And yeah, I was at backyard bikes a few weeks ago - and they have become a 9zero7 dealer, apparently they are building LOTS of them for people.

Don't wait for snow Scott. Get out on that bad boy and ride it! Super stiff frame. Climbs like a beast. For the first time in a decade I find myself getting out of the saddle and hammering climbs. Forgot what that was like!
The biggest thing to learn is that tire pressure is everything. Get a good gauge. A one pound adjustment will make a huge handling change. I have played with everything from 5 to 12 pounds. Rock crawling is great at 5 psi. Hard pack trail best at 11. More psi is faster, but harsher and you start to get bounce. YMMV with tire pressure. I carry a pretty big fuel tank

Chuck did you ever post a photo of your 9zero7?

Only on Facebook. Finally figuring out that Tapatalk is the easy way to post pics. Here are a couple. Love the spread!
