| MTB here. Northeast Scottsdale. Hit McDowell Sonoran area and PMP most. |

Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Roadie in Tucson. This. Mt. Lemmon and the "Shootout" are where you will find me. you guys are effin nuts. Then again ive never ridden a roadbike but they tempt me a bit. Id look like a big gorilla on one though. MTB is effin nuts if you ask me. I've never failed so miserably or crashed so much in one outing than when I try it. And big gorilla roadies are a sight for sore eyes to a lot of us on a windy day. You make great pace line leaders.  |
| I used to MTB 3-4 times a week at mostly South Mountain since I used to work right by there and sometimes Squaw Peak and McDowell around 6 years ago. My 3 kids take up most of my time now a days but I plan to dust off the Intense Spider and get back into shape soon. I really miss biking and being thinner and in shape. It would definitely help with 3 gunning. |

Thats part of the reason I ended up getting into riding. A buddy of mine was a daily rider back about 15 years ago and we got to talking about how after wife and kids he quit and got fat. I dont wanna be that guy :P Hes a better climber than me right now but I always catch (and pass) him on the downhill (on my hardtail).
Its good to know us big guys have a use on road. Id gladly take windsheer for any of you guys! |

LOL..I dont wanna be "that" guy anymore either...hence the 40+ pounds of weight droppage! yeah...Shnipe calls me AZGoat23 now ;) BAAAAAA BAAAAAAA Mgunslinger...Im far west valley as well...but I trek over to PMP and a few other places...I need more ride buddies as the ones I have now have a book of excuses ;) |
| I am just getting back into riding and i have been staying pretty close to my neighborhood but I would love to find Westsiders that would like to do some easy (at first) trail riding. IM me and lets see if we can get something together. until then I will just do more road and canal riding.. Happy Trails |
| AZGoat23 climbs like a mountain goat. Dont let him fool you though.. hes just there to look at you in tight shorts. Riding in the morning if my sore throat and hugent tonsils doesnt make me cry anymore. 845am at the 7th and Thunderbird TH. Heading east from there. |
I know the roadies are the minority here, but these are almost ready to order if anyone's interested. They're race-cut, so they are very form-fitting. http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=7&f=121&t=813998&page=1 |

Yes you will, but only if you are first up the hill on the way out AND win the sprint on the way back into town. |

Any of you planning on doing the Casa Grande Century on Sunday? PMBCAZ Casa Grande Century I am only doing the metric because I fought bronchitis for most of December and just don't have the form to hammer out 100mi at 20mph pace (though I will be looking for a group that does 62mi at around that pace). |

I wish I'd known about that sooner... I'll have to go next year since the schedule is already set for me this Sunday. |
