:thumbs: We need to do another AF Canyon Night Ride!! That was so much fun, I can't believe how different it was up there in the dark. Mid-Summer, when the temps are getting hot, let's plan something out.

Sounds good to me! Paul already threw out some dates that WON'T work for him, but it looks like the 1st weekend in March would. That's March 2nd & 3rd.

I missed the last AF Canyon night ride, so I'm in on the next one.

As far as Moab goes, March 2nd and 3rd should work for me.

I'm stoked to hit the trails with some experienced riders! I'd take any opportunity to ride something new and I definitely want to explore more Moab. If I can outfit my bike properly this year is like to try some overnight trips also

I was invited on a ride like this a couple years ago, but couldn't make it. :( Have you ridden this route before?

With the route you're planning, do you have an idea of total miles?
Click to expand...

From my house to the first gas stop in Stockton would be about 30 - 35 miles. This would be the most technical section of the ride but really almost anyone can do it you just need to take it at your own pace. From Stockton to Eureka is going to be a stretch on fuel that's where you may need to pack a little extra depending on bike setup. We can take fairly direct routes doing about 60 -65 miles or we can take some of the more fun 4 by 4 trails and go through Black Rock Canyon and I'm guessing 70 to 75 miles. From Eureka we can fuel up again and options are endless to get into Little Sahara but I would plan on another 30 - 40 miles.

Just a heads up for those that are interested in tagging along I'm overweight and don't want to hurt anything to the point where I can't go to work on Monday so I don't push it when I ride anyone that has been riding for a year so would be capable of keeping up with us. I can push the single track sections fairly fast because I've been doing them alot what would have no problem slowing down to anyones pace. After bad crash last year the fast gravel roads are where I have to least confidence so I'm not going to be drifting any corners at 60 + miles an hour.

So basically this is a ride anyone's welcome in invited to do. If you're interested shoot me an email let's get the list going and set a date.

So far the only confirmed person is is my friend and neighbor Andrew.

I am afraid Chimney Rock is going to be a spring ride at the earliest. We have a fun race planned for the Sage Riders National on May 4th....especially loop2. I have picked a lot of course that has not seen much use.

I rode Chimney rock last year about this time and it was great no snow or mud just tacky dirt and rock, (cold) if you stop. a friend of mine checks commuter link cameras in the winter and we go where there is no snow. this year might be different. as far as Sage riders, Id like to do all the Sage riders USRA races, that is If I dont get hurt before then, registered to race Rhino Rally this month. oops, Ill be at Vegas Supercross May 4th.

Planning on some long dual sport rides along with hitting all my local favorites. I'd love if we all put something together for AF.

This year (if my back will ever heal :-\) I've been wanting to get back into the technical riding. I would love to do 5MOH again along with a few of the nasty local trails I haven't ran in awhile. That said I don't really have a bike cut out for it anymore. Wouldn't mind picking up a beater 2T for dedicated trail junk. Should have kept my ATK260 DOH! :rolleyes:

Ugh... just need to ride don't care what I'm on or where it's at lol.
