Any Mtn Bikers on RME?

[Kevin B.]

Good deal. I'll be bringing a friend from work, so that'll make at least 3 of us.

 

[Coreshot]

So this is at Lambert, right?

 

[glockman]

Yep. I have been parking just below the rodeo arena and riding all over from there.

 

[Kevin B.]

Fun trail, thanks for the invite!

 

[glockman]

No problem. I'm glad we found that lower trail (high bench?).

I got pulled over doing 13 over going home ( I very rarely speed). He didn't give me a ticket So my day has been, meet new RME members+good bike ride on new to me singletrack+speeding and no ticket=awesome day!

Did you get pulled over near the cemetery in Alpine? They love that road.

 

[glockman]

No, he was sitting right in front of Bella fitness. I have seen them there before. He wasn't hiding or anything, I just wasn't paying attention. Again, I usually don't speed but I do usually notice police before it's too late. He was cool though, he just gave me a warning. I think that is the second time since I got my license that I have only got a warning.

Near as I can tell, we rode Rodeo to Middle, then that sweet lower singletrack along the creek that doesn't appear to be part of the Lambert system, then we came back to that lower parking lot and rode back up on High Bench. I think.

This morning I biked up the City Creek trail to the Shoreline trail over to Bobsled.

Down Bobsled, which is the funnest downhill I've done around here, down to Chandler st.

Then took Chandler st. over to Terrace hills rd. rode back up to the Shoreline trail then back down City Creek.

Fun 7 mile ride half uphill, half fun downhill.

How is the bobsled this year? Last year it was so washed out you couldn't carry much speed through it. Wasn't much fun.

 

[jpest]

It was decent. You can go as fast as you want to. I love banked curves!

 

[glockman]

I really need to ride bobsled. Interestingly it is on google maps. No one can hide from Google.

Is bobsled better than rush? I've only been on it twice, but rush is fun.

 

[jpest]

I don't know about Rush. Where is it?

 

[benjy]

Bobsled is way more fun than rush... super high banked turns and really flowy.

 

[Coreshot]

I don't know about Rush. Where is it?

Flow trail in corner canyon. There are actually a few flow trails up there, but rush is the only one I've ridden

I rode the Little Cottonwood Trail this afternoon. Its a lung burner, but coming back down is a riot.

 

[jpest]

Did little cottonwood this past Saturday. Jumping the small buried pipline bumps coming down is always fun.

They are fun, usually quite a bit of uphill traffic to watch out for though.

The Little Man has a brand new bike, thinking about taking him to Lambert or Yellow Fork tomorrow. Anybody wanna join us?
