28 miles is a long trail ride, way to go Mike!

So, do you think it's 36er freindly?

Only if you ride with that monster with a brake, lol. It was a long trail ride, especially with potential of getting lost- high. It fit my style of riding perfectly though, enough climbing and descending to be challenging with tons of sweet xc singletrack. You would have really enjoyed it Nurse Ben, being a fit rider like yourself.

Downhill on a 36er is fun and so fast!

Nice pic of that 36guni, and in a banked turn to boot!

I probably won't see you this summer/fall, but 2013 we'll be out there on a scouting expedition

The only reason we won't move to Ashland is if we can't find work...

Ben,
I'm on the list, waiting patiently for that tire's release. Of course, if you could swing a testing position for me I'd be happy to oblige.

Maybe they need someone to test the tire on decomposed granite sand single track. Whad'ya think?
You will love the trails around here. Perfect for 36 cross country, 36 muni and 26 muni. Let's make sure you find work here.

Hey Mike, are you still up for a multi day ride? Let me know when you're thinking.

aspenmike · 2012-07-19, 09:23 PM

Yes i am, time is the one element that might get us. I just received the CT info. End of August beginning of Sept?

Okay, I need to get the time off, so can you narrow it down to a single week

I don't know that I have your email, so if you could send me a pm with your number and email then we can work out the details.

Anyone else interersted?

munimag · 2012-07-19, 10:07 PM

I'd love to hear the details when they get worked out to see if I could make it.

Just spent a couple of weeks on 36s in Kenya and Tanzania. The Masai tribesmen were intrigues with the unis.

jbtilley · 2012-07-20, 12:55 PM

Starting out on a 36er, now that's brave.

knoxuni · 2012-07-20, 02:47 PM

I rode in the morning before it got hot and before it started to rain for the one millionth time this week.

that is 72.5cm

its the nasty clay mud that turns a almost new try-all into a slick!

Not exactly my ride but a peek at Unicon. I'm uploading the photos every now and then

From a close encounter with a Pelican to 36er Hockey, it was quite an adventure!

Spent the day at Corona Del Mar Beach with the family and took some time to ride around the area. Too many people for my liking. I much prefer a secluded mountain trail.

I recently rode the Manchester to Blackpool charity bike ride, it was 64 miles in total, and i managed to do it non stop in 4 hours 20 mins, with an average speed of 14.8mph.
